Examples of inappropriate behavior include, but are not limited to

A.     use of offensive language or other uncivil conduct, 

B.     intentionally blocking the view of other participants or spectators for an extended period (team members momentarily holding up team signs while directly supporting their team is not considered a violation of this rule.), and

C.     jamming or interfering with the remote sensing capabilities of a ROBOT or the FIELD while in open-access spectator seating areas.

Examples of remote sensing capabilities include, but are not limited to, vision systems, acoustic range finders, sonars, and infrared proximity sensors.

Use of imagery that, to a reasonably astute observer, mimics the AprilTags employed on the FIELD is a violation of this rule.

Examples of particularly contemptible behavior that may result in ejection from the event include, but are not limited to, the following:

A.     assault, e.g. throwing something that hits another person (even if unintended),

B.     threat, e.g. saying something like “if you don’t reverse that call, I’ll make you regret it,”

C.     harassment, e.g. badgering someone with no new information after a decision’s been made or a question’s been answered,

D.     bullying, e.g. using body or verbal language to cause another person to feel inadequate,

E.     insulting, e.g. telling someone they don’t deserve to be on a team,

F.     swearing at another person (versus swearing under one’s breath or at oneself), and

G.     yelling at another person(s) in anger or frustration.

Use of imagery that, to a reasonably astute observer, mimics the AprilTags employed on the FIELD is a violation of this rule.
