Improving Competition/Fun Across Game Types

the whole issue is that this generation is always crying about "I wanna play with my friends".    back in the days most bf2 servers I went on were friendly fire on,  and had auto team balances.  noone complained.  it was all legit players,  and you just banned someone if they were just "too good"  noone needed proof of them cheating and noone cared.   If they were real,  they would prefer to play on servers with higher skilled players anyways,  and they were out there.  Thats how it works in real life too.   change server,  for court or park.   nobody likes to play noobs cause it makes you a worse player.  A competitive player likes to keep his talons sharp.

DICE tried to introduce a shuffle teams vote in BC2,  when they made a comeback on the PC.  and it enraged the community.   They got flamed.  servers got attacked,   and most admins stopped using the beta mod.    Because this generation no longer cares about fair play and competitive matches in a "pub".     they think being competitive is pwning noobs,   and that comp games only have to do with money,  skill level,  or organized tournaments.     

And its because these sort of things are never gonna be up to EA my friend.  They can try to force whatever they want,  but the community of trolls and cheats will just undermine it by creating multiple anonymous accounts or sync dropping into matches.  For example,  they obviously are trying to shuffle teams after every match.   But its obvious that players are still padding stats by sabotaging a team they are on,  for the other side.  and thats been going on in bf since literally the beginning.   Its just now we are forced to play on the same servers as these rejects is the difference from my day.  And its a shame.
