Am I the only one who stops struggling if the killer encounters the hook bug?

I don't expect survivors to stop struggling if the killer encounters the hook bug, but I'm wondering if anyone other than me does out of a sense of fair play? I just feel dirty if I wiggle free because of a bug. It sucks when it happens to me as killer, so I refuse to do it as a survivor out of some stupid sense of honor I suppose. Does anyone else do this?

    I haven't encountered it on either end myself, but I'd probably do what sulaiman does.

    I do it out of respect for a killer, as losing a hook to. bug is utter BS.

    Today, as blight, I got d-striked when I wasn't tunneling while a Jake was on a gen, he tried completing the gen in front of me and failed, but his team mate abused the bug and bodyblocked and sabo'd. I made sure they both died with me nodding at them on the hook.

    I yell at my teammates to stop struggling too. It's a bullshit bug that already robs killers of pressure and time I'm not adding to it.

    No, I will wiggle free if I can and then run away. Why should I give killers a "free" hook cause of a bug if they themself abuse bugs like the hill or DS bug?

    Half of the killers have a 2 second stun anyways so you gain no distance if you wiggle free.

    Why do I get the feeling you were one of the people who would abuse the hill bug when you played killer?


    As for op, yes I stop struggling as I'm not toxic. Same way I freed survivors from the hill bug when it existed

    I mentioned that in another thread. I would say a good 40-50% of killers grabbed survivors out of the hill bug and didn't hook them, I have not encountered a survivor that either stopped struggling or stay under the hook after escaping. I wasn't able yet to escape due to the bug, the two or three times I saw it as survivor, they always managed to put me down and attempt again

    Depends on if I like the killer or not.

    It's surprising people aren't calling out survs for abusing the bug and people are saying that killers are "abusing" the DS bug....

    weird.

    Wow... more people right here say they would grant the hook. Why doesn't that reflect reality?

    I just don't wiggle to begin with. I just assume the glitch is gonna happen. The Killer has always hooked me right away, too. They could take me to the basement but don't. 😄

    The whataboutism is great. Yes some players suck. I choose not to be #########, I don't care if others don't have the same priorities.
