I have found that warning messages are not very effective. Penalty messages are more effective.

I teach HS math and I have a soft part in my heart for students that can’t “get” algebra. But I have little sympathy for those who can’t be bothered to “learn”. We are not abdicating our primary function by taking the time out of relatively meaningless games to teach a life lesson. We are not teaching the Pythagorean Theorem. They should be able to learn that they can only hurt their team when they act like a dick with a well placed FYC.

For those who think that I’ve become incompetent or corrupt with the rare FYC, then they are like those in my class who can’t be bothered to learn. F-them too.
