If they are paying attention, they will get the message with little to no effect on the possession. But continually hanging around their huddle and using your voice is craziness, imho.

There are officiating tools available. Use them.
Yep. I think I've only actually used the ROP procedure once this year (Actually sat the ball down). I've done what you're describing several times. If the throw-in team is lollygagging around and doesn't act like they care how quickly they get there, just set it down. That usually hurries them up.
