Cheating/hacking is probably the most toxic thing.

As killer, facecamp first down and slug any over anxious heroes until that first hook is dead and gone
Yes not much time has passed since I posted this and I already see good options for the other option such as, survivor sides with killer sandbags teammates, tracks them with bond, uses them as bait for their own survival.

As survivor, DC on first down
know i already voted for dcing on first down, basically dooming the match for the others survivors and not giving a good match for the killer, but post-game chat insults are pretty much the same level (or in other, the whole swf team dcing after one of them dcs, making basically the match end instantly with everyone unpiping, unhappy, losing items and add-ons and offerings thrown away for nothing)
i even encountered survivors that dc on first down, then wait the whole match to insult everyone in the post-game chat

The DC has really gotten out of hand. Over the course of the year I've seen it get worse and worse, yellow and green ranks are the absolute worst. Lobby dodging is mainly a red rank problem in my opinion but I feel comfortable saying that these game stalling actions are not as toxic as thought out actions that just want to ruin the game for others. While the DC does do harm at least I'm not gen rushing a killer standing still at the hook again unless of course the toxicity over exceeds itself and you experience one of these toxic actions because of another of these toxic actions.
Sometimes I question, where does it end?

Exploiting a bad bug as much as you can for an advantage is pretty damn scummy.

You know, I feel like there's no real scale of toxicity, all of the toxic actions you can do have the same consequence : frustrating everyone else
so it can be pretty much everything it can even go to bad matchmaking and memeing as some people dont like having fun in the game and dont like to face someone who's having fun
tho i would say there's a difference between making a mistake and being toxic, as most new survivors for example will farm unhooks unvoluntarily because, well, they dont know the timing, it's not being toxic or something.
So toxicity would be doing something voluntarily to ruin the other side's enjoyment of the game
like facecamping, being annoying to the others, insulting other people, dcing on down, using the most broken combinations to get a 90% of 4Ks (like Spirit Prayer beads Noed facecamping Ebony Mori), tea-bagging in a not funny way etc
there's so much ways you can ruin the game for someone it's quite impressive actually, and most (even insulting in post-game chat let's be honest) wont lead to a ban, so it also asks another question, what could be done to prevent that sort of behaviour ?

This pretty much.

As survivor, teabag at the exit gates if the killer did really poorly in the match and is clearly ready to move on
I am very confused that there are people who imitate Ochido or the old Noob3, or some fog wisperers.

As far as things that are legal in the game, mori channel spam / slugging until bleed out when game is already over.
Anything against the rules is more toxic though. Especially hacking.

As survivor, spam quick actions until the killer comes
You physically can't ignore it. The loud noise notifications are so loud you are basically a deaf killer. Only way to counter it is turning sound off, but then you are, well, a deaf killer too.
There really should be a cooldown on it, or someway to mitgrate the sound volume of them.

This would be the biggest toxic move you can do (without hacking, and my opinion). It denies the killer points (or perks if you’re the obsession), and screws over your teammates.
If I see a dc in a game, I’ll be willing to go easy or farm with the remaining survivors, as a big middle finger to the one that left. I can’t stand it when they do that.

I always TEABAG at the exit gates and do "The butt dance" to provoke the killer. Even on pallets being put down.
Another toxic move is to put the pallet down, crouch and do a "nod" of yes to killers. its FUNNY.

Other than exploiting it cheating it has to be this.
If a killer obviously wants you to leave and be done with the match but you continuously teabag at the exit gates and vault over pallets and flashlight spam, you’re just being an immature child and a poor sportsman.
I don’t even feed into it when playing killer. I break pallets and walk around the map while they act stupid on the other side.
It doesn’t affect me personally because somebody spamming a button shouldn’t personally affect you, but it’s the survivors own way of saying “screw you”.

Trashtalking in Endgame Chat, especially after a pretty fair Match.

I feel that ivory mori tunneling one specific survivor that was you giving you the hardest time to be toxic.

Teabagging is annoying. Shaking your head after tunneling someone into the ground is annoying. Pointing is annoying. Mori spam is annoying. But one thing these all have in common is that they’re all visual, and though annoying, they are not an aesthetically unpleasant stimuli.
The sound of a flashlight being clicked, however, creates what is in my opinion the most infuriating sound in the entire game. It physically makes my head hurt. It’s an ugly, unpleasant, uncomfortable noise being broadcasted because it’s such an audible irritant. I hate the sound of flashlight clicking so much that it will almost always cause me to DC. I could be farming, or on the road to a 5 gen 4k, or playing Survivor and seeing a teammate be toxic—no matter the scenario, I immediately want to leave the second that atrocious sound touches my ears.
So I would say flashlight clicking is the most toxic thing you can do.

The only thing that I'd argue is toxic is hurling insults in the end game chat. It is easy to deflect players being "toxic" in the actual game because you can counter what they are doing, (depending on your team/build), but otherwise it's better just to close the chat and move on to the next salt-fest.
Not like there's ever a shortage of them.
