I need an honest answer: Why do u tbag?

Just why? It's used to incite a reaction, and people who don't know that is like a 5yo waving around the middle finger, you wanna tell them stop but u can't hit kids so they keep doing it.

I ask ppl after matches y they do it, and of course reactions are dismissive as u would expect when dealing with something as complex as a question: Why do u tbag? I'm met with anger and laughter, both are just as humiliating as the tbagging itself.

I don't camp hooks so idk y ppl do insist on doing it. I don't want some BS answer like an dumb joker quote, or tell me to ignore it, or tell me bc the internet is a place where u can act any way u want and get away with it. I'm so sick of never getting any genuine answers.

    This is an answer I saw on another post and it said that they think that those that t-bag aren't good at any other game and feel better about themselves when they tbag in a game that's basically on EZ mode. I think they simply tbag because they want to get you mad, they WANT you to camp them, they obviously want attention so I personally dont give it to them unless no one else is around

    Yea I know I take it too seriously, but its just oneof those things that gets to me, and most of the time its at the end of a match.

    Even had a good game just now, sacrificed 3 and the last 1 escapes only bc of the hatch and feels I'm trash bc I got everyone else but him. I mean, the thinking of some ppl is just horrendous.

    It is more funny when you don't pay attention to it and the tbag gets them sent to my basement ;)

    I did it all the time because i didn’t know it was t-bagging to crouch until a couple days ago. I thought it was a way of telling people to crouch, lol

    I mainly t-bag to say hi to my teammates and while waiting at the exit gate when killer hardcamps a hooked survivor.

    Honestly, I have a nasty habit of doing this at the exit gates.

    I guess it's a form of showboating.

    There are a lot of games where the killer plays really scummy (and still loses), which just makes the temptation too high.

    Some may find this shocking but I do not crouch up and down aka “teabag” unless I’m next to another survivor that’s either to tell them hi or thanks

    Make blood warden active by pressing a button. Teabagging at the gate will vanish over night.

    I assume it's to show superiority. "I'm better than you and I know it." Then they step into your trap and dc because they already wasted their DS.

    I don't mind when people do it, I just assume they're children. When I play survivor, if there's no one that needs saving, I just leave.

    I don't tbag as survivor, and as killer if I see survivors at the gate teabagging I turn around and walk away. They are literally children who want attention (and are probably laughing at this post, giggling at their screens).

    I do it if the killer is a straight up jerk if not, i also do it to communicate with my fellow survivors when i'm soloing

    @Cass : it's when you spam Crouch :-)

    On PS4, I do it to say hello & goodbye to the other survivors (there is no chat).

    I do it "to" the killer only when I want to be chased instead of another survivor (as an example if he will die soon but I haven't been catched yet, or if i'm playing SWF), but not during the chase and nether with disrespect or the will to be insulting him.

    I also sometime do it near the exit to say goodbye to the killer - but only once, not spamming it. Most killers don't like it so I am avoiding it now.

    i think on pc people told me to do it to get the united-bonus, because its broken?
    i crouch a lot in the game, but never to insult the killer (although a killer has accused me for that, even if i didnt intent to do so, and i think i was only crouching. (migt be the united-bonus again).

    Ok history lesson in fighting games there was huge conflict over smack talking each other. Some saw as a sign of disrespect others say it was a strategy to tilt the opponent into playing badly. Muhammad ali popularized the tactic in boxing often inciting his opponents to act aggressively so they were easier to predict. Honestly its a ######### strat that kinda spits in the face of good sportsmanship. But some people don't care whatever it takes to win they'll do it. My advice pay them no heed and remember as killer to hunt the weak first the strong later. Dont let a teabagger piss you off get your hit at the exit gate and let em move along don't feed em by giving em a reaction just gg and move on you will be a better killer for it and a stronger one ^ ^.

    because the killer camps and tunnels me the entire game and i still escape and he gets no kills because of it

    Because the ctrl key occassionally gets stuck when crouching and I have to mash it get the damn thing to let me sprint again.  And also to say hi or thank you to other survs.

    I have very large and heavy survivors balls from running NM and doing stuff like this:

    and this...

    http://xboxclips.com/thesuicidefox/46d027be-a193-4259-9c26-b43c4d8c5744

    So I'm not teabagging as much as I am just resting my legs from the immense weight.

    It's honestly a detriment to my life. Unless a building has a double door I can't come in 😞

    I generally leave the bag in my tea so as to avoid any awkward eye contact with someone as I continually dip my bag in and out. I guess its just a preference.

    I usually teabag to random survivors for saying hi or thanks, often I also did teabag to killers for saying thanks when they actually brought me to hatches or just left me alive for making us points.

    When im on the exit I always let the killer hit me twice so he gets more points, rare cases I teabagged as for being a jerk. Yes when the killer tried to camp me.
