I love the hatemails from Survivors (PS4)

You guys crack me up ;)
There is constant complaining on how I should/need to play as Killer
Things I get from you are like

  • tunneler
  • who places traps with trapper there?
  • only noobs use bbq
  • scratch mirror = hacking
  • you suck for popping tier 3 right behind me
  • you crouching pig noob (mind you folks, this wasn't about crouch camping with pig)

This list can go on quite a bit. Tbh, I don't care about these messages. They are very funny
and if someone goes too far... Well, they get reported and this has resulted in bans from PSN.

And again, my fellow SV friends: You don't make the rule how a Killer plays -> He makes them!!!

    I got my first piece of hatemail the other day on PS4! It was just a message that said 'pussy.'

    I did not respond. It was because I disconnected as killer because I was bored & frustrated playing against a super immersive team of Claudettes. Like, ¯_(ツ)_/¯ sorry that it was boring to walk around playing against invisible survivors urban invasioning their way across the map, especially after a string of bad matches.

    I think the one where they say "who places traps there" is them maybe seeking advice? I always ask the killer I face for advice.

    No. I placed them in places you usually wont place them and they constantly run into them. Sometimes you need to mix it up and if player think the traps are in the usual spots, they get careless in other spots and BOOM trapped ;)

    I got the best hate mail today!

    A SWF team with 4 tier 3 meta perks messaged me to say, 'get some skill' after I killed 3/4 of them with no add-ons, 1 tier 1 perk Pig.

    I keep them on because I don't get a lot, and I like seeing nice messages from people; but that's fair.

    I swear, SWF is even more toxic on console than on PC

    one time i got to face a bunch of 14-15 year olds that invited me into voice chat, i didnt have a mic so i couldnt talk to them

    they got mad at me so they started to throw insults at me, they even checked my account just to check my nationality

    one of them used google translate to tell me "espero que te deporten y que un narcotraficante se coja a tu madre" (yeah, i am not translating that one)

    another one checked my profile to mock me about the games i had

    Usually hate means that you did something right which they don't like and therefor complain just so they don't look as bad. I use hate as moitivation to continue playing the way I do

    LOL, I can't wait to main killers. I don't think I've ever talked trash to a killer before except for when I asked them to please stop rage quitting so that they can save the points they did earn while I was super new and farming to get perks on my bloodwebs.
    I've also sent messages of advice to killers who sucked and ragequit and they took it as me being a "Hater" and "toxic player" and that's lead to hilarious messages. Last killer I did that too said and I quote:
    "Survivors who stand by palettes waiting for the killer and who loop them are toxic and don't know how to play the game. I don't do that #########."

    I've also had teammates accuse me of siding with the killer simply because I didnt jump into their moshpit of floored idiots trying to cleanse hex totems while the killer is there. And sometimes I do just because it's hilarious and I don't hate not surviving but nobody ever sends me hate mail when I do for some reason.

    Once I got accused of siding with the killer because I teabagged a killer who floored a teammate, just soo happened to be doing it above the teammate and the teammate thought I meant to teabag them and kept doing the spam unhooking animation when I was hooked. It was hilarious because the killer was flooring all their swf behind us and leaving him to it then once all his swf got floored he pulled the guy who was way too into trying to make me mad off the hook and hooked him somewhere else followed by his sad friends. And then the killer and I laughed about it in PMs.

    Im a PC player. I love it! I save sreenshots of the best chats and I have my profile public so dead salty survivors can leave me their comments (I keep them as my little trophies).

    It's because survivors believe they have a say on how a killer has to play his role, so they make up rules of what your not allowed to do.

    They forget that a killer's role is to kill, not give out free hugs.

    Nothing feels better then a salty survivor who thinks he can tell me how i should play.

    I dont think they got banned but yeah I do get alot of Hate Mail. Mainly cuz I run haunted grounds and they get mad at me. The irony!

    All the entitled whining on how you "should play" usually sub-optimally case "its not fun" is why after a very short time, most killers quite caring about anything survivors say. Then they start to enjoy their pitiful whines and whimpers. You have to love survivers who bring out the true spirit of what it means to be a killer.

    The last game i said to a nurse who played very well for a rank 14 ''you are a good killer gg'' and he answered ''######### you''. What am i supposed to do? xD

    Console generally has a younger crowd than PC... and we all know how triggered kids get these days when something doesn't go their way. When you win it's "camping tunneling noob"... when you lose it's "gg ez baby killer". This world is so screwed with this up and coming participation trophy generation xD

    Haha loved getting this, but after that issue on ps4 where players could send messages that brick the console, my messages have been set to private. I do know it's been fixed, but I have a feelings its going to happen again similar to the IPhone messages. And of all games to get someone who will get pissed at you and try and ruin your console, I feel like it would definitely happen with dbd.

    Also, am I the only one who's made friends with people who sent me messages like this?? Like they'll say crap "Stupid fing killer, go jump off a roof" and after a bit of chatting we became friends xD happened 3 or 4 times for me.
