People make idle threats, and overblown statements, all the time. But on a show like BB, in a working environment, in a school, in a social group, if you have been warned about your behaviour and language in the past, you will be treated harsher for any lapses.

You're missing the point. Threatening behaviour is not tolerated, previous warning or not.

But then the rules state housemates are forbidden from discussing nominations and they receive food and drink every night despite living on "rations" so I'm really not surprised.
