My experience has been that used properly the technical foul is a necessary tool for establishing or maintaining control. Far too many officials are simply afraid of using it.

One additional point on using the T--you must deliver it professionally and unemotionally. Sure, you may be angry, but make sure the delivery, administration, and subsequent interactions with the offender are professional and unemotional. The T will not improve the situation if it feels like the official is lashing out. It's just business. I'm sure you're aware of this, but it never hurts to say it again. Good luck
