This double standard needs to go away

Sorry I forgot it fades out the chat.

I was just having fun with them no anger at all. If you bm i bm back and after the match no hate from me. Apparently pointing at a killer after a stun is ok but me smacking them once on hook isnt. This community sometimes XD

    Is pointing really bm? Now i understand tbagging. But i usually say come here when i stun or throw pallet because im asking to be chased more. Not to be mean. But i guess everyone interpret things differently i suppose

    I'm not? I run into it a lot actually. I thought it was funny so I shared

    I know there is a challenge for that, but even then there is no way in telling.

    but I will def Bm. as revenge for Bming.

    don't know why there angry.

    Guess They don't like the taste of there own medicine

    Pointing during a stun? How is that not bm? Its like haha take that. I do it sometimes too

    This one was kinda funny. There was a guy mad on my profile that I used a map offering and comparing it to hacking.

    He also claimed that I "ruin the game for new players" and was saying he still won morally because he ran me for a few safe pallets at the end of the game before dying

    Dbd things

    There is a challenge to point at the killer after a stun. but it happens so often there is no way 90% of the people are doing it

  • Quizzy
    Quizzy Member Posts: 862

    Idk. I mean in that case, stunning the killer in the first place is bm because you caused them pain and more time. There really are players that take stuns personally whether its from head on, pallets, power struggle, DS etc.

    What really? Thats hilarious. I havent gotten to it yet then

    Pallet stuns are actual gameplay lmao. Pointing is added for salt. Idk how you correlate the two. Its ok that they pointed and bmed. I'm 100% ok with it. Surely you're just kidding

    Indeed. Had a Mummy Dwight in my last match on Garden of Joy who vigorously BMed me at the first palette he dropped in my face, some 30s into the game. At the next palette I got and downed him and slapped him once on the hook.

    Next time I saw him was when he bumped into me in the house of joys upper floor and took a hit. After that he jumped through the window, but I took a shortcut through the open wall and he landed right before my feet. When I downed him he instantly DCed.

    This happens so often, ie cheeky survivors BM you at every opportunity they get, but when you ######### gears and show them the love the so ask for, they get salty and either kill themselves on hook or even DC. Whatcha gonna do with that? Just kill everyone else and proceed to the next match.

    Yes, it’s real. It’s a current tome challenge. I’ve never seen anyone point after a stun before and I doubt it’s very common at all. Because usually people hope to stun and buy more time before they go down.

  • ArchAbhor
    ArchAbhor Member Posts: 847

    I do it sometimes. Either to get them to commit to chase or its gloating. After which is followed by a "You little poo" by the killer. Me in this instance lol. Makes some people salty.

    One of life's greatest truisms is that people who dish out the most crap are almost always unwilling to eat any.

    The either talk crap after (or try to), or DC. If I had a dollar for every surv that BM'ed me and then DC'd when they went down or put on their last hook, I could retire in style.

  • KateMain86
    KateMain86 Member Posts: 2,374

    The problem with hitting a survivor on a hook is that they can't do anything back. You got them on the hook, thats enough. You don't need to hit them while they're down even more. I've had killers hit me on the hook for the entirety of the hook timer. They didn't care to win. They only cared to be toxic. As long as survivor/killler interaction is able to happen then I think everything else is fine but when you're on the hook and can't do anything but hang there and watch your character get hit over and over again, that needs to stop.

    Is that really BM ? If a survivor emotes at me after a stun I often take it as playful banter and headbang at them in return, so they know I'm in for some joking around. It generally makes the mood of the game pretty light-hearted afterwards and I've never had complaints about it. :)


    Though if this is really a challenge, then I wonder what went through the challenge maker's head. This community is already known for being susceptible and prone to BM, I don't know why they would think it's a good idea to exacerbate that.

    If u think that pointing at the killer is toxic u are a little too sensitive , no offense, as the guy that thinks that pallet stun the killer is toxic, at the end of the day its pixel on the screen. I could of understand the t bag after the stun , but pointing? come on, now everything in this game is toxic, looping, killing a survivor, doing gens, hooking.. It's becoming ridiculous

  • Sava18
    Sava18 Member Posts: 2,439

    So it's fine for survivor's to bm the killer which is something out of the gameplay loop but not for killer's. Obviously killer can sit there and do it for a while, but guess what? Survivor's can just alt tab and killer's have to continue to play the game as someone throws every pallet on the map and tea bags. It's a double standard, both side's are capable of in game toxicity and you are biased to your one side. The equivalent of a killer hitting a survivor on hook is survivor's tea bagging at the exit gate or simply waiting for the killer to force them out without any threat to their teammates, there is nothing the killer can do and the survivor's are just gloating about their win.

  • Eelanos
    Eelanos Member Posts: 437

    To be fair, I sometimes do it to say "Leave me alone!", not to BM them. Then again, it's really funny when they actually do listen and just leave me alone. I never expect it to work, but sometimes it does lol

  • nora_the_explora
    nora_the_explora Member Posts: 104

    The OP said he got pointed at after a stun, not t bagged, a different thing, plus i don't understand how looping and throw pallets it 's toxic, somebdoy really needs to explain this to me?? what u expect surviviors to do?? stand still for the killer to kill them?

  • nora_the_explora
    nora_the_explora Member Posts: 104

    the OP got pointed at , not t bagged, a different thing, plus somebody rellay needs to explain to me how LOOPING and THROWING pallets is toxic cause i don't uderstand... do u want survivor to stand still so they can get 2 tapped ??

    What I see is a killer finishing with 57K.

    I then see 10, 14, 18, 20.

    You sweated that game as 'fun' then wondered why you got a few tilted at the end?

    Rofl you're just here 'karma farming'.

    Yawn

    Moving on.

    Ooooh I LOVE triggering survivors who BM. You teabag or torch click after a pallet drop and I will tunnel you harder than a dwarf looking for precious stones. Even better when I get hatemail after lol. I doove how bully squads tend to stop BM ing me midmatch once I'm putting them under real pressure.

    Just a note I am generally an extremely chill killer if you have good manners and just play the game. 9 times out of 10 I'll let last survivor go and if you offer me an item I'll make sure you dont go further than 2 hooks 😁

  • Crowman
    Crowman Member Posts: 9,563

    It really does. Almost every form of survivor bm gets defended, but even the slightest killer bm gets complained about. You really can't have it both ways.

    Either you dislike bm in video games or you don't care.

    Everything is bming coming from killers - oh, you're still on the map after hooking a survivor? Camper - Oh, you hit the Survivor that got saved with borrowed time and is bodyblocking you now? Tunneler - and God forbid you actually go after the survivor trying to flashlight save once you got a down, you filthy slugger! Also emoting and tbagging isnt bming that just uhhhh yeah uhm uhhhhh dancing because survivors felt the vibe yes!

  • ArchAbhor

    If you read my post, which you either didn't or just ignored most of it, you would see where I said, "As long as survivor/killler interaction is able to happen then I think everything else is fine." So no, I didn't say its fine for survivors to bad mouth the killer but not the killer to the survivor. I said both of them can do it so long as both are able to interact with each other. When you down a survivor and put them on a hook, you won that interaction. Hitting them on the hook is a means for the killer to be a jerk to the survivor while they can't do anything back. Its very unsportsmanlike. The only thing you're doing hitting a survivor when they're on a hook is showing how toxic you are, which is probably going to lead to an altercation in the post game chat. If you get so triggered by a survivor that you have to stand there and hit them repeatedly on a hook for something they did to you then thats probably a good sign you need to take a break from this game.

    BM is has the same meaning as being toxic and having a toxic /wrong behavior towards the opponent, basically the same thing, and I stand with what I said. If u felt that getting pointed at is BM then u are a little to sensitive again, no offense. And no how am I exaggerating when there’s literally a guy in this post that say that survivors that pallet stun the killer and loop are toxic?? It’s literally ridiculous.

    I'm very thick skinned lmao. As I have said in the original post I have no issue with it. No the post is about how bm should be treated as bm. All are equal. The person after the match didnt like my version of bming in response to theirs. The post is about how for some reason there are people like you who think that its ok to bm one way but not another. Its tit for tat idc if its survivor or killer related.

    The very fact they started the comments with calling you out because of something they did kinda messes them up, because they clearly knew what they would do would annoy the other, so the moment they then try to claim you over-reacted is completely mute.

    Some hard bias here. bm is harmless banter. Hitting survivors on the hook literally harms nothing. If anything it just wastes the killers time. The point of the post is to point out that all forms of bm should be treated the same. In game banter. As someone else has already said just alt tab or walk away for a bit. We've all been there being smacked on the hook. Its silly not harmful.

    Glad you enjoyed. Nope just sharing my thoughts on a funny situation.

  • KateMain86
    KateMain86 Member Posts: 2,374

    It does wastes the killer's time so in that sense it can be seen as a win and an own for the other survivors. For the survivor being hit however it makes for a terrible experience because they can't do anything back. BM is harmless banter and I do think most of it is just players trying to have fun with each other. This particular form however is different in my opinion. Its like kicking someone when they're down. In all other things I've seen people do in the game, both sides had equal opportunity to respond and I think that is where it matters most. I will say I have had a few encounters of me being hit on the hook and I thought to myself "yea I deserve this" because I gave the killer the most trouble. At the end of the match we'd laugh and say GG. However most of the time in my experience it happens for no reason at all and the killer was just wanting to make people mad.

    Ah, so turns out there's a challenge to do this so.. in this case pointing was not true BM, but rather encouraged by the devs. But yeah DBD players get upset about anything. Endgame chat is just toxic 90% of the time.

    so thick skinned that u take a pointing this personal at the point that u feel like u have to bm back? plus how am i defending bm when i literally said that pointing is not bm and i did not say a word about the smacking on hook?

    To me it just shows u took it personally. its an emote, as i said , if they t bagged that would of been a different story.

    Yall need to chill on this bm stuff(survivors and killers) its just a game, go next and move on

    I always find that funny 😂 Getting smacked on hook always make me giggle, especially when the killer is struggling and looks all happy and ######### when he gets ya, its cute 🤣

    You have to take everything people say with a pinch of salt in DBD.

    I was recently called a dirty camping tunneling slugger and the worst type of player, even though I got 12 hooks & the game lasted for about 25 mins. The first person didn't die until about 6 hooks in.

    The best thing about it was the salty survivor spent the first half of the game with his buddy following me about trying to do flashlight saves and body blocking hooks. I was also playing hag with like 3 rank 2 perks, so that maybe bruised some egos lol
