I think humans have the intelligence needed to know how to act. If they disobey knowing there was a rule and they dare to fight against the results of there behavior, why should we care?

If they disobey without knowing there was a rule and accept the sentence, fine, they are intelligent beings that will not redo it.

I think it is better to leave players be and let them have fun. If they start going on a danger zone, just watch and see if they are stupid enough to step on the mine.

Of course, anticipation is a must on some occasions. For example, just after muting someone, another person starts talking about the same topic just to spill oil on the fire with a sarcastic "I'm innocent" attitude, slap him straight back!

My vote is intervention.
