    Fully customized ones might be problematic. Think of the options we would need to censor.

    Maybe something could be tapped that read the main stat and presented an icon for that?

    Meaning, heavy on Stamina? Show a little health sign and so on.

    Balanced could be an = sign.

    Definitely something that requires kind of a bit to implement, but definitely interesting.

    Funny story on that topic, a friend works for a large video game developer who outsource some of their QA to eastern Europe. A bug was entered regarding the profanity filter and included a screen shot of the word "profanity" being used. Apparently the QA thought the purpose of the profanity filter was just to prevent usage of the word profanity.

    I think that your real problem might be that you are not running a Mic. Part of the way that this game is built is to encourage teamwork and also to use your Mic to help promote that team work in a positive way. I would recommend searching for groups who use their Mic. If one does not like to use a mic, then maybe team play is not his/her thing. In which case I don't know why it would matter what the other squad mates are using Gear Wise. I agree with Matt, This would just be another thing for people to Abuse and I think it would ultimately look unprofessional and the majority would not use it to display their gear set.

    I very rarely run into the problem of Non-English speaking on my servers. Which servers are you on?

    This could come in the form of a logo (not just the base gear sets...but a range of them to allow for more options) that are ONLY visible to the members of the fire team. There really should never be an option outside the fire team...ever....for people to see what gear you are wearing outside of the recognition of the items themselves.
