If you limit the people to a team that needs people or try to balance it then people cant play with their friends and get mad or they cross-team.

Teams are great if there are like 900 people playing with 300 on each team.

The reality would be that if 900 people were playing, 500 would be on the winning team, 300 on the second best and 100 on the worst.

It wouldn't be one guild with 100 people pushing you and your guild around but a 500 person team of people with many guilds working together against you if your not on the right team.
I thought the same thing about Blue back in December of '09. No way can a player-run emulation with 100 people work! There won't be anyone to group with! The economy will be non-existent! Nobody will enjoy it! Doom and gloom!

Thankfully I played anyway, Blue grew rapidly and all my fears were unfounded. So don't be surprised if a teams server functions just fine, or even draws in a fresh group of bodies. We can't predict what's really going to happen, so lets see how this plays out.
