And do you really want people knowing who you are by having you stand up the whole match and block their view of the field? You can ruin things for everybody behind you by standing (you weren't even cheering while standing, which I find almost completely inexplicable, if you want a Team Spirit award, and which could excuse your standing ALL MATCH).
There is a thread (I believe it is called "Standing, cheering, and required team actions") on this subject, started last year. Read it. Most people on CD seem to agree with me: sit down during the matches, stand any other time you please, make as much noise as you want any time.

I wish you knew my team.
Back on topic shall we? Saveing seats? Ok. I agree that saveing seats isn't the best thing to do. It's wrong but people still do it. There are sometimes problems and there are sometimes not. I will repeat what others have said: If you want it to be inforced, tell FIRST. If no one tells FIRST than there isn't a problem, right? If you want to see a change, everyone on this thread construct a letter and email it to FIRST, to Dean, to whoever needs to see it. Tell them how you feel about it, and tell them you want it enforced. Here I'll start it for you!
FIRST/Important person:
Members of Team 47's Forum comminity have expressed their opinion about enforceing the "no saveing seats" rule. It has been ignored my some teams and has been a problem in some occations. We ask that you consider enforceing the rule, or to make us all aware of the reason why the rule can not be enforced.
You all can fill in the rest. I'm not going to send it because I have never seen a problem with it. If you want to make a change, be the change.
