Targeting LGBTQ

In game tonight - the most recent being the last game I played just before I posted this - were filled with wraiths - each with a different name/different steam id/all blocked after the game - who targeted characters wearing the pride flag, making note in the chat that gays had to die and that they "had" to - in the case of the last game, slugged everyone and let them bleed out while standing over them hitting the wailing bell until they died. The end game chat reflected their reasoning - the pride flag - and claimed that a slow death was to teach a lesson.

So - DBD - what next?

    They can slug you and leave you bleed out. They can camp you and hit you on hook. They can tunnel you. I am not saying those things are okey but all of them allowed. But they can not target you at end game chat. They can not insult your race, religion, gender etc. Death wishes did not allowed. So i hope this is clear.

    Somehow i find most of your story hard to believe. Had killers been so ridiculous to do something like this (and say something so ludicrous), anyone who sees this (and has a problem with it) would have taken a screenshot. Literally hit f12 (or if you're on console simply taken a pic w/ your phone or something). Unless you've got a SS, I'm calling part bullsh1t.

    You report it and hope behavior handles it. If some homophobic people want to be toxic just ignore them like any other toxic individual.

    It's funny watching people get made over the fact that someone is gay

    I find it weird how you haven't once said if you've reported it or not.

    What's even your point? Should we take all Black, Asian, Hispanic characters out of the game because they could be targeted?

    Once again your rhetoric is hard to believe. You can easily blur out their names in your supposed "screenshots". Feel free to blur or black them out and post them here so people actually believe you. Otherwise you're full of sh!t. We'll go ahead and wait for those magical screenshots.

    The in-game report system doesn't do anything. Client only saves end-game chat. It doesn't save individual matches to replay. Which is why hackers can go rampant for months w/o a ban unless someone is streaming/recording a certain match with them. Thats why also in part, most people don't report. Because they know it does nothing. The report system is a joke.

    Report. Move on.

    Usually in games there got to be a certain amount of reports on a particular person so their case is reviewed and they get a suspension. Otherwise it is just impossible to handle reports. I mean, every other game people report others for clicking beamer or getting tunneled as if it is a bannable offence.

    Nice! All you can do really. Video proof is the best. But I've also reported people with video/SS proof and seen these people 1 week later, so I don't have any faith in the system or if the right people do get punished.

    Sorry you went through that, though.

    Rhetoric: Language designed to have a persuasive or impressive effect on its audience, but often regarded as lacking in sincerity or meaningful content.

    You're attempting to persuade people in this thread (which you're doing a very poor job of doing so and most people don't believe you). As for your "screenshot"... you've already stated you posted it with peoples' names included... essentially doxing them (which is why it was "previously deleted"...). I am simply asking you to post the screenshot with their names blurred out so that they are not doxed and does not get deleted. But you can't even do this. Hence... you're full of it.

    Well sure the story doesn't end it will never end. We will never get tied of people like that and it doesn't matter wich reason they choose this time it lgbtq next time it's racism. The only thing we can do is screen shot the chats where they admit there sins and report them then bhvr need
