How would YOU deal with toxicity?
People could use this to make them feel better about themselves and to teach people that it is not healthy to make someone miserable just for playing a game. We would do this to make that game experience as positive as possible!

I ignore it. People do these things in an attempt to trigger you, best to ignore it.

As a survivor, I just feel sorry for them and don't help them much in-game.
Aa a killer, I hit them once on the hook (or more) and if they are really bad, I fully sacrifice them and let everyone else live.
If I see a full team Claudettes, I activate kill mode :D

Well there are 3 ways I deal with toxicity
A. Invite them to voice chat and ask them how their day was over and over again until they vent or leave :P
B. When they start flaming you tell them about how much fun you had and how everyone played well and just blatantly ignore everything they say it triggers them.
C.Give them props and tell them they must be a god at the game.
The easiest thing to do is just try to confuse these players if you try to interact with them imo it works 99% of the time. Of course most of the time the best advice is to just not even talk to them.

Toxicity is made up unless it's people being offensive in end game chat, honestly ya'll playing a game where you murder people and are getting upset at a flashlight flicking, or a survivor crouch spamming, or a killer hitting you on the hook, it's ridiculous.
Ban people that are rude/offensive in chat, gg toxicity is gone.

+1 banning people who say stuff like "Git Gud" "GG EZ EZ CLAP BABI KILLER" "LMAO" should be banned, they are not good for game health and makes newer players stay away from the game :)

yea, ######### talk like "you're bad" etc is fine imo, people are seriously getting upset about smack talk in end game chat, like telling people they should die etc is too much but telling someone they're trash is fine imo.

After the game is over, I click "Leave". Then I click "Find A Match". If they use a Haddonfield offering and bring multiple instaheals, I put them on my Mori list.

If I’m playing Killer, I’ll nod my head or my character’s body. Depending on the amount of generators done, I’ll hit the survivor on hook. If I’m survivor, I just t bag at the exit gates. Nothing you can do against a toxic killer vs a toxic survivor.

Depends. If mild ("bad at game", crying about crutches, racism), ignore. If serious (cancer, death, etc), I either stay silent (if I lost the match), or remind them what sad losers they are (if I won).
Never ever report. You guys shouldn't either. We need ######### in this game. Anyone remembers that line from the Sin City movie: "I love hitmen. No matter what I do to them, I don't feel bad." Same with the most offensive players. Just gotta destroy them in game, then you can move onto destroying their self esteem.

Report, ignore, move on.

Depends. If it's in-game "toxicity" I don't really care at all. And besides, giving them special treatment is exactly what they want in the first place a lot of the time.
If it's someone going completely nuclear in post-game chat (death threats and the like) I just report and move on.

Ignore it.

I've closed the chat box, made it impossible for random players to leave comments on my Steam profile and I never accept friend/group requests that follow DbD games.
I ain't gonna be talking ######### to anyone and they cannot say anything to me.

I just send them this, "I love you ❤😘" and then they get completely confused on why I would say something nice.

In-game toxicity (tbagging, flashlight clicking, hand animations after stunning me etc) I don't mind most of the time. Actually I kinda like flashlight clickers since I reaaally really hate searching for (immersed) players.
Post-game toxicity (salty messages) is annoying at times but I still allow people to contact me because every now and then there's a good sport who messages me something wholesome.

And noding yeah. Maybe we all take it too seriously. It is better to ignore it.

Laugh. While I know there are toxic people in the community, I honestly couldnt care at this point, since alot of my own gameplay revolves around things that are annoying to deal with, such as camping with insidious letherface. So naturally, most of my entertainment from that comes from those who intend to bully others. Honestly, there's nothing else like being reported then sedning them a picture of all the non reportable offences. So there's no real reason for me to want toxicity gone.

I dwell in it. I make fun of sore losers making up excuses and blaming me or their teammates. Their insults amuse me. If they get to escape, I write "gg wp", "can't win them all", "Well done", etc. and move on.
