No, they should warn you and then call it... If they don't call it the previous 5 times, then it shouldn't be thought of as wrong. This is a pretty easy concept for anyone with a brain.

You can't be serious with the refs being demoted... seriously, if you think that you are not a serious person and obtuse with the history of the league and official making terrible repeated calls.

I'm a baseball umpire and it's like a pitcher that's using an illegal windup with no runners. We don't just let it go and then wait until there's a runner on third and then balk him for it. We alert his coach to it when we first spot it to AVOID balking in a run. It's called preventative umpiring, and is a tool to help manage the game.
