sparring in class

I was wondering...do you guys spar often in class? I hear that some schools dont let colored belts spar each other - how about your school?

Hurting others

Do you think it is okay to use kicks and punches on others (in sparring) if you know you do not know how to control those kicks and puches? Is it acceptable to throw wild kicks as hard as you can without any regard for the safety and wellbeing of others? If your school allowed "beat up" matches like this, would you still train?
