What does toxic mean anymore?!?!

Its the most missused word in the dead by daylight community. I am honestly so tired of having people call me toxic for bringing an item or a perk, or if I managed to loop them for a while. It makes no sense to me. I get how Tbaging, flashlight clicking and abusive endgame chat is toxic. BUT HOW IS USING AN ITEM OR PERK THE WAY ITS INTENDED TOXIC? I could (kinda)understand if you just call me or someone like me a jerk for using them. But not toxic. The only time I ever BM is if the killer(or survivors) ACTUALLY give me a reason too do so(ik that doesn't make it right I acknowledge that, but I'm talking about the times I don't ACTUALLY BM the killer or survivors in any way.) I just don't get it guys... This community honestly has so many 4Heads that it sometimes makes me question my own veiws on the game. Maybe I'm the 4Head?(nah)


TLDR: What is "toxic" in dead by daylight?

    Toxic is really only able to be relegated to post game chat.

    Any shenanigans in-game is BM, but BM isn't toxicity, as long as it is done within the rules of the game.

    Taking the game hostage is obviously toxic
