Please is a word of request, "I think" expresses a personal opinion. If you really want me to change all the "please"s to "I think"s just to avoid confusion, I'll do it.

Regarding templates, I don't know whether vandals do, but in all likelihood, they're more likely to think we mean business if we have a more professional looking warning posted.
