Friendly Survivor Dilema

 Greetings Survivor Mains or Killer mains who know my trouble

I am at a dilemma when I play DBD sometimes i run into friendly Survivors Just survivors who show that they don't fear me (Pointing, walking at me, Spinning in place, not running away) I find these people odd

When I run into one I don't know why I feel bad for killing them. they're kinda cute if you ask me and I try to return the friendly Crouches and Emotes.

Normally i try to remember what survivors are Friendly and not attack them and go for survivors who are doing generators, Running away, and looping me. and when i accidentally hit them i tend to leave them alone and when i down one i pick them up and let them Wiggle out of my grasp

And on some occasions, 1 of the friendlies will let me kill and sacrifice them. which is sweet.

I even run into interactions where i hook a non-friendly and the friendlies Me Play a game of "Unhook or Leave" where essentially me and the friendlies play a game of them nodding and me shaking my head and it ends when them Abandoning the hooked survivor or unhooking them and I just give the recently Escaped non-friendly survivor like 6 seconds to run before chasing them again.

But I have a question: am I an ######### when I don't really take their offer of peace and Hunt them anyway?

like there are some games where i am just frustrated and don't feel like being Merciful (which this game is not about mercy XD). And I just wanna kill!

I normally encounter Friendlies when I play Pyramid head, Pig, or Ghost Face

NOW YES i can differentiate them from Friendly Vs Toxic in their mannerisms and how they approach me they aren't being Cocky their just being Friendly

SO TLDR friendly survivors why do you do what you do?

And do you take offense to being Killed anyway despite your peace offering?

and for the Killer, Mains Watching have you ever encountered this and felt my pain XD

    youre not in the wrong if you kill them, youre only an ass if you say, for example, slug all 4 of them and let them bleed to death etc. However you are a nice person if you take their offer

    It depends. If it's a bug the whole team catches after a while I just continue to meme around, let them do gens and leave.

    If it's just one I consider their shenanigans often an "alternative chase"; I watch them, fool around for a moment, then turn around and continue the match. We can do that several times, as long as they're not sabotaging their team by not contributing to the objective(s). If they don't do anything useful to they gonna get hooked.

    If they get to leave mostly just depends on how the rest of the match goes.

    blood points homie.

    At a certain point., just being in the terror radius will max us out on blood points. sometimes it to get challenges done, sometimes its because im solo q and just want to have some fun, sometimes its because im playing a game while the significant other gets ready and i just need to kill some time

    other times, i do it for the lulz

    Like another poster said, you're fine as long as you're not griefing them. I typically don't take the peace offering. Not interested in farming and those meme games tend to last for ages. I'd rather move on as quickly as possible

    Well, friendly survivors I take it as they need a specific objective like flashing the killer, pallets, etc. Usually I'm pretty compliant because honestly there are a couple ones (Like Ji-Woon's Main Event, need to knock down 2 people in one match) I literally wouldn't have gotten unless the survivors were working with me. His even takes so long to charge up, I was lucky to get one Event before 5 gens were done. If I act friendly in the beginning, I finish friendly. But if I'm not feeling friendly I will literally rush at them attack and let them know I'm not friendly.
