12 hour side switching

[The Fugitive]

I've never been able to take a screen shot of a 400-500 person roster in one shot.  How do you do that?

He says its at night when there aren't that many people on.

I still haven't seen any evidence on this "switching to join the horde" other than the paranoia that you post. Show us screen shots of before and after of at least 15-20 guys switching to join the horde.  

well I tell you want, you guys prove that there's no fights and that's why you need to change every two hours.

As I said before, if the side switch rule was to balance the sides, it has failed. I personally believe that effect of ENY should be jacked up significantly then lower the side switch time. If all people can fly is 109es and spit 1s, they will be more inclined switch to the lower side.

here is what happened tonight...

You could always switch sides and join the Horde...

I would really be glad to have a higher eny.  I hate eny, but  I also hate the fricking people that switch to cause it.  if purpose of eny is to help balance the sides, then go with higher eny and perhaps 6 hour switch. whenever a country has 40% of the players it's eny already should be above 20.

I cannot think of a single incident of masses of folks switching to the high # side, for whatever reason.

If they are switching to gain perks, then charge perks for the switch. If hordes sre swithing hoping for 25 perks to be on the country that wins then charge 50 pekrs to switch sides for each switch after the "free" one within 24 hours. I think there are enough folks with the desire to fight against the horde , they would balance things out in #s or skill.
Speaking for myself IF I switched and had hordes follow me than I would switch back, and I'd pay perks for it!! At some point, someone's gonna run out of perk cash   

Switch countries at will and charge perks for the privelage

Which perks would this come out of?  Perhaps we could have it come out of "OTHER" perks which are gained from Gunner position kills in Buffs, CV's, Shore Guns & Manned Ack?

Idk if they are or aren't TBH.  The only guy that says it, and says it repeatedly, is semp.

You arent serious, are you?
All this paranoia is hilarious.

Take them from the only perks that anyone cares about, "fighter perks" spend the perks that hurt or don't switch,  easy

I think most could care less about actual balancing, we mostly care about abundance of targets

Everybody I know switches to where there is more red, which by default, is typically the lower number side.  I don't know of anyone who switches to fly with the horde like you propose but I don't know for sure.  You are the only one on the boards that I have heard speak of it though.

i've seen it happen a few times over the past month. it's not a very large number, just enough to throw the balance out of whack and it only happens when one side is not far from winning the war. last time i saw it happen, 20 or 30 jumped from bish/rook to knits when knits only needed 2 bases to win the map, by that time a good number of bish must have been sent to bed and it ended up something like bish 84, rook 132, knits 168.

nobody was switching to bish for whatever reason...once the map reset a lot of people from rook and knit logged off.
