If you are not prompt on leaving the field, or once the field is set up, and most of the other teams have cleared, if you are still working on your bot and not finishing up, the Ref's will notice you.

As a RI and a Ref, what I would do is:

Towards the end of practice matches, make a comment to the Driving Team. (think of this as your first warning).

During Qualification matches, make a comment to the LRI and suggest that the robot be reinspected for "Mechanical, End of Match" on the Inspection Check List. The LRI watches matches, so I'm sure it would not take much convincing. (this is your second warning).

The Refs usually eat lunch together and discuss stuff. I'm sure offending robots would be mentioned. If anything happens after this point, the robot has been warned.
