It is a pretty standard rule. Take free relief off the green, no closer to the hole you are actually playing. I don't believe there is a penalty involved at all.

You are on the golf course, and you don't want to destroy the course. I have played courses where this comes up from time to time. I would think in many cases it is more of a design flaw than a player flaw.
