No, no, what the Deej is saying, in his slow and duh-duh way pertains to the post regarding what to do when such action is taken by an umpire. The poster was concerned that the players would stop, or ask for help, etc. Hence, "the players are required to know the rules" or whatever he said in his near drunk status.

Kidding, Deej, kidding.

Point shows where the OBS occured, vocalization announces the rule violated, add the appropriate sign (if your rule set requires or suggests) such as the fist clenched to the side.
