I hate this ######### community.
I am done. I dont care for anyones fun anymore. Again i played completely nice, without tunneling or camping or whatever, not even in the endgame and i still get trashtalked and tbags at the exit gate.
Why should i care for your fun anymore if no one cares for mine ? Its not worth it playing nice for one person put of 40.

Treat people how you would like to be treated. If you’re okay with playing like that then make sure you’re okay with the opposite happening to you

Because you are the better person and instead of them you can behave and take it easy. As hard as it might sound right now (i assume you had a few rough games recently), just ignore them and leave with a smile. You played fair and that is all what counts.

Every killer player gets to that stage at some point,myself included lol
I only really play nice when i see that the other side is REALLY struggling.
Other than that i'm just playing as efficient as possible (Doesn't mean that i would go out of my way to ruin someones game though).

It sounds like you didn't have fun playing the game, because the only thing you remember is what happened at the end of the game.

This community is better than people give it credit for. There’s a lot of wholesome people.

Exactly. Been there, said ######### that, went there again, not long after said ######### that again. NO MORE

And than you are a dick to some players who just play nice. Yay.

This community also raised a lot of money to help one of our own streamers diagnosed with ALS.
No amount of teabagging or, flaslight clicking can really do anything to affect your game as Killer unless you let it get to you.
Also endgame chat can be turned off and, you can block toxic people who try to message you.
It's the internet bro, nothing new.

Why play nice at all? Kill everyone as efficiently as possible, making things easier on them only makes things tougher for you. Chances are they won't notice anyway and it'll only boost their ego

Why do you care about what they say or think at all?
As toxic as the community can be and as pretentious as the mods seem to me, this game is simply not a social complex; there is no in-game chat through the game client and there are no beneficial social expectations set by the game's storefront description "Work together...or not"...this game is casually competitive, is it not?
This game has never been a meaningful social experience, so for what reason would you want to make this something that it is not? This is a horror hall of fame, and people's anxieties affect their decision making both in-game and outside it.
Learn to let it go or even learn to forgive. Life's not worth the stress that people dish out, so why add more to your own plate?

Yea, i just had to let it out again. Its just soooo annoying to never get a thank or atleast no tbags at the end for no reason.
I played nice, why cant they too?
2 -
I totally understand you.And i've had that many times aswell.Barely got a "thanks gg" or something.Just complainst and BM,which is why i decided to just play efficient.
That does not mean that i would 4 man slug at 5 gens or just facecamp and tunnel 1 survivor every game.
I just end the game if i can and usually don't try to make it longer.I definetely give someone the hatch sometimes though.
Some people just desperately try to get a reaction out of you,so just laugh about it and move on.Don't let them win

I dont seek for validation and what does DC penalty have to do with that? I dont DC. But yea, they should come back asap.

Why are you going to the exit gate?
If the t-bagging bothers you that much stop going there.

Hey Ruma. I get your frustration. I honestly do, I was in the same situation. But, let me show you something if you're willing to look.
I was playing Ghost Face on Oni's map. You know, the tower? 4 gens got done and everyone kept charging to the gen on top of the tower and we just played King of the Hill.
I kept downing and hooking everyone around the tower. But, this Dwight ran up to the gen and I slugged him.
I went into stealth and crouched behind a wall, I was planning on abusing their runner when they go to pick up the Dwight that's next to me.. As I sat and wait, I get this message.
I'm so used to hate. So I replied and I was sent this..
At ended up getting a 3k and I learned that this person I'm talking to was Dwight. The person I slugged while I was trying to ambush.
We talked for a bit longer after the match and it was such a joy.
These small things is why I don't give up on the community. There are toxic people around every bend, but sometimes... while you're digging through trash, you'll pull a diamond and it'll be such a memorable and heartwarming experience.
I try to be that diamond for everyone who's just trying to play the game fairly and nice.
Ruma, I hope you find your diamond soon.
No one deserves to be berated

I just wish things like this were more common. Luckily you had a moment like this, and hopefully it will get more.

I know it seems bleak, but I promise you that you'll experience it

I get this a lot, and my personal favorite is getting tbagged out the gate and 'lol ez' when I go out of my way to spare the person in question, but... I also get people that are happy about it. I've had several killers thank me for stopping and giving them the hit when they're clearly rubberbanding and they get robbed out of several hits in a row, and I've had survivors thank me for letting them all go and playing chill to maximize bloodpoints. Sometimes I don't get endgame chat because console or them leaving before the match is concluded for me, but when I check TTV streams, they're happy with how I'm playing in their voiceover.
It's worth it to me as long as it matters sometimes.

I remember getting someone to step on bear trap at an exit gate and they messaged me "I hope your mother dies of cancer."
Now they're a Nurse helping people recover from cancer. So, the irony is there.
But, about the Twitch steamers, everyone single one I met was super nice, except for one. She said I was a toxic #########. So. Yeah. Funny how life works..
I'm subbed to one of the streamers I went against, they're a super chill and super positive person. Love watching his streams

maybe I met killers like you! it would be a good challenge, respectful and honest! thank you for being who you are!

I used to get as frustrated as you are right now, but I then realized that at least 50 percent of my opponents are prepubescent hormonal spoiled brats that have never had to struggle for anything in their lives and that it isn't worth getting upset with their crying.
1 -
Just don't take out your frustrations on survivors who haven't done anything.
7 -
I play very nice as survivor, not as much as killer lol. Because you take on the role as a killer, you should act like one. No reason to be nice.
2 -
Welcome to the dark side...pay it forward🤣
0 -
But dont u hate the artists? : (
When I started playing killer, I played nice, double hook and let them all escape. Until facing the first SWF who used old OoO vs my Wraith (which they can see me even cloaked). Hardcore tbag and trask talk, I stopped playing this game for a few days and came back make the game unfun to other solo survivors.
I stopped doing it after a few weeks. I want thing less toxic, but cant doing that while spreading out more toxic.
4 -
Yet, by that, you yourself are ignoring the fact this whole vicious cycle began with a handful of toxic Survivors? The wheel spins infinitely, my friend.
1 -
Case in point. I had some kid on PC messaging me on Xbox after he hopped on his own account to criticise me for being the 'wurse killur' (legitimately that unable to comprehend basic English, too) after I practiced Huntress for the first time in a cross-platform game, when, because I'm on console, the game was consistently freezing and lagging to the point where I could hardly even move. The team I was up against was a SWF group who constantly tea-bagged and body-blocked, yet, even in spite of my lagging and freezing, I hooked two of them twice and landed about seven solid cross-map hatchets out of the blue. Towards the endgame I just let them go, literally dancing around the map and standing there while they popped gens. Pretty obvious I was doing it, too.
But I'm apparently the 'wurse killur' for trying out a new one that I didn't end up liking, despite being friendly and beyond to their little communications team...

Who cares about the survivors feelings. Tunnel them hard and let them cry about it on the death hook.
1 -
I used to give the last survivor hatch every time until I would sometimes get up to get a drink/bathroom, only to come back 5 minutes later to them AFK on the hatch or teabagging. This happened incredibly frequently, to the point that it is the sole reason I will slug for the 4k, every single time.
I don't really camp or tunnel unless it's necessary, but after seeing the things I've seen in-game for 4 years and seeing the whiny things streamers say and do? I could care less about what other people think about how I play, what perks I use, what killer I use, or anything. I just stopped caring, and when you stop caring if you win or lose, and you stop caring about what other people think, or some imaginary "respect" or "rules" that you should feel good following, that only ever benefit the other side, you'll enjoy the game more.
That one thing I do doesn't dictate everything else, or how I play, or if I care if everyone even escapes. It's just the direct result of morons being morons, and I'm sure my actions cascade the same as theirs. This community isn't worth not being toxic towards when it is so toxic in every way itself. The developers certainly could care less it's one of the most toxic gaming communities around; they don't even have a functional report system, just a band-aid, useless word censor.
1 -
I get what you are saying, but why let this bother you?
If you can't be bothered to ignore end game chat - then that's your choice.
If you let a simple lame action bother you - that's your choice.
Seriously. not being a jerk, but ask yourself why you even bother reading chat, and why you let words and actions of complete strangers bother you.
I am not condoning the behavior in the slightest, but it's just random morons on the internet. Do they matter to you? Why do you value their opinion? Move on and tell yourself that they are idiots with no life and that their opinion or actions have no affect on you. Stop letting others live rent free in your head.

There are no rules, play however you want and remember other peoples problems aren't your problem.
1 -
How old are you? 4?
"Mooom, he started it!"... Doesnt matter who started it. Being a dick because someone was a dick to yourself is not the correct way. In the end, you are bad to someone who was not bad to you in the slightest, for no apparent reason.

I would never recommend playing fair for the benefit of others exclusively. I avoid camping, tunneling, and slugging not for their fun, but for my own. I do not want to rank up anymore than I already have and (face) camping or slugging is boring. Proxy camping is more fun than you would think because they come at you like moths to a flame.Tunneling is honestly the one I struggle with the most, sometimes it would just be so easy, and it really doesn't influence my fun negatively, but it is also the thing that bothers me the most as a survivor. So I try not to. Plus BBQ stacks, baby!
1 -
Play how you wish, but try not to become the very problem you had, because then you're playing in a way you've been made to do and not the way you want to do, and be the reason for another player to feel as you do and change accordingly.
If anything, judge each round individually, and don't allow one experience to flow into the other. There will be a lot of dicks, but there are also a lot of decent people. But the worst thing you can do to ruin your fun is let the idiots dictate how you play in every match, rather than see each round as it normally is: 4 new strangers who you have no idea how they are.

I would agreen if i would finally go against someone who isnt a dick towards me. But i keep getting toxic killers or survivors anyway.
1 -
Yeah after returning to dbd after a break of a few years, I really am amazed at how toxic people are. And how some people are willing to make a game incredibly unfun.
The last game that I played as survivor was against a nurse who was 8 ranks higher than any of the survivors (because apparently on 25 people play this game) and she felt the need to hook and then hard face camp. Slowly nodding her head over and over again to the hooked survivor.
What type of ######### would honestly find that rewarding?
1 -
yup yup...keep getting people like this. Why can't you guys just say GG and move along? or better yet don't say anything. Yeah i didnt kill anyone in that round i had a bad game. It does not give you the right to act like this.
3 -
I would probably say that this is more of a chicken and egg thing where no one knows anymore which side started this "war" (Matrix anyone?).

Interestingly on euw in the evenings I don't get much after game talk at all. I play like op and mostly let everyone go after getting 8hooks and mostly max bp.
When I let them all go but got all my hooks aka I was probably better than them and was able to dictate the pace of the trial I get nothing.
But when they own me, for example that one confirmed swf two Saturdays ago in the event stomped me with no hooks and less than 10k bp (with 5 cakes mind you), then I get gg from all the survivor. Only when I might feel completely destroyed and down, then I get something and that only feels like edging the "loss" further in. Luckily I don't really care anymore and play only for the bp.
To the swf from then, they apologized after I told them that it was far from a good game for me, getting rushed, bodyblocked and overall stomped like that.
I know us "fair and fun" killer should not expect gratitude for playing according to the common code of conduct (no camping etc.) but it would sometimes be nice.

I was not saying this is a blame-game; I simply stated that this thing has a beginning and no end, and it is not this person's fault that they were ensnared in this never-ending circle of aggressiveness. If you are somehow offended by -- or vulnerable because of -- that simple statement, then you either misconstrue points for ignorance's sake alone, or you are just that daft and/or dense that you take every comment, however insignificant and unrelated to yourself, to heart. Either way, you're seemingly attached to some idea that I was coming after you. You need to sort things out mate...

Good observation. And I caught the reference like a fishing pole on a rock :)

i will agree with you that this community is garbage
however i will say, don't tunnel or camp unless its for strategic reasons, just like survivor who "gen rush"
everyone should be allowed to try their best to win

Its simply Nonsense to be toxic to some random people who did nothing wrong in the first place. Someone who does this should not complain about getting teabagged for no reason, they are doing the same.
3 -
And from what Ruma (the op) said he didn't play toxic but is still treated that way. Which we have to take at face value since we have no method of proving them wrong.
This whole discussion about repaying aggression/toxic behaviour with the same is just a wheel turning around itself. An endless circle. Self-fullfilling prophecy. Whatever you want to call it.
The only one to blame are the ones that actively act like this to completely innocent players, no matter the side of the community and both are not innocent but also not completely guilty at the same time.
3 -
It really is like that. If i get completly stomped i get a GG or atleast no tbaggs but if i lose because i holded back too much i get trashtalks and tbags.
0 -
I didnt said i will be toxic, i said i dont care for anyones fun anymore. This means i dont care if i have to camp tunnel slug or whatever. Thats not toxic.
2 -
I don't give a damn, I always play for my own enjoyment
Tunneling and making survivors purple is so fun
0 -
But who says that this person does that?

As a killer you shouldn't have to worry about anyone's "fun" but your own. In any other game like for example apex legends, you think your enemy will stop shooting at you because you're not having "fun"?. It's a pvp ranked game any playstyle that helps your chances of winning should be used.
