How many players have left DBD?

We need a new system regarding reports and toxic behavior.
I think the devs took the report site down, because people reported for nonsense like camping, tunneling, playing a certain killer, perk or add-on. Which resulted in to much work for them.

You can turn your chat off?

With the ever growing toxicity through out the community pretty much across the board and with an increasing amount of hackers/cheaters and basically just zero consequences for bad behaviour I am curious as to how many people have actually uninstalled the game? I am sure there are a few and some who check in from time to time just to see if any of these very serious issues have been addressed. Personally I decided to start a new DBD account just to test something out, I played mostly killer and was called horrendous names and told to you know what for simply just being experienced at the game. Because if you outplay a swf team then you must be cheating! Granted I clocked in about 900+ hours on my original account but I just wanted to see what it would be like as a new person coming into the community and it was actually far worse than I thought. The fact that anyone can say anything malicious and disgusting without consequences means that toxicity is essentially being enabled in this game by not having responsible authority figures in place to take action. The fact that it has gone on for years proves the care factor is very little to none, the fact that cheaters can make 9 months worth of content and still not get banned despite actively uploading blatant video evidence for the entire world to see further proves there's just no passion and drive to protect those who have loved and supported this game.

If you stop caring about your game, the gamers will stop caring about it too.

Lol
Who would care what about something some random person had said to them?
Either grow a thicker skin or use that toggle button to hide the chat if it hurts your feeling so badly.
Seriously , don't see why would anyone quit a game because of that, it's so childish.
You're either a kid or a very sensitive woman if you quit a game because people talk s*** to you.

This is an incredibly ignorant of the problem itself. Perhaps it may not bother you, but that does not excuse the fact that the actual rules of the game are being violated and that there are people that do indeed get bothered by the toxicity. You have absolutely no clue what the person behind the screen has gone through, they could be having a bad day, be depressed or have had a rough past that make it worse when exposed to constant toxicity. You may say not to care what some random person has said to them, but bullying in the real world is the same exact issue of the fact that it's "some random person" that's taking time out of their day to make your own miserable and it has infact been proven that the impact could be the same if not worse then people doing the same thing in the real world. Also, like others I have to point out that your comment is sexist and I must ask, why specifically a woman? Edit : (Now perhaps this might not actually be your intention here, I'm just pointing it out)

TL:DR there's no excuse for toxicity and to say it's just a random person is ignorant and ignores the problem entirely as an excuse instead of fixing something that clearly bothers lots of people.

I have been told multiple times to go and kill myself and actively encouraged to do so. Imagine if i was really susceptible to this abuse and acted on this. Is this ok? No. Are the devs of this game doing anything to combat this? No. They even took the reporting feature out due to people reporting camping, face-camping when it is not even in the game anymore, for killing them. You know the game.

They have no issues releasing DLC after DLC but cant address actual potentially harmful abusive people.

I'm not arguing against this and in my post actually sides with the fact that toxicity like this is absolutely not acceptable. Though weren't they planning on bringing up the reports again in the future or am I mixing this up with something else? But yes, I do agree more should be done to combat the excessively toxic players.

There's more people paying this game than ever.

https://steamspy.com/app/381210 Simply not true, a couple of months ago there were 60,000+ people playing on a regular basis to which now the average is 30,000.

incorrect. the game hit a new record on july 2nd of 42.8k

Right. Bingo. He gets it.

Nice try at proving me wrong t00l. (cypraz)

I'm pretty sure the announcement of exhaustion perk nerfs and the double bps weekend being over may have something to do with the player count being halved, its the mid week as well. The rise in cheating could be another part of it(I've only seen lag switching though).
