Lets not act like being inspired by Soap Mactavish is any sillier than any other players reasons.

there's a difference between dressing up as a TF-141 guy or a s.t.a.r's commando and dressing for the situation.
I use various camo's and webbing sets tailored to whatever terrian I may be fighting in, wether hot or cold, wet or dry, desert, wooded or urban I'm appropriately geared for the battle and "combat effective" (you should read up on what that means)
guy's who show up wearing a skull balaclava, jeans, and a grey softshell that's supposed to be worn in COLD WEATHER (not to mention you stand out pretty well in the woods) and hefting an mp5k at a game in a hot wooded area in the middle of May are clearly retarded and have no idea how to prepare, and in prettymuch every case, act in combat...
you show up wearing gear like that, that's clearly not meant for that arena, pouch for pouch a replica of a dude from a video game, weilding a weapon that clearly won't do the job, Imma treat you just like the moron who show's up wearing a Clone trooper costume
airsoft is simulating combat, not video games, I believe you have this sport confused with cosplay
