Not saying when I definitely would, but like I said, it's getting close.
Not even remotely close. I would not fish this rule out of the book unless someone was ejected and simply wouldn't leave or stop the tirade, and you felt there was no way to continue the game.

I strongly don't believe this rule was intended to apply when the offenders were all different people.
