Hahahah Don't shut up
You are free to say how you feel. The fact that we are staff, does not mean we are always right
.
You do have a valid point there. However, as counter argument, al the servers are voteable. So, when you are in a practice with some guys, you can simply vote the sessions through to the race. Then do the first 2 laps orso, and restart the race. That way, you can have perfect practice.
You see, what we try to do, is get the most out of our actions. It's always a choice between admin work, and member enjoyement. We feel, and believe me, we have talked a lot about this, that the way we set up the servers now, and the amount of servers online (always something on), enables our members to practice every aspect of the race, before the race starts. Also, it is in the most effective way for us admins to setup, and the most safe way for members to have the actual race.
It's a well thought out choice we have made. Thats why we (in this thread Ross and me), are on 1 straight line with opinions.
Last, there is always the thread to meet each other, as linked in some posts above. If you really want to do something special, or use some kind of class we as RD not use regularly, you can always arrange a "race date" there
