Should be:

You're right. At the time I thought it would be less of an issue if I asked him politely to stop. I was wrong.

Your is to show possession. As in, "Is that your fruit?" In telling someone that he is correct, you need to address that person with the (pronoun?) you, as in "you are correct." Or, with the contraction, "you're right."

Obligatory on-topic contribution:

Yes, I have tossed fans before. The proper procedure is to have the game mgmt deal with the person(s). On occasion, I've also gave them a heads up that "if that person keeps up the attitude he's portraying right now, he will be tossed." The intent is to be preventative. So be it if game mgmt uses that info to decide to try and talk the guy down. So far, that mechanic has always worked for me.
