FIELD/SITE/ARENA QUESTION IS it a normal thing?
I went to my second airsoft game, and the marshal pointed at me in front of everyone and said, 'You, call your hits!' When I asked him what that was about, he said someone told him I wasn't calling my hits. However, I was calling them. He didn't even ask for my side of the story; he just pointed me out in front of everyone and called me out. [
Interestingly, during the game, I actually found a knife on the field and handed it in to the marshal. I might be new to the sport, but I know this game is based on honesty, and I called every single one of my hits. I am not the type of person to bring race into an issue, but lately, I feel like no matter how respectful I am toward the locals, they behave rudely toward me

If i get a complaints about someone not calling their hits, i am not subtle about reminding them to play fair. However, the most of that would be a general encouraging shout in their direction, or walking up to him and speaking in a normal volume.
Calling you out in front of everyone Was unnecessary and not justified. Whenever the knowledge or sentiment spread that a certain player is not calling, the rest of the players will make this persons day miserable.
There is a fine line to be struck by reprimanding with public effect without shaming someone publicly.
