"Griefing"
How common is this in the DBD community? had a game as killer the four survivors did not attempt to get one gen instead they ran around me using flashlights, even when I knocked one down I had hardly no chance of getting one to a hook and if I did manage it they were very quick to get them down. In the end I went to another part of the map until they split up and I was able to get one at a time, had that not been the case the game would have gone on all night. I will add I would rather not have got any points than to get them that way. I am by no means a good player still learning, these players clearly had a lot of experience and were able to run around me at will.
Sounds like i'm moaning and should just get on with it, truth is I do not want to play a game whereby a big part of the community "Griefs" or trolls hence my question.
Thanks.

I don't really consider that griefing. And it's fully expected for survivors to screw with you if you are playing poorly as the killer, plenty of perks and items exist soley to mess with you. That's the fun part of playing survivor.
As an experienced killer it is exceptionally rare to get genuinely bullied, usually reserved for 3+ man sweat squads. If you are playing well, the survivors are constantly burning pallets / hook stages. They can only last in the match so long before people start dying.
There's plenty of anti-bully perks available as well. Forced penance and lightborn come to mind. Both can be pretty god tier against coordinated teams since it basically forces them to go do gens instead of mess with you.

This was in the first minute of the game, I found one then the others joined in. It was not a case of they played the game then decided to play around because I was bad, they had intentionally gone into the game to troll they even admitted that post game.

Well you just answered your own question of “your” definition of griefing. The really only thing that irritates me personally is when playing killer and the survivor will purposely keep going back to the same area after they wiggle free cause I just simply can’t get to a hook and I’m forced to leave them on the ground when I don’t want to. Killers that body block you into a corner as survivor and afk is gross.. These don’t happen alot so don’t worry.

You did good in changing up your gameplay, it breaks the status quo.
Besides that, the survivors don't really get anything done that way, and you'll eventually win, also, the games can only last max 1h, then you win by default as killer.
Keep praccing, remember dbd is all fun and games, it's not competitive, you win/lose nothing.
Good luck out there.

Was unaware there was a cap on the game good to know thanks. I do normally have some good games win or lose I really don't mind losing to a good team who played well, this was different something I had not experienced.
Thanks for the reply.

It's pretty common, unfortunately. It's not the majority of people, but there's a sizeable portion of the community that thinks it's okay to do that stuff.
