I'm sure many of us have had opponents in real life who want to serve while we're still walking back from picking up a ball. When that happens to me in the past I've just let it go. I've committed to next time that happens letting the ball fly past and saying "let"! I will do that everytime until my opponent gets the picture.
But you can't do that in a game...I would actually agree that this warrants a rule since it can be stopped in real life. Since I'm not an admin I can't do anything about it though
Sherlock 117 wrote:The rule for this in real life is that the returner must play to the reasonable pace of the server, and the server must make sure the returner is ready before serving. This typically means your feet are set and you have made eye contact of some sort with the server. However, if you make any attempt to return the serve you are not allowed to claim you were not ready.
