Then there we disagree. If you maintain that attitude towards it, marking on the AR will always be limited to those that know each other personally, and especially those new to the site (who may of been riding for years to an advanced level) will feel excluded.

I personally felt that the group of markers on AR07 were the "elitest few" for want of better words. But I'd also only been riding for a little over 6 months, so there's no way I'd of wanted to mark at that stage anyway. I still had the feeling of exclusion though.

To answer your question of "would you of felt better if we'd of asked you?" To be frank, no. Not unless such questionning was done publicly, and everyone was invited. Otherwise I'd of turned the offer down on principal, due mainly to the above paragraph.
