I call my IM technicals by the book when it's directed at me, I will let some of the language technicalities slide a bit as long as it's frustration and not directed at anyone, but nothing else. I range on the high end in IM technicals as well and I have no qualms about sending a guy off if he's out of line, I've gone with flagrant Ts in IM. Maybe someone needs to get tossed and suspended all season to get people in line. I don't worry about the consequences for other people in their actions, because if they're dumb enough to get tossed, they deserve what they get, my standard won't change.
Another thing that I've done when I work IM games is that I won't be as formal with my warnings as I am in HS games. If someone pulls something and tries to show me or my partner up, they will get an unpleasant earful from me about it and I will address the action by admonishing it. Often this seems more successful than the formal warning, then T procedure.
