When feedback is repeatedly ignored by a long-standing colleague, it may be time to pull out a different rabbit from your bag of tricks. Teammates who fail to respond or course correct after consistent feedback need a stronger message. While confrontation may work to pry them loose from their resistance, many leaders take an entirely different tack to drive the feedback home.
Ah great discussion point. I’m not so sure though. I think there’s a real danger that it’s simply perceived as a bit of fun and actually you are accepting the bad behaviour and trivialising it.
You also need to take heed of how this is seen by the rest of the team. Do they see you taking their bad behaviour seriously? Is that undermining the team morale.

Lots to consider.
