The Watchtower (study edition), “Questions From Readers — Is the marking described at 2 Thessalonians 3:14 an action taken by the congregation or by individual Christians?”
“Previously, we said that this was direction to the elders. If someone continued to ignore Bible principles in spite of repeated counsel, the elders might give a warning talk to the congregation. … However, an adjustment is needed. Paul's counsel evidently refers to an action that individual Christians should take”
Marking becomes an individual decision, no longer a congregation warning talk.
