UT is teh no balance.
That theory worked really good for, oh, half the weapons. No balance there. If the ping dropped, so did the number of "balanced weapons". You had to be uber elite to play effectively and consistantly with the goo, and think you could compete with anything that was rapid fire hitscan. Razors were as well, very situational, and unlike the other weapons requiring "a little skill", would require you to have tremendous skill to compete against Rox, or even Flak.
Mini, Snipe, and due to a bug, Pulse were the only weapons in competative UT, Shock, and Rox for suppression, and the rest didn't exist (mind you, this is the DMer speaking). That is not balance.
Dunno where you were going with "In UT2003, almost with every weapon a person will be effective equally", but maybe that equal effectiveness is what "balance" is, and you are proving yourself wrong... What I do know, is that statement is really vague.
Relativity makes pronoun phrases like "a person" really inappropriate to pair with adjectives like "every".
