Yeah, talking to them is definitely an option. However, as I said before, getting kicked, for me personally, and through experience with how other users respond to both situations, carries more weight than being talked to about it. And there are also situations where I would deem a kick more appropriate than talking to them about it. I have never had an issue with a mod who refused to stop after being kicked from chat for something, and there's absolutely no reason for this option to be removed.
