Okay, this is threshold interesting. But, what I don't get is -- why the *partial* measures? If these miscreants have proven themselves undesirable in the community, why send an *equivocal* message? Seems to me the best way to say "You're no longer welcome" is an outright banning. If it were me, I'd wanna know, so that I might, as they used to say in the Old South, "cotton on". This sig displacement things seems to send the message that they are *conditionally" welcome, which, given what you said about the little likelihood of reconciliation, is simply not the case. You can't have it both ways. I think you should let folks move on, by giving them the courtesy, the basic respect of a clear message. Say, "get lost" if that's what you mean/want.
