Uneven teams, in terms of numbers of players. Has to be one of my top peeves about the game at the moment, and it will always happen due to…

I think by checking the team balance, and if uneven by >= 2 (we can ignore 6 vs. 5 etc.), the last player to join the team with the advantage is moved to the opposite team. Maybe with some sort of credit award for being moved…
I’ve seen it in other games where you get asked if you want to move across, and the identification of the player could be worked out by the ‘teams’ computed skill to make it more complicated.
As I find it ironic at the moment a player is actually penalised for switching teams to make teams fairer.
There is also the UI side that it isn’t always obvious in game as to what the team balance is as pressing tab. You just see two list of players, and at a glance I guess seven boxes could look like five…
Obviously not appropriate for comp servers.
