Just a comment on issuing warnings. As others have said, if you can handle it with a warning do it. The more experience you get, you will see different extremes of behavior and know that some things cross an obvious line and you must respond with the T - no warning. As you get more experience in thinking this way, you can probably develop your own list of what crosses your line. If it is really long, you may want to move the line. But generally, it has to be right for you.

If the behavior doesn't cross your line but is beginning to push your buttons, you need to give the warning. Unless your reffing experiences are way outside the norm, you will end up giving far more warnings than Ts and you will be "calling what is obvious." It makes the game better for all.
