I've seen this question asked before and there is no straight answer.
It basically breaks down to, be a good guest and be a good host. Or there shall be consequences.

I don't think that the laws of hospitality have ever been stated exact. There may not even be a written law. (You don't learn winter law, after all, you just know it.)
I think, though, that Cat Sith gave the clearest guidelines of how one is to act and the implied consequences.
While I am here I am bound by the same traditions as would apply if I were your invited guest. I will offer no harm to anyone you have accepted into your home, nor take any action which would be considered untoward for a guest. I will report nothing of what I see and hear in this place, and make every effort to aid and assist your household and other guests while I remain.
I suppose I am obliged to comport myself as a proper host, then?
Say, instead, that I am under no obligation to allow myself to be harmed, or remain and give my aid, if you behave in any other fashion. If you began shooting at me with that weapon, for example, I would depart without doing harm, and only then would I hunt you, catch you outside the protection of your threshhold, and kill you in order to discourage such behavior from others in the future.

Oh, I so like Cat-Sith

It probably wouldn't make a good caligraphy wall hanging, though.
... Or, possibly, it would make an excellent wall hanging.

I gotta ask, who is that smug SoB in your avatar pic? I like it :)

Jonathan Strange, from Susanna Clarke's Hugo-winning novel Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell. The picture is from one of their promotional spots when the BBC did a miniseries on it. It's essentially a gigantic opus about magic and Faeries told in an alternate history England during the Napoleonic wars, and written in a style similar to Jane Austin.
It's one of my favorite books.

I so miss Cat Sith, too. I wish he could or would make a come back.
