I have an issue with this way of thinking. If you suspend people constantly for things they've said in the past without breaking any rules, it takes away the need for rules. Just ban whatever people you dont like

If you're late to work, they slap you on the wrist and say 'don't come in late again.' If you don't for a bit, then are late again. They slap you on the wrist again. But if you come in late, they slap you on the wrist, then you come in late again and again, after a few times, they fire you. They can't fire you for being late once, they rarely do it if you're late two or three times. But when the behavior becomes consistent is when you become truly reprimanded. This is the same thing.

He didn't do anything too bad at first. He got told to back off a bit. He continued onward instead. When the behavior became his consistent behavior, he was reprimanded for it.
