Why do I bother trying?
Going to just get to the point. After saying gg to a survivor get called toxic for covering back three gens on sheltered woods and having two of three survivors on hooks near the gens by the end get told by them they hope I get coronavirus. I wished them safety and acted like the bigger person. Love the concept of the game but it seems I'm not allowed to win or at least try. I have put a lot of money in to a community that can't lose with class. So I ask why do I bother? I guess because in the end I know that if there no killers there is no game. Your welcome survivors and devs just know you allow it to happen because you don't address the crazier part of the entitlement some think they are owed. Would love to hear from someone on the team but almost sure this post won't be up long cause someone will take it as a attack. To be honest and clear it is not just the thoughts of a nobody in a large community

I just throw them a thumbs up when they're jerks to me in a message and then stop responding after that. Usually they don't talk again but I have zero issues just blocking someone if they just bombard me with jerk messages (and report them to Xbox Live if it crosses that line).
Jerks are gonna jerk so why bother letting jerks get under your skin?

I’ve had to block messages on ps4. Then they send Friend requests with hate so now I turn off friend requests, then they group spam me invites to their party chat, so gotta turn off party chat.
Im waiting till they start texting my phone before I have to hide my profile because they’ve taken clues and spent 15 mins figuring out who I am, where I live and personal info, just to tell me I’m a ######### killer who needs to hit gud.
Seriously holy fk.

That's why you just don't stick around for endgame chat. I play the game to enjoy the game. Not to deal with morons. Once it's over, I have no reason to stay because if you even stay to say GG, you get something like that a lot.
And no, don't bring up the devs here. The only fault lies with the person who's being entitled. The devs have no control over that.

It reeeeaaally annoys me that people do this. I play more survivor than killer but still had to turn off messages because of horrendous threats and wishes for harm. But its more annoying when survivors do this to the killers, because then ALL survivors get labelled as entitled, aggressive crybabies, and there is enough of that as i is.
I highly recommend turning off messages from people who aren't your friends. Or just ignore chat if you are on pc. You can still send a GG message, but if they want to be salty at you, they will be s**t out of luck.

Just ignore what these braindead people have to say. If they wish you the coronavirus because of a game they lost against you, they have serious mental issues. If you enjoy the game, play it, don't care about people like that. They are just a vocal minority. But no one should stop bothering to try and enjoy the game because of people like that.

There's no helping this community that's for sure.
I got called a loser by a SWF earlier after messaging them GGs. They didn't like the fact I had to camp and slug to get hooks with Pig. I ended up getting a 2k
Three of them did last second flashlight switch and sent me to Coldwind with mist offerings.. You expect me to play fair when you do last second switch like that?

Because you're a nice person.

True.
I just gave you the benefit of the doubt is all. 😊

I respond with random replies that make no sense when people send nasty messages. They usually shut up pretty quickly. Examples of replies:
Jingle Bells
Rasputin loved chocolate ice cream
Cucumbers are green
Ringo was a Starr
Foosball is the debil

I don’t get the point of this post? What are you trying to say? 😂 I don’t think you can point fingers at accusing either side of feeling entitled to anything more than the other side.

DbD just has a toxic player base. It has always been that way.

I am sorry to hear that you are feeling so bogged down by the toxicity and the high number of players that are poor sports. I hope that you are able to know that for every hateful Survivor you run against there are probably quite a few more who do not send messages or who genuinely throw you a mental prop when you've played a good game. Sending you positive vibes! 🤗
As a Survivor main I have had to turn off messages on my PS4 and friend invites as well. I have never sent a hateful message to someone (I rarely send messages, period). I have never DC'd. I have never tea bagged - in fact when other people tea bag I gesture 'come here' to try to just rush them out the door before the Killer can see. Yet I have gotten everything from entry level 'you suck' messages to 'f*ck you survivor c*nt I hope you f*cking die."
Both sides have some terrible people. But... Both sides have super great people as well. Hang in there and try to enjoy the game you love! <3

You think it ok to wish bad things on to others.I don't think I should win any match when the other side has to make up unwritten rules to justify being rude and why they lost.

I just say back "lol." It's very dismissive and doesn't give them what they want, which is to upset you or make you defend yourself

When browsing this forum I always wonder how I don’t get to experience those hateful survivors that often (I do see them just not that often) but run into so many killers that behave like this or worse..

I still don’t get it. Nobody’s wishing bad things on anyone except salty losers usually lol sorry you had to deal with them telling you to get Coronavirus. That’s really mean for sure. My first response Was me just saying I don’t think either side should feel entitled because some killers almost seem to be getting 4Ks like it’s normal 😂 idk where these survivors are that say these bad things. But I don’t think I’ve come across any. Usually when I play killer I get the occasional message saying “gg” or something. I don’t camp hooks or anything. But if you pull a fast one on me and go for the unhook as soon as I hook someone I don’t know why I wouldn’t come back and put that person back on the hook 😂 but that never angered anyone. You can blame your teammate for that. If they DS me I usually just let them go. I respect that perk. It’s only a one time use when I feel like it should be every time you get off the hook. And I know how it feels to just wanna play the game and not be on a hook the whole time. That ain’t fun.

These unwritten rules are things that probably should be more so coded into the game via reworking or adding perks or add ons/hooked survivor proximity debuffs maybe for some of the things that survivors Tell killers they can and can’t do. The game does reward you better for constantly engaging other survivors. That’s how I like to do it because at the end of the match if you guys all make it out, then so be it. I’m not mad. If I kill 0,1,2,3,4 I’m happy either way. As long as I scared the hell out of someone and got points in all categories. Just have fun man don’t be salty and do bad mannered stuff. You know the rules so abide by them lol
