Only option for a decent balanced teams is players choosing their team without it being related to their race or deity. A simple /jointeam 1-3 command upon character creation and login would be ez. Player shouldn't be able to exp or even move until they've selected their team.

As it's already been mentioned in this thread, the developers of this game put their heads together and after serious discussion came to the conclusion that teams were better when they interacted with lore and had purpose, perfectly balanced or not. If the original creators of this game, who put in a lot of effort into making these team servers work, had decided against randomly selecting a number at character creation I'm pretty sure we can assume it's because it's a horrible idea.
Things don't have to be identical to be balanced. You and I don't live in the same city, work at the same company, or hang out with the same people. You might be taller, hate sports, and be really into vegan living. We're probably complete opposites, but when it comes down to the important things I bet there is a similar balance in what we want and how we live in-general. This same concept applies to how a teams server with differences can still be balanced and enjoyable. They don't need to be identical in order for them to function on par with each other.
That being said, I don't think bards and shamans can be restricted to just one team though. Which is probably why the SZ deity-based distribution worked.
