Although I'm firmly of the opinion that if a rule doesn't make sense anymore it
ought to be removed, the idea of run stations starting to throw out "please
spot me" at the end of every nth exchange feels... distasteful to me. (And I
am an unabashed lover of assistance!)
Self spotting feels even more distasteful.
Perhaps before calling for such changes there ought to be an attempt by the
Committee, clubs, and community to encourage greater use of the automatic spot
on S&P feature?

I am not sure where the prohibition against asking to be spotted came from.
Perhaps it is time to remove that from the rules? Or go even one step more
and allow self-spotting.
We sure noticed the lack of rate until after a spot here at PJ4Q this
weekend.
