Someone can tell me why is that funny?

It's not really funny (your description of them is spot on), but it's a part of the game.  The lesson here is don't follow the roads, especially on the coast, and especially when you see discarded gear around.  It either came off of people they already killed or they put it there to make you stop.  

Exactly what cav guy said.

 

Your problem, op, seems to be you think saying 'im friendly im new' is supposed to give you super powers. It wont. It makes you an easy target for people to ruin your day. You must first assume everyone wants to cause you harm until proven otherwise, and even than its hard to fully trust anyone you dont know IRL.

There needs to be more incentive NOT to shoot other people.  Ruined gear just doesn't do it.  Too many people play this game like it's Call of Duty Modern Warfare Ghost Sniper Elite 420 XXX Game of the Year Edition.  I haven't played that one yet but it sounds like the last 4 iterations of the series.  Maybe if all servers were set to restart every 12 hours and all gear on a dead player was ruined it might make the decision a little tougher.  Also, maybe if the VoN threshold was a little higher (or maybe if there was a 'yell' channel) people could talk to each other before they're close enough to stumble onto one another and blast the other in surprise.

Actually the Yelling as an option is not a bad idea, you should put it into suggestions...
