One issue is that Tibet cannot actually be punished unless he self-inflicts the punishment. He has bureaucratic rights on this wiki. The chances of him self-inflicting punishment are not very high, so it is probably smarter to discuss things civilly rather than calling for somene's head.

I actually prefer if we could talk things out and avoid punishments for everyone! Often times the most common infractions are when someone comes into chat or posts on the wiki without first reading the policies. That is why when they do this in front of me I never punish and instead explain. Teach a person to fish... and all.

The only punishments I try to mete out are for those with repeated greivous violations of policy or the general vision of the wiki.
