The amount of toxicity and I fear for new players that join the community
Alright so, I have played this game for years and I know there are going to be a lot of people that are going to say things like ignore them, grow up, its just a game and etc. This situation has been a problem for a long while and it seems to only get worse. So I stopped playing dead by daylight because of the amount of toxic and rude players that told me to go kill myself. No one deserves to be told that at all or anything along those lines period. I used to love this game and it was soooo fun especially when I went up against players that gave constructive advice on how to play killers. Now you don't get much advice like that its always rude comments. The community has fallen into an event deeper hole and it seems like no one is doing anything to fight against it. I just uninstalled the game again 10 mins ago from this post due to the fact of how toxic these group of survivors are and what they said to me. I would suggest that perhaps removing the in game chat period and having like responses such as good game, better luck next time or something among those lines or perhaps making punishments along harsher especially with rude players that damage the community. I am probably going to get a lot of ######### from people on this topic since its been brought up a lot I bet but I believe toxicity is a big problem in this game. I hope sooner or later people like that are removed from the game. Hope all the other people that play this game keep going strong and enjoy the game and I hope that the players you come across give you creative advice on how to be a better killer or ask you for advice on how to do better!!! Enjoy fellow DBD gamers!

You're not wrong. I've reported people for the exact thing you mentioned above, and for aggressive name-calling/disparaging in post game chat. I've been fortunate to have not been the target of that kind of abuse myself, but I always stick up for whoever is being targeted. I don't put up with that kind of behavior toward anyone.
If I see someone tunnel or camp and I get frustrated myself and feel the need to express that in post game chat, I've learned to just type a sad face and express how I'm a little sad and it's just no fun to play in a match like that. That usually drops the toxicity out of my opponents and I tend to see them say 'Oh... My bad. Sorry :('
But yeah, some people here have suggested a sort of positivity reward that players could give to other people on a limited basis. Maybe BHVR could make it possible to give everyone a rating only after exiting post game chat. And if you get positive ratings, you get bonus BP?

I agree with that suggestion smurf, something like your idea would greatly benefit the community. Now the whole sad face I wish it worked for me, sadly they keep on going is what I notice. I still hope that soon when newer players in Dbd come, they don't experience what we current players experience. I hope they get to enjoy a fun non-toxic game for once and not have to deal with the mean comments or bullying that we do.
