The problem we always had though, is if Vanu started losing, people that hate losing would log off the Vanu, and get on their Terran Republic or New Conglomerate toons and just help blast us into the dust. I'm pro-faction restrictions, but I don't think having a 1 character limitation is the answer. Just restrict that specific server to the initial faction chosen, as Dark Age of Camelot did.

Yeah I would hope (and assume) that they would do at least that.

It seems completely dumb to let people just switch sides whenever they were losing. Almost every game I can think of (especially FPS) have something for team balancing etc.
