I'm not a member of MRA. I don't know what brought this about at their club. But I can hazard a guess.
I strongly suggest that you sit down with one of the officers at MRA and ask him about it. LISTEN to what he says and think about the situation from their perspective. Club leaders have very few levers with which to change members' behavior.
I can tell you about the situation at another club. At the outdoor range of this club, some members have repeatedly been firing high, damaging the outdoor backstop. After a significant amount of volunteer work was performed to repair the damage, within weeks there were fresh holes in it. All it takes is a single round to leave the range and a tragedy can happen (along with the likelihood that the range will be shut down forever).
So how does the club leadership beat common sense into the heads of the knuckleheads who are doing this? One way, which I suspect MRA has chosen, is to require each and every member to come into the club and get a refresher on the rules and an up close and personal inspection of the damage. It is usually impossible to determine just who caused the damage, so the only thing you can do is to bitch at everyone.
Is it time consuming? Yes, much more so for the volunteer officers than for the members, most of whom don't do squat and now bitch about having to give a whole 30 minutes of their time. The club leadership will be spending many hours of their own time doing the requal, trying to ensure club safety. And the club leadership are doing all this work with no complaint.
If you've got a better solution, I strongly suggest that you go to the MRA leadership and volunteer to implement that solution. The only reason that these clubs survive is that the club leadership spends many hours of their own time running the club. In many clubs, the same 6-12 people do all the work. They have and still are giving back to help ensure we have places to shoot. Have you contributed as well?
