haha that is a good one! I wonder if the faire participants mind or feel like it hurts their immersion.
In my experience, you might annoy the "hardcore" ones, but most people won't be bothered. Hell, people may honestly join in, so long as you aren't causing any problems.
A lot of the Faire folk I have met are just happy people are participating and having a good time, and if you put effort into a costume, even better.
Considering what goes into the more hard-core outfits, they deserve respect for their dedication. And there are lots of outlets for that too, which is great (e.g. SCA).
However, if someone gets their tabbard in a bunch because some sci-fi cosplayers ruined their sense of immersion, at what is arguably a pay-to-enter medieval-themed shopping mall, they may deserve what they get.
These people are the backbone of every Faire. Huzzah!
