Upon winning or losing a match, how often if ever do you send hatemail?
Title says off. I'm just curious. It's anonymous to vote so don't worry! This also applied to post game chat as well on PC
Edit: spelled rarely wrong.

Just no, it's really childish to send hatemail even if it's a iridescent head, infantry belt and ebony Mori huntress

I never have and never will. It's a video game people, cool it and move on don't make yourself look like a idiot.

Unless someone sends me some, and I'm in a bad mood, I never do it.

If I ever send a message I ask why did the person choose to act in the way they did.

######### is this poll lol? The people who do actually do it probably won't admit to it, and the people who don't do it are probably going to say they do just for laughs to skew the poll

That's why it's anonymous.
I'm expecting some to lie but it's still just for an idea.

I only do that if the killer is doing something like, tunneling, farming, or facecamping when unnecessary. And im not one of those entitled survivor mains, so i know when this is actually happening, and not just the killer doing their job.

Why send hatemail when you can send positive messages and maybe make a new friend?
3 -
It's just extremely childish, even if the opponent at the end is like "gg ez :)" he's only trying to bait you into that and they'll just look like a ######### themselves unless you respond to that. It's not the opponent's fault that you might have gotten unlucky with rng or matchmaking or other way around. Just leave and hopefully better luck next game or take a break and play when you are in a better mood.

I send memes and nothing but memes. I often get funny responses and everyone gets a chuckle.

That's what I do. No matter how my round goes, I always send GG. Honestly it comes down to luck most games, not skill.

I don't say anything, ever. Not even a "gg". I just leave immediately.

On PS4 there is no end game chat. I changed my privacy settings to only allow messages from friends, but the toxic players still went through the trouble of sending a friend request since you can attach a message to those. I disabled friend requests as well, and even still I had a player send me a Playstation Community invite after I caught them out with an endgame killer build. Before I disabled messages, I would never respond unless they had a genuine question (How did you see me through the wall? You were using Self-Care and I was using Nurse's Calling). It's just crazy to see the lengths people will go through to send hate messages.

I never send it, never will, but I do like getting it 😌 Some people just wanna complain because they were sacrificed.
Had a really bad game as Myers one time. This Laurie bagged me from behind a pallet. The gates get open, everyone leaves except her, the only one I sacrificed. Sends me afterwards, "Why didn't you let me go, you lost that game?!?"... "Don't bag next time" If there's ever a time I've felt fully content in this game it would be then. No response after that either... sweet toxicity.

I don’t send hatemail. I rarely message anybody. I have to be REALLY upset to message somebody, which I never have been that upset in DBD. Even then I’ll only message them asking why they made the choices they did to understand the game from their point of view. It’s usually me that gets the hatemail, so then I send a reaction pic or meme in return to annoying them further.
I send positive messages if I noticed the killer/survivor was really good or if the round was really enjoyable.

I dont't like to send "hate" messages, nor do I more than one a bluemoon. But as a killer player (I don't tunnel, camp, farm or anything toxic I just wanna play the game in a way that everyone can enjoy themselves and understand they lost because of X reason and everyone can take away something from the game) but when survive with friends god loop, gen rush, toolbox rush or use toxic perks and THEN t-bag at the exit gates, or on some case deliberately come back to mess with me I do send a message to ask why. I get people can have bad games, but if i can help someone vent i guess thats helping in one way or another, and it helps me feel better even if i get a 4 escape game. It's not the toxic gameplay, but how people act about using that gameplay. I get that you gotta do what you gotta do to get bloodpoints, but is the toxicity really neccesary?

Same

Never, mainly because the survivors were probably looking for that to begin with, so it isn't worth it.
0 -
I send only in case that the killer is face camping+tunneling and if I do it I just say peaceful to don't do it again because it's not good
0 -
All the toxic survivors voting on "Never" lol. As if anybody would admit that
0 -
If I ever get pitted against someone that plays in such a toxic/unfun/et cetera way that I actually get pissed at them the player, I usually just say gg and then stew about it for a few minutes. They can play how they want as long as they're not cheating or abusing game mechanics, even if it makes me want to kill them IRL in the style of their favorite Killer's mori.

I think leaving hatemail is generally childish and it's a waste of time. The time you could be queuing into another game is wasted by you feeling the need to insult other players in chat. I understand feeling frustrated if someone's being toxic or unfair or generally rude to you, but it just makes a person stoop to their level when they do it back, y'know? People who always have some witty or rude comment to say at the end of a game bug me too. Just move on to your next game, it's not worth saying anything no matter what side you play.

People who send hate tend to be people I want nothing to do with.
So I just screenshot them and frame them in my Hall of Shame. :D

I play on pc so it’s post game chat and I never say anything unless it’s a hardcore tunnel or camp with 3+ bloody party streamers or if I get bullied when I put a survivor pudding and even then it’s something harmless like “next stop: tunneltown USA” or “I hate this game” but the community is so unbelievably toxic it’s disgusting and it’s 90% of the time survivors, I had to defend the killer when playing solo survivor more often then I see a killer be mean.

I send it as a response to hate mail other wise I just say GGWP

I have a few questions because the answers were a bit vague. Why would I send hate mail after I won? and I assume this means in post-chat not like stalking streamers or profiles but I guess it could be all of the above. I said sometimes, but it would be restricted post-chat, I don't search for people beyond the match, that would be weird. And hate-mail like "Why did you tunnel me to death?" or like "I would have been your Dad but a dog beat me over the fence." I keep my chat match relevant.
I will also say I have been known to get on fellow survivor team mates for being ridiculous to killers who maybe didn't do real well. I will tell them that this is why they get face-camped because some cocky survivor was all GGEZ, baby killer in the previous round.

Depends
For me to do a survivor must get really on my nerves
yesterday I had a match where a survivor saw trapper put a trap in front of him, he didn't deactivated, and I ran into it, the survivor was literally next to me and all he did was hide inside a locker
Wanted to put a -rep and explain what he should do but sometimes whats the point

I once had a dbd player bring their buddies to my stream profile and spam all of my reviews, artwork, and dash--all because I played a killer they didn't like. The next day all my computer accounts got hacked, and to this day, I'm really not sure if it was the same person who hacked me, and I'm kinda too scared to know. Whenever i play killer, I get tons of bs even though I play fair and don't mind losing. It's really demoralizing and makes me want to play killer less.
