Friendly Killers acceptable?

Just curious. Something I'll encounter once in awhile.

I don't mean letting the last survivor escape. From the start of the match to the end where the killer is neither farming or afk. They're just goofing around not caring about losing and annnoying the entity.

    I don't believe that there's going to be any kind of rules/enforcement on a killer that's just "playing poorly".

    Hell, I do it sometimes when I have a challenge for a killer that I never play and is level 1.

    The only real risk can be that survivors will often still play extremely sweaty and escape as fast as possible and realize too late that they're all depipping for it and then yell at you. 🤣

    It's not ok, but no rules against it.

    As long as you don't do it for every game that you play you will be fine. When I want to play nice, I don't act like I am farming, I just try to two hook each of them then let them go. Unless they try to blind me, then that person is dead.

    Idk, I like the random odd goofy killer? Throws a wrench into the mix of the same ol' same.

    Why would it be against the rules to mess around?

    I do not want to play a serious sweaty match all the time, so I just pop some dumb perks on and run loops with the survivors without breaking the pallet. Often they catch on and we will be having a picnic between the trashcans on Badham Preschool. Or roleplaying as survivor, walking only nurse etc.

    I wouldn't want to play this game if I had to be sUpeR SrS all the time. There are enough "normal" matches anyway and people seem to appreciate these silly ones for a change of pace. I know I do.

    There's nothing wrong with it unless they're forcing someone to farm with them.
