No one&#x27;s suggesting that mistakes should be dealt with in the same way as predatory behavior. The article makes this explicit in its specimen code:<p>&gt; [I]f the organizers feel a particular individual is the cause of more than one complaint, and does not self-correct, they may exclude that person from the event.<p>There&#x27;s room here to deal with someone who&#x27;s merely boorish or ignorant without throwing them out of the con; with such a person, a word on the subject of minimal standards of behavior will generally suffice. In cases where that doesn&#x27;t suffice, and the harassment continues, I am much of the opinion that the host&#x27;s responsibility to his blameless guest outweighs that to the misbehaving one; sure, it&#x27;s a shame if someone gets booted out of a con because he genuinely isn&#x27;t equipped to behave in a minimally decent fashion, but it&#x27;s much <i>more</i> of a shame if people feel like they can&#x27;t safely go to a convention at all because there&#x27;s a significant chance they&#x27;ll be harassed by fellow guests.
