    Depends how you want to play the game. Both have advantages and disadvantages and both are fun :D

    With, and Why not? they Can offer the point of realism that like if you had jacket or suit or heavy shirt on. and hey are just more fun than average clothing.

    May do a bit of gi later this year, but I don't like it.

    The gi OR some type of upper body apparel can come in handy... Lapel chokes, sleeve chokes, extra grip (when you or your opponnent are sweating),etc.. It can also be used against you. I prefer both.

    Hmm, no gi, dobok, etc...naked martial arts. Might work for me :D

    I'll just wear a dobok or just those white plain pants or black and fight without a top or wear those shorts like the Muay Thai/Kickboxers wear.

    Yes a gi can be useful....

    If you don't mind fighting with a noose around your neck....

    :D

    As a newbie in BJJ I find the gi to be a great learning tool...I get choked out all the time.

    for me to do anything, I need to do it correctly and I can't rely solely on strength to escape because of the grip advantage it gives opponents.

    everything is much easier when I take the top off and go with just a rash guard/underarmor.

    Wander around on a friday night in a martial arts uniform, and you'll soon be fighting in a uniform.

    Personally, whichever.
