Hmm, maybe my point may have come across different or more literal than I originally intended, so I want to clarify a bit.
I was using metaphors and extremes on purpose. We live in a world where interactions online tend to sway to extremes very quickly. I reflected that through exaggeration to emphasize my concern for the overall direction of the game and community dynamic.
Dead by Daylight is one of my few real escapes. My post came from a place of concern, not outrage for the sake of outrage. When I talk about toxicity, tunneling, teabagging, crashes, queue instability, and lobby issues all stacking together, I’m talking about how the overall experience feels increasingly exhausting instead of enjoyable.
I understand competitive mechanics and player freedom are part of the game. I’m not asking for every frustrating strategy to disappear. I’m saying the current atmosphere feels more hostile than it used to, especially when technical issues are already testing player patience what feels like far more frequently than it ever has in the past.
The “hot coffee” comparison was not meant to be a literal legal argument. It was an exaggerated metaphor about how sensitive and reactive modern context can become compared to years ago. Whether people agree with that comparison or not, the core point was simply that communities and companies BOTH benefit when concerns are addressed before frustration escalates.
At the end of the day, I care about this game a lot. That’s my only intent to express.

Weeks in advance, that why I originally posted my question here. I am not so keen on staying up to date. With anything, I prefer an element of surprise (;
But this season… Bruh.. I am a survivor main but decided to pick up killer this 2v8 for quests/tomes, and achievements. Not to mention I want to create a more well-rounded mindset and opinion of this game I am inadvertently dedicating my life too lol.
Completely understand that they are used for functionality purposes for game strategy, but once again the misuse of the strategies needs to be revisited. Although "tea-bagging" and "tunnelling" are not considered a reportable or 'bannable' offense, it can still be categorized as Harassment / griefing / as well as targeted abuse. I do want to out myself in saying I too have 'tunneled' as well as 'tea-bagged', and yes for the purpose in boasting. I do believe that in some ways it creates a more competitive, and fun gaming field. However, BHVR Intentionally not stepping in until an issue escalates though? Can't help but starting to think BHVR really doesn't care about their DBD community as much as all of the players/playing customers do.
In this day and age? Hurt the wrong persons feelings, the right way… (an entire franchise is sued because someone dumped THEIR OWN hot coffee on themselves?)
To say I'd be sad to see DBD discontinued would be a huge understatement. And for it to potentially be for something so easily moderated, if a little more forethought was put towards THE GAMES DYNAMIC.
I am fully aware this is a community forum, but I prefer to speak with other fog members on this specific matter. Seeing how BHVR has yet to figure out this themselves. Despite the number of players and/or paying customers support them.

Hmm pretty sure I have seen more than a few updates announced for bug fixes, especially when an event is ongoing, you know like kill switching characters for distorted camera angles, and global crashes. That's a hurting to following/customers.
I'd love to see where it was made clear that tunnelling and tea bagging are not considered toxic and are meant to stay. Please and thank you. Other than seeing a killer being created specifically to penalize tea bagging and emotes, I would REALLY like to see your resources. As far as my experience within the fog, and I have been playing since the game first game out, I will reiterate, the games dynamic is at its most broken, as a consumer who treats DBD more or less as a life choice, I want to hear promises of change. Dynamic change.
I appreciate your response to my question, as well as looking forward to any and all knowledge or debates that may come from my boldly stated opinions.
