Stop giving up your teammates position

I had this exact thing happen earlier. I was playing Scratched Mirror Myers and when it was down to the final two I saw the Meg was working on a gen then slipped into a locker. The Quentin had been crouching around alot through out the match. He tried to snitch on the Meg in the locker. I downed him and pulled her from the locker. Hooked his ass then gave the Meg hatch. Such a satisfying ending.

Alas the good old days dear friend 😑

I use built to last on about 60% of my builds. I'll also duck into a locker during hook or when the killer gets close. It amused me the people that get bent out of shape.

I just resigned myself years ago that many people are turnips

My opinion on this one is complicated. On one hand, I do not like rats. However, I also acknowledge that sometimes a player has it coming.

When I'm playing killer and I'm presented with a player ratting on another player — not just taking chase past where someone happens to be hiding or working on a gen, because mistakes happen — but rather tries to lead me to them, do the whole point and teabag nonsense, etc., my reaction is to injure the person hiding to ensure some pressure, then immediately down the rat. If I can also down and hook the one that was hiding, better still. Like, I'm not going to let the person hiding get away Scott free, but I also don't like promoting ratting.

However, I play enough survivor to also recognize that some players are just sandbagging jerks. Intentionally blowing up gens or failing heal checks to give away your position, watching you slowly die on hook in your face while bagging, double-fast vaulting next to you while you're working on an objective, then hiding to make sure you're the one found by the killer. As to their motivations for behaving this way, who can say. But the result is to make the game an unpleasant experience while also trying to be the last person to escape. So I can understand why a survivor, when presented with a player acting in this manner, would feel compelled to try and turn the tables and rat their position out to the killer.

The problem is that there is no way to clearly communicate any of the context to the killer, and no guarantee on how they'll react. The best solution I can come up with is that if I'm playing survivor and the behavior of a troll survivor has become so egregious throughout the match, the best I can do is just offer them no aid. I won't go to unhook them, I won't offer to heal them, I won't work on a gen with them, and if I see them in the match, I leave the area. I effectively leave them to their fate and do my best to avoid them like the plague.

If I'm playing killer and confronted with a rat and their fall guy, given what I've previously stated, the most fair thing I can do is put both of them in the dying state and hook them both. As the killer, I've got a job to do and that job is sacrificing survivors, so I'm going to try to be as impartial as possible. However, if I actually do witness someone intentionally trying to sandbag their teammates at the start of the trial, I'm not opposed to making them a priority to remove from the match early.

The only thing I dislike more than a rat is a troll.

I've seen that happen to Built to Lasters you guys have it rough
