Killer Players are Kinder Than Survivor Players

    As you said yourself, it's not all players in that role that are that way, and I tend not to generalize, but I still agree with your overall experiences. Mine have been like that too. Survivors are usually pretty ruthless, even to their own team mates, and even sometimes more so than the killer.

    I have few enough experiences with killers that were legitimately toxic, even though it has happened plenty, and would do things like just bleed me out on the floor for no reason or mori animation spam endlessly (back when that was a thing.) For survivors though, it's been too many times to count where I'm just sitting there waiting for the game to end and some survivor is just sitting at the exit gate butt dancing because... Well, IDK if they think it's because they're trying to get me mad, or because they think butt dancing is hilarious, or because they just love pressing the button on their keyboard... I'll never understand it.

    when the ratio to survivor and killer players is 4:1, you can't honestly believe this forum is dominated by killer mains?

    Its not just one persons opinion, throw up a random poll i bet money survivors come back as being the most toxic. I can count on 1 hand the amount if salty messsages ive got from killers. Ive gotten literally hundreds from survivors. It gets so bad I literally have to turn messaging off. This is not a unique experience, anyone that plays both sides will tell you tge same. Claiming otherwise is silly

    There is no end to the self fellating killer posts on these forums. I've had good and bad experiences on both sides.

    I don't disagree with the overall sentiment that Survivors are disproportionally more toxic than Killers but if you get lynched early as a survivor you're more than likely to just leave and begin searching for a new match so you'll never see if they type anything while a Killer HAS to see the end chat. Additionally you don't see the Killer's POV so if the Ghostface is teabagging and hook stabbing while you're on a gen you might not see it either. There's just more opportunity for a Killer to witness toxic behaviour than a typical Survivor.
