yeah. i mean... if you ask people to be civil... you might well be entailing they are being uncivil (but that seems to fall out of grice's maxims of conversational implicature rather than as a logical entailment) and it don't seem to be uncivil to imply (in grice's sense) that someone is uncivil...

i mean... you are just reminding them to be civil... which is perfectly civil... right?
