If you are going to message someone after a game wait for a response
30 seconds into a match I'm working on a generator. Network connection drops. Hadn't encountered another survivor or the killer. Power cycle my router/modem and try again.
While I'm waiting on my next match I get a message from the killer of the one in which I was dropped. They tell me they reported me and 'explained' to me that DCing is against the rules and why. The amount of condescension they managed to put into a few sentences was truly impressive.
I never intentionally DC. Even if I was someone that DC'd I would have had zero reason to DC that match. We had just started. I hadn't been hit, hung, or even seen. The killer was on the other side of the map chasing someone else.
Upon attempting to reply I find they blocked me before I had a chance to respond. HA!
As for being reported.... I could care less. It won't affect me.
However, if you are going to take the time to send people messages that are so arrogantly self-righteous that there is a narcissistic level of pretension at least be brave enough to wait for a response. If you aren't going to wait for a response just know everyone you message will see you for exactly what you really are....
***Update****
This person unblocked me long enough to send me another pompous message telling me I would be contacted by DBD soon so I should be prepared to get banned.
Once again when I tried to respond they had blocked me. At this point I have to wonder if this person is just trolling. One way or the other I have blocked them now. I'm all for someone that wants to come at me and they're brave enough to allow me to respond. If not.....

It affected you enough to make a thread about it.

Did I claim it didn't? I said I don't care about the being reported. I never attempted to say it didn't bother me that this person acted like an arrogant jerk and then blocked me before I could respond. I expect someone that is brave enough to send me snarky messages to be brave enough to wait for a response. Yes. It bothers me because I don't like cowards that can dish it out but can't take it. I think there is are far too many people that want to be able to shout at everyone else, but prefer to wrap themselves up in a cocoon rather than hear what anyone else says.

Just block them back.

how people are.

That's how it goes. The ultimate pussy move of talking crap and then leaving before the person can respond, this goes for all online games.

I agree. It's a particular pet peeve of mine too. I seriously think our culture is becoming people living in their own echo chambers. It' so counterproductive.

I did after they unblocked me to send a second message and then immediately blocked me again.

There's nothing more you can do and making a post on the forums probably won't change anyone's mind. You're not wrong at all, but your attempt to change how people act is just like yelling into the void. Sorry bud.

I won't be holding my breath it will. Just a bit of a vent.

Well I'm glad you have a place to vent, then.

I don't get why they should've cared if you Disconnected honestly, everytime someone disconnects I just laugh knowing I'm going to get a quiting bonus for the ones that Disconnected.
I've only ever messaged one person with a message and it was a tunneler and a camper. At first we got into an argument cause he thought he was so good, and then I explained to him I wasn't mad he camped, I was mad because doing those things only shows that you don't care about survivors or your own bloodpoints. Which once I explained that they actually agreed and apologized, and I apologized if I came off aggressive in anyway.

People that message and then block, or message and leave the chat, can't take being talked back to.
They think they can dish it, and they certainly can't take it.
Just keep you chin up bud, they hate that :)
These kind of people always get theirs sooner or later.
