Stop Harassing People

Some players need to grow up.

I understand that when you as a killer win against a group of survivors they are probably gonna be mad about it. I recieved my fair share of "noob killer" and stuff after the game in the chat, but now people literally looked up my other social media and went to comment horrible insults and dislike everything. This is just not okay.

    The internet could of course be kinder, there is always space for more neutral and positive feedback around the DBD and internet globe. I find it atrocious and dis-heartening that people talk so poorly about others. You and all of us need to acknowledge though, you're playing with and should expect random, hurtful comments from people you don't know.

    If the harassment has gone too far, please report them and talk to a DBD staff to see what they can do.

    Yes, I completely understand. That's why I mentioned the chat thing. It's whatever when someone says stuff in the chat after the game. But when they then take their time to go around insult on other platforms that are not related to the game, I have a problem with it.

    Already reported them. Thank you for your quick responses!

    Call the Police. Not joking! If people harrase in real life because they got mad in a game, then this line is crossed. People got gamers killerd, SWATING, because of this.

    It's one thing to say "Noob Killer" or whatever, but this is going too far.

    That behavior is reportable. Sadly, you do have to think about privacy and hiding your profile etc from people in this game. That take it way to seriously and personal. I'm not sure how it works for all platforms, if that is possible. But hopefully you can hide your personal details.

    I had someone get pissed off. Told me that I was cheating as the killer. Said they reported me my profile as well as my IP address. I play on console so idk how they would be able get it. Calling me a loser ect..I'm just like ######### wat? I tried asking how I cheated. They just got defensive about it. Then asked if they were new or something. Cuz it seems like they didn't understand. The killer has the ability of seeing the marks of someone running. But that's EXTREME finding my IP address over a game.

    I have been told to kill myself multiple times in this game. I'm just like "What?" Even people SPAMMING it so thats all you see.

    It's a game. Calm the hell down

    I don't know BHVR's policy on that, as technically it's not actually directly DBD-related. Sorta like if you get someone raging hardcore at you on your Steam comments, that's a Steam problem and not a DBD problem even if the comments directly reference DBD in a way no one can deny.

    It's obviously incredibly pathetic behavior but if they are genuinely talking mad trash and blatantly dislike bombing you then you could try reporting them on the site in question.

    This is why I have everything on lockdown. I don't care about people crying that my stuff is set to private. I know what idiots are capable of.
