About reporting?

So I have toxic games it's fine but how can I seriously report a group of survivors for going overboard? Today was a bad day for DBD and I was flat out bullied not just in game but outside the game too. I won't say names but these survivors made personal attacks and gave me death threats how can I report them and will the moderation team actually do anything?

I ask this because sadly.. I'm coming from lowtier console and I wanna know who do I talk to and I see the report function but... I want action taken against these people and their behavior over a game isn't right at ALL nothing not even my playstyle justifies them ganging up on me spamming my inbox with rude remarks so I'll ask in this post how can I report them and how can I see action actually be taken?

    Unfortunately, reporting doesn’t work on DBD. The devs don’t care about what goes on in their game.

    Block them and move on. I’m sorry that more action can’t be taken against players like these.

    Shame real shame because I don't mind a block but I want action and it isn't right that people do this at all. My inbox didn't need to get spammed and I don't wanna hear from some random folks that I should KMS (kill myself) and that I'm an idiot who wasted their money.

    I like this game but this shows clear as day there are some really messed up folks.

    They mentioned in the stream today that they’ve changed the reporting in the back end for them and hired a team of “associate community managers” to manage it, I just don’t think it’s implemented just yet.

    The full details so I started a game of DBD picked the clown with a tier 1 perk and I knew this was asking for trouble an the game wasn't in my favor so as the game went on the survivors forced me to slug a guy (act of making a survivor bleed out) and well I I didn't get a kill because I botched it but right when the game was done and I saw entity displeased I got sent hatemail from each and every last survivor who spammed me down with "GET REKT ######### UNSTALL DBD" this went on for a good 10mins.

    From which I asked them why? Explained why I did what I did and that i'd report them from which I wonder how? How would I report them? From there I made this topic because I wasn't certain of the moderation of dbd because this isn't something I wanna block and forget no I think action needs to be taken from players like this.

    It's not the fact that I'm just offended again I know a block can solve the spam issue that took place but it's not that it's just I want action I don't want someone else going threw this.

    Thats it? Thats not enough to report someone. What else was said?

    Thank you... sorry I'm still a bit upset yes but I think the message still got a cross correct? I'm not just mad at what they did but it shouldn't be allowed or taken lightly.

    You must be new to internet. You will need to toughen up.

    just block them and ignore.

    It's not that I'm new I can take this but this isn't the issue the behavior shown should have action taken and shouldn't be taken lightly. "yes block ignore" but I'm thinking past that because what's stopping these guys from doing it again and again? There has to be a line drawn in the sand and I'm attempting to draw it because let's be real this type of stuff isn't okay and either way I'll be fine the next day right and it's not like I was stabbed.

    So I thought I'd make this quick reply right and make sure everything is clear and also I'd like to thanks those who have participated in this post I'm not trying to troll and I'm not trying to trigger anyone. So all I want to do is know that my report will do anything I want this to be addressed I want this to have the proper action taken and I've already done my part bock did the report and even made this post to ask if the report does anything and to see if there are any alternative ways to see this be addressed because the behavior displayed is wrong and should be addressed.

    your question was answered in the first post, you simply didnt accept the answer.

    nothing will happen and you havent shown evidence of anything bannable anyways.

    you will feel better tomorrow :)

    Sorry if it seemed that I was unwilling to accept your answer and it seemed as much. However, I wanted to read everyone else input and see if anyone else would bring something up also I don't know If I can even share screen shots and that is 100% my fault right there but if it is okay that I can share them maybe threw a type of DM to even sharing it on a twitter account I wouldn't mind and if you care for them reply to this.

    BTW this is off-topic now but I hope I didn't come off as a punk or a troll because I'm not new to the net I get block report move on it's just the circumstances that made me feel like "oh boy these guys probably need to be addressed..." again I apologize if I came off a certain way that may have caused any discomfort.

    No worries. Life happens. :)

    Me too. I'd report the messages to Sony myself. They have been known to block people from PSN for sending death threats and what not. It's worth a shot.
