What is your definition of "Toxic"

    Whether you find flashlight clicking, teabagging and other actions like that as annoying, we can say objectively, that those actions ARE performed to do exactly that - annoy and nothing else. And in my opinion, if you do something with a conscious choice to annoy other player(s), then you ARE toxic.

    And it doesn't matter if it annoys you or not. I don't care for the end game chat for example, doesn't matter if it's something silly like calling me stupid or more serious like death threats. I find it all rather silly and I don't care, it won't trigger me. But objectively, it's not really healthy that a person gets so aggressive over a game.

    Teabagging and other actions like that are like a 'language' between players, it's like a middle finger - somehow, in history, it's been defined as offensive and games do stuff like that as well, define their own 'language' or signs. So whether you find it offensive or amusing it doesn't matter - it's purpose is to annoy you and it's being used in 99% of the time only for that. So I think it should be deemed as toxic.

    Like Franklin's? They can get over it. Their problem is with the perk then, not the killer.

    I've sort of been on their end of that before. We decide not to save the random, not because we have an issue with them, but because the gen finishing time is literally more worth it than saving them. They'd have to really mess up to make us feel that way though, like running straight at the killer when we unhooked them without BT and are trying to block for them. Or if they're doing something stupid like cleansing against Plague when nobody else is, killing us all.
