My opinion is if it's affecting your ability to concentrate on the game, it needs to stop. If it's getting personal and you can't tune it out, it needs to stop. It's up to you.
Some refs never hear the fans. I tend to listen for the entertainment value, but eventually tune them out as the game progresses.
Again, though. If it's personally abusive, or if it's affecting your ability to concentrate on the game, have game management deal with it. GM may very well give the fans a chance to calm down before giving them the boot.
