Just a comment directed at the soldiers who are skilled in the air. When we have two or three against two or three (which I do enjoy) invariably I am with other ground soldiers and we are fighting two or three air soldiers. what is the point? We are just points for you to rack up. Get out of the aircraft and let's do battle on the ground next time. All of us can battle on the ground but not all of us can battle in the air, the air battle is a real art. See you on the battlefield!

Get off planes and fight, on foot, while you have the advantage, you need very fairplay players;
it's like good things: there are, but not all the time!

Yes, Pegasus is right,most of our pilots do, get out and fight on the ground to even things up, one or two don't though.
This will always be a bone of contention, and always seems to favour the pilots. ( hence the high scores and top positions on leaderboards ), We have to accept this, or play on an infantry only server. Which is a shame if , like , me, Wake is your favourite game. ( watch out for the nutter in the deck gun though lol).

Pilots should be balanced on both sides. Unfortunately, only fighting on the ground will be rare. So a pilot must be switch the team if the other team has none. If you are in the US team I can only recommend. go in a squad. Teamwork is the A & O in a game. Never fly head-on with the Black Hawk to wake in the arms of the enemy. choose a detour.
When good jet pilots are in the air it is sometimes better to walk. Cars are faster but also easier to locate for jets
If you are in china side and have no pilots. do not let China completely alone. At the end there is a bad rape

This is an older threat, but still so relevant. I am not a particularly good player, most of the time a bit above average I would say, but when I see a team falling behind in the points, I switch teams and join.
Imho it is generally important to even the teams when a battle gets very one-sided, which sadly happens a lot on this map, especially when good pilots are all in one team (which also happens a lot for whatever reason, almost looks deliberate).
Maybe better auto-balancing from the server-side could help here?
Problem of course is, when one side just totally exploids it's airskills and then also ignores or insults other players for pointing this out, a lot of players just leave the server and thats the end of a good game.
Sadly a not too rare occurance.
Otherwise: Great job with the Server, LS-team, and it is generally fun to play on your servers!!

You Sir deserve a medal. Unfortunately the best auto-balance there is, is players self balancing themselves.. which like you said is more common than rare, but that's one of the values we try to look into when recruiting for in-game administrators.

Since I started playing BF2 (mostly LS Wake) I have every morning a handful of players joining (ca. 10-20) over the span of, idk, 2 hours but then (unfortunately) leaving all at once because of choppers "raping" spawn points, sometimes jets too when highly skilled. A lot of said players seem to be novice. With that being said: Server would be filled more often and faster thus wouldn't it be better to disable (or infantry only) air vehicles till a certain amount of players are active?

Also disabling choppers and jets when Airfield is captured (or Airfield + 1 (or 2) nearby flags are captured as well) because at this point, really most of the time, the game is pretty much over and the enemy team is just getting slaughtered at flag by choppers and jets which, in my opinion, destroys the Battlefield experience.

Well, in our experience (also looking at other servers) tampering too much with the server mechanics can backfire... at the moment the server is rather vanilla and, welp... what you are describing is a player problem (most often that's wherein the problem lays, betweekn keyboards and chairs!! ), both in terms of the player who is raping as well as the player who can't handle it and is leaving the server (eg. when USMC does not try to cap last flag but circles it to farm kills, and blames those brave soldiers who fight to the bitter end, suggesting to them to just quit spawning).
Who is right? Who is wrong? It will be discussed forever and ever, but that's a behavioral issue that server settings alone might not be able to curb... it's the players that need to understand the consequences of their actions on the server first, and put those consequences ahead / keep them in mind, if they want to play and encourage fair-play. Raping noobs can be funny for one person, but detrimental for the server population.
There is no setting or nerf that will make people understand that... it must be coming from the inside. So, when you do address the situation by forcibly editing server settings (or modifying server values) well sometimes may be good, sometimes may be shit; you try to solve one problem, you have the best intentions in mind, but you end up causing more harm than good. My take is: it would be easier if people changed, not servers.
