    Zergs can be bad, we all know it.

    One trend I've been noticing when asking people why not go elsewhere was that:
    :eek:

    ...

    So yeah, it would be nice if this wasn't the case: no progression was given above 55% (or perhaps 60%) pop, and it was clearly stated in the directives with highlighted text. It would encourage at least some people to break off from their zerg.

    I believe no one-click solution exists to the zerging problem, but it can be kept being reduced with small steps like this.

    So, using the 60% rule:
    in a 12 v 12 battle, one side picking up 2 extra people negates any rewards the whole of that side might get for the attempt?
    4 people for 24 v 24.
    9 people for 48 v 48.

    Then make it 75% or even more, you know this is not the point of the post.

    If you overpop a base by a zerg (usually speaking of 75%++, then you do not care for capture XP at all...

    From a certain perspective, it does. You're set to establish the comparative numbers that will define a "zerg" for every player and will afford penalties. It's no longer just some tally above 50% which differs in count a bit from person to person and is merely an acceptable target.
