A little bit of courtesy would make the Airventure better for all
You have a point. There are many people who are inconsiderate of the impact they have on the earth and the other people around them. There were a lot of people on the grounds this year, and with that many people it is even more important for all of us to remember that we are not at home in our own back yard. The consequences of peoples' selfishness and inconsiderateness is that camping areas fill up and many people who wanted to come to enjoy the airshow are either diverted to other airports or stayed home. Below are two examples of tents set up in the North 40; clearly with the intent of taking up an extra space, thus three families that could have camped with their airplane at Oshkosh this year were unable to.

These Texans felt it necessary to not have neighbors
Attachment 4933
This Bonanza pilot did not read camping guidelines (within the footprint of your airplane) and does not care that this tents prevent two other airplanes from camping in the North 40.
