I realize that. However, you have to take both parts together. Separately, you can make a case for doing anything you want to. I'm agreeing that it's professional, but I'm not sure it's gracious. You obviously think it is, and you may be right. I think it isn't, and I may be right. Because either of us could be right, and because we have opposite views on that, where do you go from there? Do you a) ban a potentially helpful member who hasn't learned the norms yet or b) allow a troublemaker to stay until further trouble is caused or c) let 'em stay and guide them to the safer roads/methods?

Or, to put it another way, is it more gracious to let us all talk without worrying about people who cause trouble or to help those people see why they're causing trouble and fix their behavior?
