Thanks!
P.S. Where are the official FRC forums were I can get official answers to questions?

Well <G31> states
<G31> is in place primarily for safety. It also includes (prohibiting robots from)
touching a FEEDER or FIELD structure through the FEEDING SLOT., and <G57> states
During the TELEOPERATED PERIOD, FEEDERS may enter LOGO PIECES onto the FIELD by using the FEEDING SLOTS or by throwing the LOGO PIECE over the top of the FEEDER STATION wall. LOGO PIECES may not be thrown around the side of the FEEDER STATION wall. Violation: PENALTY. However, neither of those specify whether or not the feeder's arms can go through the slot. Nonetheless, because the feeder will technically be breaking the plan of the game, I would say it would be against <G55> (
During the MATCH, TEAM members must stay within their assigned stations.), and would be illegal. I would suggest asking it on the Q&A.
