how long can i stay in the readyroom? as if i can stay there 4ever, and other ppl will do the same, then the server is full, and only 4 ppl are playing.
will this happen? perhaps some ppl will only log onto the server and stay afk in the readyroom, this would suck. is there something like an auto-kick for ppl beeing longer than perhaps 5 minutes afk?

yeah, but they can still hang around in the readyroom and talk or so
If I connect to a game, I'll be <i>playing</i>. If I want to socialize, I visit IRC.

"Hey, aren't we going to play the game? I hear it's really cool!"
"Hmmmm, yeah it sounds good, but right now I'd like to stay in this dope room and look at these cool walls..."
not likely.
and not just a few of us, I'm talking like 15 people :P

How ever you'll notice as soon as you give them arms, legs, knifes and the occasional grenade, they'll chat away quite happily for half an hour, choosing to either stab each other or build stacks. It keeps them busy while they talk, and they can look at the pretty little blood splatters while they wait for others to finish typing/speaking.
Perhaps the ready-room will encourage excess chatter before a game, but there are always ways to stop that... (ie trigger all the doors to shut as soon as the game starts so that anybody who wasted time chatting will be stuck in the RR and their only option left would be to spectate the game)
