If you're keeping your profile private, you don't have the right to leave a salty comment.
I just wanted to discuss this. Everyday, I keep getting a minimum of 1 salty comment on my steam. I wear these with pride as One salty comment = One Rekted SWF, but it just irks me that people are leaving these comments while keeping their profile private. You cowards! keep your profile public if you want to leave your cringy salty comment on someone else profile.
btw I know lots of people playing DBD that plays alot of H3nta1 Games and shows their profile with pride as well.

So? It's their right to keep it private. And it's their right to write salty messages to you, if you allowed that for all steam players. That's got nothing to do with cowardice. What does it change to you that the salty ones have a profile you cannot look at? How does it make their salty comment any more brave if you can look t their profiles?

We're gonna have comment wars? idk it seems normal for my region to have a profile comment war... I guess coming from having dota 2 and csgo, it was normal to have a nice and toxic salty comment war once a day.

I have zero salty comments on my Steam Account.

OK, whatever suits you ...
But, if they have their profile public, but friends only comments, do they still count as "cowards"? Just asking out of curiosity ^^

I think this is a thread more suited for Steam forums than BHVR ones, after all the ones who can enact a change to avoid that is Valve, not BHVR. Not that I care much but its similar to the "Bring Stranger Things content back" threads both things are not up to BHVR.

idk I haven't encountered that one? Those people are the one's that leaves nice comments.
Example:
I would love to leave a comment back for him but yea can't comment.

If your profile is open, anyone can comment on it regardless of the privacy settings in their profiles. So I guess it is their right, and you're giving it to them
11 -
They don't need the "right" to do so. If you ask me they shouldn't to begin with as they're either just being a jerk or feeding some weirdo that gets off on "farming salt", but if they decide to do so their profile privacy settings are irrelevant.
The way some in this community seem to feel genuinely entitled to seeing the profiles, friends list, hours and to have comment permissions on the profiles of strangers is just plain weird, even without getting into the strange general "Privacy shaming" you see at times ("you wouldn't have a private profile if you're not hiding you're a cheater/you're swf/you have high hours/you have malicious intentions!")

I though have 6 pages full of them. Some are pretty hillarious, especially if you know the games that inspired them.
I wear my comments with pride, too, but the vast majority of players, whom I want to write a little piece, have their profile indeed on private; they probably couldn't deal with all the salt, I guess? But to each their own.

not going to defend salty comment but your whole post assume they base their profile around DBD.

how tf are you doing to get a comment every day?
Im lucky if I get one in 100 matches and its 50/50 on it being positive or negative

Salty comments are what keeps this game alive.
I embrace it.

Also very good point!
I have a friend with some really expensive and rare CSGO stuff, and he attracts scammers and phishers. They didn't only add him, they also posted shady links in his comments (some of them got past Steam's filter too) or tried to add his friends (including me) in an attempt to account hijack and then impersonate us to get to the "target".
It makes perfect sense he put his comments and friends list to friends only. I wouldn't want to risk getting anyone clicking a shady link in MY profile comments to potentially get in trouble either, or have my friends get bothered by shady people. I'm sure he doesn't really care if that means privacy shaming dbd players will assume he's hiding pages of -rep cheater comments or he plays in a 4man every survivor match he plays.

Make only your friends can post comments.
I understand what you want to say and how petty those people are.
0 -
I dont agree, people can keep their profiles private because everyone deserves that right and while I dont know you and how you play/what you say.
But if someone is horrible, racist, a bully etc. Then yes you do deserve the comments, however if it's just over stupid stuff like camping and tunneling then whatever just ignore the stupidity

yeah, if you dont have an openly public profile, you have no right to free speech
/s
get over yourself

Me who plays DBD on ps4 and steam and has literally zero salty comments in the last month:
1 -
People who hide their profiles aren't necessarily doing it to avoid salt; they may also be trying to hide their hours.
As for comments, eh. I'll leave +reps to people if I really liked them, or give steam badges, but I won't write negative profile comments unless they were cheating. Anything I absolutely need to say can be said in postgame chat, they don't need it glued to their account.

Who actually cares?

No Way

I mean…. I’d say nobody really has/should have the right to leave salty comments? It’s just a game, say what you want in endgame chat but leave other people alone, if ya can’t do that you aren’t ready to be a part of an online community.

if someone leaves a salty comment on your profile you can literally delete it in two clicks

Ähm no. I do have the right while keeping my profile private. The thing is, you have the same right and can also keep your profile private if you dont like it.
The reason i have a private profile is that i, when i started this game 4 years ago, i used the same name for my online-persona, meaning i used the same name in games, forums etc (it was not common, and i have a gaming history back to 1998, there are transcpits of matches i played in starcraft around the internet).
When i started this game, a very salty killer started to stalk said online persona, registering in forums i am member of and sending me messages, and entering other games i played to find me (and if possible backstab me).
I learned, and since then, i use a different name for every forum, game, or whatever. And yet, i still have the right to comment in any profile that allows it.

I'll change that rq, hol' up-

It does make them more brave with an open profile because most of the toxic weirdos are beta as hell. Irl they are that guy getting annoyed but too afraid to speak up. On the internet, they are finally free to be who they really are without the fear of a pimp smack.

I only have one and it's from a player that said Good Demo Puppy hehe.

seems like u r not used to the internet

Why allow people to leave their nasty comments in your space on the internet? My profiles open for viewing, but only friends can comment. Of course, I don't go leaving anything on other people's profiles either unless positive. I just don't see the point in any of it -- it's all negative, so why hold space for it?
2 -
I'm really impressed how you know all that from complete strangers! /s
2 -
They can dish it out, but they can't take it. Yeah, they're cowards.
Plus they want to hide their SWF so people won't dodge or change builds, and they're also ashamed of their 1k hours in porn games.

I have my profile private to counter salty players. This does not mean that I go into their profile and write a "-rep", which is a huge waste of my time, in my opinion.
0 -
Yup.

How about just don’t leave salty comments. I mean what’s the point.

People with private profiles shouldn't even be able to interact with other people.
0 -
Ive never seen a game with this amount of people leaving a comment on steam profile
Ive played many online pvp games on steam but even with 4000 hours in cs i had like 1 or 2 pages of comments, mostly "hacker"
Once i picked up dbd and played killer i went all the way up to 25 pages
I find it actually hillarious and i keep it as a trophy of some butthurt players i bullied

don't like it then you can go private. mines private for other reasons but it worked out well

Ah yes. The bravest people are those who dont keep their Steam Private. And who keeps their steam profile private is not able to speak up in Real Life.
Sure...

Option 1: Delete comments. Literally, one click and bam, gone!
Option 2: Set comments to friends only/private. Literally 3 clicks and bam, no more salt from anyone! (yes this does mean private accounts too!!)
Additionally, don't bother with endgame stuff, say gg, and dip if it's really that big of an issue. People are entitled to the right to keep their accounts private if they so choose to, and you have no place to tell them they cannot express themselves just because their profile is private, unless of course, that expression finds its way on to your profile, in which a swift delete will end that stuff on the spot.
If you want to wear those salty comments with pride, then why care who or what type of account it comes from? Just wear it with pride or whatever. One last time, if you want to wear the salt with pride, but don't want to deal with private account salt... just delete it!
