Is this considered camping?

So i sometimes when the survivors are overly altrustic. Lets say i hook someone in the basement as Wraith. I bing bong and leave the shack and go about midway across the map then turn around and go back. Midway they get an unhook. I down the hooked and go after the unhooker and down them. Hook them wherever and if the downed guy is stilk down hook him too. Is this considered to be a bad thing?

    If you know 1 or more people are waiting for you to leave, it's perfectly fine to either hunt them down directly or let them do the save and down them quickly afterwards. The only camping most people hate is when you know everyone isn't nearby (or don't care) and just sit there waiting the 2 minutes for survivors to come.

    You hooked the guy in the basement and left, you're wraith, you're fast, you can afford to leave, dipping back to see if anyones going for it is fine as well, since a hooked person is like flypaper, and will attract a person. You even then slug the unhooked person to chase the unhooker, giving the team time to pick them back up.

    All you are doing, is capitalising on your strong position of having a man in the basement, and even then not abusing it by just rehooking the guy instantly but instead giving him a chance to escape during your other chase. Anything that happened to him is purely a product of poor teammates unsafely hooking or not picking him back up

    So yeah of course you camped and tunneled, you played a killer so duh /s

    Dude; salty Survivors will claim you camped if you exist in the same game as a hooked survivor.

    Or live next door to a Killer currenly playing DBD.

    Or you hook a Survivor.

    Or you log into DBD and pick to play Killer.

    Do what you gotta do. Personally I feel hooking the person who was just unhooked is a very douchey thing do. Nothing more frustrating from a survivor perspective, if I knew where the others were I'd go for them

    In my opinion it is kind of camping. There is no really "good" or "bad" thing to do, I mean, it is a game. I also go back to the hook, if they unhooked and I couldn't find anyone else to go after in that time. But I usually don't down the unhooked one, but try to find the unhooker instead and go for them. If I can't find the unhooker fast enough, I'd go for the unhooked one again, because this would be sadly bad gameplay from the survivor side if they don't give me another target and who else would I be supposed to go after?

    But usually I avoid downing the unhooked one, because I feel bad for them. When I play survivor, getting tunneled is the most frustrating thing for me. It can destroy the whole fun, especially if it happens right at the beginning and the killer has no real reson to. I just don't want to be that kind of a killer. That's why I made this rule for me (if the're disrespectful / or really toxic, I'd break this own "rule" and wouldn't care if I tunnel or not). As long as they play normal, I don't tunnel or camp. But this is something you have decide for yourself.

    I do slug them and get the unhooker. It kinda starts an effect where 1 is down. Another goes to help the slugged. While i go after another surv. Thats 3 people not doing anything. Plus its not my fault if the teammates are bad and dont help the slugged person up. I play both sides and i hate that too but i can see why someone would.

    I consider it to be good gamesense, not camping, if you decide to head back to the hook after patrolling some nearby generators. Or if you head back to the hook after receiving the unhook notification.

    Not camping, just good sense/ predicting survivor's play.

    As a survivor I always wait a bit for the killer to be gone gone. Can't count how many times killers come back to check the hooked survivor. Its smart, but as a survivor you can be smarter ^^

    Unfortunately too many people rush things and like to farm people off the hook when the killer is still in the area... and then the killer gets called out for camping/tunneling :(
