[Avodah] Monetary Damages?

[Joel Rich]

>From R’ A Lichtenstein: Thus, they have also said: “He who chops down his
plants, even though he is not permitted etc?” Also, the entire discourse
about he who tells another] “Tear my cloak, break my vessel or my hand or
my leg” (BK 92a) deals only with the liability to pay or the lack of it.
However, it is certainly prohibited and the permission of one’s fellow is
of no avail with regard to this.

ME IIRC there’s a tshuva concerning jousting (Purim?) that holds one not
liable for damages due to implied consent. Does this imply that the
jousting itself is really prohibited?
