if this ever happens i'd be happy to help the team or staff to decide who is worthy of "Official Rider" status. personally i'd scan through suggestions and analyse the riders ability to pull off certain tricks that are notoriously difficult to do, consistency in fast ghosts overall or how high up the leaderboard they are generally, how well they recover from mistakes or bad landings. and also take into account how good they are without the use of spacebar ( i can tell the difference when watching ghosts ) i imagine some people use it 100% of the time and others use it occasionally just for difficult sections of tracks. or like myself 50/50 some times i like to test myself without using it once, this way i've found i'm usually 1-3 seconds slower on most tracks.. on rare occasions it's worked out faster. when i do use it on an average 1 minute long track, i tend to tap it 5-10 times to get my bearings. i have no idea how other riders make their ghosts, but i can recognize all aspects and take this into account. so yeah Char and other staff, i'm on board with this idea so give me a shout if this is being considered.
How to get official and the standards have to be changed, but this is a good idea that has been hovering around for some time. With the addition of the racing forum section the FRHD staff has been hearing the pleas of the ghosters and is paying more attention to riding. Char himself has told me about some things he wants to do eventually for ghosters. I think that a few top ghosters should get to help choose who is worthy. These would be mR..A and darksmoke11 as well as F1N and Backtwice if they haven't gotten in too much trouble yet.
