How do you report players that tell people to kill themselves?

Curious as to what the best way to do this is. I remember on a DEV live stream they mentioned that this kind of abuse will 100% be taken care of. How do you do it. I have screenshot and link to the players steam account.

    Put the screenshot link in the report, but seriously tho' they are just words on a computer screen, just get over it

    I just told him to put the link of the screenshot in the report, and at the same time, an advice, they are words on a damn screen, they CAN'T hurt you

    "Get over it" is essentially saying he's at fault for giving a crap.

    Just report them in game. Chat logs are saved. No need to screenshot it.

    If someone is actually threatening you, you should contact support (https://support.deadbydaylight.com/hc/en-us) immediately. Report them in game as well. This will make it easier to find the match you're talking about.

    Exactly, the fact that nobody gets banned for such horrendous behaviour speaks volumes of where the devs are at with this. One of the most toxic communities in all of gaming history hands down.

    The in-game report is a good idea, but if they are way over the line then take a screenshot and report them directly to the platform provider (Steam, PSN, Xbox live).  Steam has a zero tolerqnce policy for hate speech, etc and unlike BHVR they WILL ban for the it on the first offense.

    People do get banned for it. I personally dealt with the report the OP is talking about. OP can confirm if you don't believe me, this chat log will sound familiar (names removed for anonymity):

    Person 1: [bad words]
    Person 2: gg
    Person 2: dunked
    Person 1: just wanted the bbq hook
    Person 1: [BAD WORD]

    100% serious, we see chat logs, report them in game, it will be dealt with.

    Are you telling me you guys are ACTUALLY starting to ban people in the harassment category? Heck I might even come back if that's the case. About time somebody started holding people accountable for their behaviour. This community has one of the worst reputations ever, the toxicity needs to stop.

    BHVR just hired a whole team of ACMs (associate community managers) just to handle reports. It's very real.

    Do they even work on PS4? Are you telling me I may be able to turn my message and friend settings back to public now? Lol

    Obviously you're the mentally challenged one if you think that words are meaningless just because they're digital. Not everyone can just get over it, and telling them to do so isn't helpful in the slightest.

    Well I figured that they had made it obvious that they can take it. Since obviously words can't hurt them.

    Kiddies are the one's saying it though, that's neither here nor there. It should never be said for any reason I am just glad devs are actively banning people in the harassment category now I am actually re downloading the game right now because of it.

    Getting over it or not is neither here nor there. Saying it in the first place is never okay and those who enable it are just as bad.

    Listen, this is an M rated game, you're sayin' that you get your feelings hurt by some random enraged 12yrs old who lost the game, but you are totally okay with slaughtering people with the doctor (just an ex) while laughing like a maniac? seems legit

    Yea it’s M rated but it’s just a damn game and it may not hurt other people’s feelings but it may piss some off really bad, point is nobody should get their game experience ruined by an ######### who is salty because they lost and you don’t know if the person you are saying this to has mental health issues or not, what if someone actually followed through with suicide because you and your friends decided to dog all over him and tell him to kill himself? Name calling has no place in any game whatsoever, and only a legit maniac would be ok with someone slinging insults after every match.
