Not to mention that all of the above requires discussion between people in far-flung timezones. If a resolution could be reached in minutes (by virtue of having a quorum of staff in one place at one time), it would be less of a pain in the ass.
It's all part of the job, but when someone sets out break rules intentionally, and announces it... well, it's a bit annoying and leaves us with little choice, regardless of how we might personally feel about a member.
