Do I understand correctly that you didn't report them in-game after the match?
Yes, you do. I exited the game after the match, not thinking anything of it.
-
In no way saying that this happens regularly, but..
Unfortunately I can confirm they aren’t just making up a scenario.

You know, i've kept all my contacting to a "friends only" degree for a while now but this thread made me now open the dm's up again, so thanks for sending nice messages.
That’s great! I’m so glad it had that effect. Hopefully I bump into you so I can be one of the first to slide a bad pun and a nice message your way

Thanks! I don't play killer very often (not that great yet, this really is a game of patience and practice) but with any luck you'll be against me sometime. You'll know it's me if the killer deliberately lets you escape and says something nice afterwards.
And has the name "miketheratguy". XD
Hahaha let’s me escape AND nice? Sounds to good to be true.
I really need to start learning to play killer properly, but the public matches are just ruthless :’)
Hope I’ll bump into you some time! You sound like a fun person to play with/against.

@HawkAyeTheNoo said:
I like to message killers for numerous reasons. We've all seen a new nurse player learning maybe getting no hits or hooks, i like to tell them to keep at it and nurse is a learning curve and they will get better if you put the time in.
I also message every killer using Blood Warden, they're the true gamers in our community and i like to tell them so.
It’s great that you do that!
God, I had my first match against a huntress with Blood Warden yesterday and I got so damn confused like what happened to the damn exit?! It’s quite an end move and caught me totally off guard this first time lol

@DerZuntor said:
I'm always pretty happy after getting a nice message for a change, or chat with a Survivor in after game chat that's nice and not a total Salt Lord, but that rarely ever happens. That's also a reason I play the PTBs so much, players on PTB are much nicer than the people I get on Live Servers.
But I do also enjoy getting mean messages for some reason, every time I get a mean comment on my Steam Profile I'm almost happier than I am when I get nice comments, especially when the person writting it was something like a T-Bag Macro Tryhard.
Lol I get that. It’s hilarious to see people exhaust themselves getting angry at a screen.

@gibblywibblywoo said:
I like having conversations after the match sometimes. If I just don't feel like it I drop a Gg and dip
Understandable! I’ve been throwing in more jokes or puns now and they seem to like that more than just a GG so I found my tactic... I think hahaha

@[Deleted User] said:
Why wouldn't they?I'll take nice messages any day over toxic ones,nice or none at all than toxic.
Some have said they just don’t like being messaged in general or might interpret it as sarcastic because they usually get hate. I’m glad you feel that way though! I thought so too, in most cases it can’t hurt

@Nos37 said:
I don't know Morse Code. I don't have time to interpret crouch-spam
I just assume that most killers interpret crouching up and down as T-bagging, so I avoid doing that. Would be quite a skill if I could put some military grade message in a set of crouches tho

This has probably already been said (forgive me, I'm headed to bed soon and can't read all the replies) but most of the time you get "silence" regardless of which side you're speaking to, only because they've already likely jumped into their next game. Most people don't wait. I do, at least a few seconds at least, just to see. But then again I almost always say "gg" or sometimes "ty" for something specific or even a sentence specifying "just trying to finish a challenge, you guys enjoy your BP".
Whenever someone does respond - as one person did this morning when he thanked me after I desperately tried to message everyone to let them know that I (as killer) didn't participate because one of their team was AFK the whole match - it does make me feel good. It makes me feel good as survivor as well. I like the sportsmanship, the politeness. I also always respond, it sometimes leads to a brief little conversation. Not often, but every once in a while.
So don't ever hesitate to make a comment to someone after a match, you never know if you're going to make someone happy. As long as what you say is nice. :)
Very true! I always take a very tiny break to look at the stats and whatever before continuing, but I know a lot of people jump right into the new game like you said.
So far I’ve never had a killer message me without me doing so first, so I think it’s great that you do that often. I’m sure most really appreciate it.
Thank you for your response! I’ll definitely keep it nice, no salt will be coming from me hahah

@EntitySpawn said:
Couldn't really say, played the game since release and never really got a nice message other than the 12ggs within that 4+years period
I hope you’ll be getting more soon! Crazy that there’s so little people doing it

https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/252726/do-killers-enjoy-getting-nice-messages
Killers are just Players (and most play both Killer and Survivor). Most people, well-adjusted, like good manners and courtesy. I appreciate any kind, or at least polite, words. I like to thank my opponents for the game and say something nice myself after a match, win or lose.
If you run across someone being snide or salty, or somehow triggered when you are nice, just ignore it and assume that maladjusted person or someone having a bad day who decided to take it out on you. Such people are the minority and it is best to just let that stuff bounce off and move on.
@EQWashu said:
I enjoy getting nice messages as Killer (and survivor), and I also enjoy giving them as well! A lot of times I'll have killers that don't have a lot of practice on the character they are playing, I always like to give words of encouragement, and sometimes point out where they did an epic job (like random traps that got me, playing the loops super well, clever use of powers, etc).
At the end of the day, Killers are players, players are human, and a little bit of kindness in a day, can go a very long way.
@Dwight_Fairfield said:
Yes its always nice when you see some friendly players in the community. Its even nicer when they said they had fun playing with you, or against you. For example I got a nice message from a SWF recently that faced my scratched mirror Mikey;
@DatFastBoi said:
Oh hell yeah we do ! Getting a +rep with a nice message feels great too as it’s a reminder to never forget the great match or cool and memorable moments you had while playing against other peeps. Whenever i play killer i also try to give advices to counter the killer I’m playing or just some general tips to improve their experience. It’s not much, but as long as the intentions are good and that it’s not just a “Ggez noob git gud” type of message i’d say i’m always ready to listen to what my rivals are saying to be a better player and a more fun matchup against them.

This ^
From my experience the last time I played it is better to simply leave in silence and dignity. Most of the time their is either nothing or salt coming and only in matches were one got stomped, like only 2 hooks in the whole trial, they get a gg which then feels more like mockery.
I had this the last time when I played a whole Saturday evening in a row against purple/red 80% swf and then one of the last games I got destroyed by a few true rank 1 and they gave me a "gg" i crumbled and answered "not for me and so on" and they took their gg back and went full toxic since I wasn't appreciating it.
@smappdooda said:
I enjoy a civil discourse about what just went down. Good natured jesting about the match etc. When someone loses their tiny mind over made-up ideals it gets tiresome. If something crazy/funny/amazing happens, let's acknowledge it. If you wanna complain about how someone played a video game, that's what the steam forums are for ha ha.
@JPA said:
Absolutely, it makes a nice change when I receive one as Killer.
When I'm playing as survivor I will always at least say gg (even on a loss), if the Killer has played fair and not done anything obviously wrong such as camping the first hook (heck I don't even care if I get camped to death later on, if it was a close game, and I know that the Killer made the right move to camp me). Knowing that often survivors will be quite negative, I'll always try and be positive, just to keep that Killer wanting to actually play the game in a way that is fair to the other players.
I've noticed as well that they will always say thank you as well (the ones who post in chat anyway), so it definitely seems to me that others appreciate it too.
I think it's the only valid response if you are not a fan of toxicity in this game. Simply being silent or not being toxic isn't enough!
@_NIGHTMARE_ said:
Yes, always.
I'm pleasantly surprised, if a bit confused; when I say "gg wp" in chat and a Survivor throws the same "gg wp" back at me.
😅

Absolutely, you never know when your message might be restoring their faith in the community after possibly receiving absolute vile for previous games.
Not sure which console you are on, but on Xbox the messages won't go into their normal Chat inbox unless they know you, so sometimes that could be the reason for the lack of reply, I normally check it every so often but I am sure lots don't.
@PureDoctorMain said:
Of course and I also try to do the same. My job as killer is to give excitement to the game and make it difficult to complete your objective. So when I get a nice message I know I did my job correctly and let them have fun. Of course there is still that drive to win so sometimes if I've had a bad day or just not been feeling well I'll go more for a 4k rather than just havin fun since winning always feels good. Competition is funny like that ain't it.
@MadLordJack said:
Yes.
@CLAUDETTEINABUSH said:
I enjoy both good messages and salty messages. I'm pretty casual so I do feel better when I get compliments as killer, and have a good laugh when I get salty messages

I know I quoted a ######### ton of people, but thank you all for the feedback and your opinions! I’ll keep on sending the messages out and am even more excited about it now :)

You know I ended up doing that in a game last week, closing the hatch in a slugged survivors face. But I made up for it and carried them over to the gate and let them wiggle free and get the escape. They legit gave me a couple of good chases throughout the game and at that point I figured I won and decided to show mercy and let them take off. I've seen a couple of the big killer main streamers like Otzdarva doing that, showing mercy and letting the final survivor get the escape if they gave him a good game. I liked that and figured I'd try and do the same. I hope that that's ok and survivors don't take it the wrong way.
I think that’s fine! I would be very happy with it if it went that way. I was thinking of those killers who wait for you to crawl to the hatch while dancing on it, then close it, dance over your body and then hook you and hit you till you disappear. Like that’s just a little extra hahah

https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/2219802#Comment_2219802
Yeah the matchmaking in this game is just atrocious and by far the worst I've ever seen in any game, which is saying a lot because I thought Overwatch's system wasn't really that good. But damn, DBD is just there like "Hold my elo score". It is something that I really really do hope that the devs fix at some point though. I think a lot of their problems could be fixed just by fixing the way the ranks work.
But anyway, yeah all in all I just don't see the point in making someone else feel miserable if they've done nothing to me. The only time I've really done anything near as toxic as what some survivors do to us killers is when in one game there was this one cocky flashlight clicking teabagging survivor who taunted me at the exit gates, teabagging and clicking. I had NOED on (I was on my lvl 8 Ghostface with only two perk slots and not really any good perks available, so I gotta use what I got >.< ) and so I went and downed her and I guess she misjudged where she was standing cus I was able to pick her up after the down. So I went and hooked her and just started teabagging right back at her while she died on hook. That is the one and only time I've done anything really that is considered toxic.
But yeah I don't purposefully slug and only really do I camp if I've been gen rushed and I've only gotten like one hook in and they've gotten four of their gens done. At that point I'm like, ok I need to get -something- out of this before they escape lol. Also If I do end up slugging, it's because I see someone else hiding around a corner and try to get them too, but I always go back for the hook and move on. I don't ever just fully leave an entire team down and dance over their bodies until they bleed out, that's just a dick thing to do.
I know it’s important to break the cycle, but that survivor did kind of deserve it lol. I always get such second hand embarrassment when my teammates start teabagging and just leave.
Until now I don’t mind slugging that much. It is a little frustrating when they just down the whole team one by one, but I guess it’s also just a way to play and win. Every time a killer has left me to slug as the sole survivor I have always found the hatch (without their help) so I guess karma didn’t allow them to be toxic.
Closing the hatch in my face is definitely the most ######### move you can do in my eyes as a killer, but I honestly can’t even get mad over that either

@Marc_go_solo said:
For me, absolutely! Likewise, when I play survivor and the killer played well I'll compliment them on a specific reason why. People mostly react positively to compliments, but even more so if it's for a particular playstyle.
Good for you to spread positivity by the way! That is most welcome here. Also, welcome to the game!
The more I learn about playstyles and details, the more I'll give them more specific compliments without a doubt! And thank you! I'm really enjoying the game and community so far.
@Marik13 said:
https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/2219750#Comment_2219750
Yeah it can get rough, I'll admit. But I genuinely don't like the survivor style of gameplay so I'm stuck with just dealing with the killer abuse and screaming in to the void hoping that someone in BHVR hears about how broken their matchmaking system is. Personally as killer I try not to be toxic at the end. Usually I'll just say "Fair and balanced matchmaking I see..." when I see the survivors are all ranging from ranks 4-1 (I float mostly between ranks 13-10 btw). If I do end up tunneling someone out of the game early I usually apologize at the end of the game and give kudos when it's deserved, like if there was one survivor who just constantly jukes the hell out of me I give them credit for it lol. All in all, like I said in another thread, be the change you want to see. I try not continue the cycle of toxicity in this game myself as best as I can.
I really hope that they'll make a change! Thank you for being nice to survivors as well, I for one super appreciate it when a killer acts the way you do and puts in effort to break the cycle. Even my newbie eyes have noticed the matchmaking is quite off; like I'm rank 13 now and I've frequently been put with one or two rank 3-5 people against a rank 20 killer. It's odd but most of the time those survivors die first lol

@dspaceman20 said:
As a survivor main I love giving killers happy messages. It's nice
Agreed! Killers deserve a little compliment after the work they put in
@Johnny_XMan said:
I’m sure it’s safe to say a nice message is better than a not so nice one.
Sometimes though, it’s better not to say anything. Especially with a bad matchmaking.
I am not going to tell a newbie, “gg” when I know it wasn’t a fair match. I would rather not say anything and move on.
Hhmm yeah that's understandable! I guess maybe because I'm a newbie myself I don't recognize other newbies that easily so I can't really judge that yet.

Glad you feel that way! Definitely the best way to go about it with those kinds of people.

https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/252726/do-killers-enjoy-getting-nice-messages
As a baby killer main I absolutely do 100% appreciate friendly messages and light banter at the end of the game. Actually this happened to me last night after one match where one of the survivors complimented me at the end and I genuinely appreciated that and thanked them, telling them that I've still got a lot more to learn in the game. So yes, I like and I really appreciate that you go out of your way to send us kind words. It's refreshing after getting "gg ez" or "terrible killer" from sweaty red ranks who bully.
That's so great to hear! I want to start learning to play killer as well, but I'm apprehensive about it cause of all the hate killers seem to receive, so I want to make sure I never make someone else feel that way.
@Iudex_Nemesis said:
Yes it was nice but I only got them once in a blue moon. Now everything is set to private.
Sorry to hear that. Hopefully thinks will change and the majority of messages will be positive in the future.

@TragicSolitude said:
I mean, it changes from person to person.
In general, nice messages are nice. It's not uncommon for gamers to have social anxiety and stuff, though, so if they don't message you back, don't take it personally. They probably appreciate the sentiment but feel a bit awkward messaging strangers.
There's also the possibility that they get so much salt they're not sure if you're being sarcastic or not, so they don't want to risk sending back "gg" and getting laughed at. When I had messages turned on, there were times when I really couldn't tell if messages were genuine, salty, or mocking. If you compliment them on something specific rather than an ambiguous "gg," you may be more likely to get a response.
Hhmm those are defintely good points. I'll keep this in mind, thank you!
@rha said:
I do appreciate it and usually reply. The main reason why I'll keep crossplay off is so that people can message me if they want. I've had some nice conversations resulting from that.
That's honestly the best result I could hope for. Thank you for your comment!
@DragonMasterDarren said:
i mean if i was to pick between a "you did really well, was fun playing with you" or "######### you filithy (very bad racial slur)" i'd take option 1 any day of the week
yeah the choice between those two isn't very hard to make, sorry you have to deal with that.
@MrPsych said:
Hell yeah, I enjoy nice messages. I'll totally gobble them up every day.
I never go out of my way to message people, but I'll occasionally check if any message is been sent. If you sent me a gg and I get to see it, I'll happily reply to you and wish you a good day.
I'm so glad! Replies always make me so happy since I then know my message was received well :)

Lol I can imagine. My first salt message definitely caught me off guard.
@Red_Beard said:
Yes, I did. But long ago I decided I didn't need to see people flame me in the end game chat because of something I did they didn't like so I have my end game chat shut off and won't see it. Thanks for trying though.
Sorry that they ruined the chat for you, hopefully you can turn it on again some day but I'm glad you still play for your own fun either way.
@HaunterofShadows said:
Yes. Or at least I do.
Great to hear! Thanks for commenting :)
@Zwergz112 said:
I play both sides but a nice message never fails to brighten my day, made some friends afterwards too whether I did well or was steamrolled. There are people who will think you're being sarcastic though and others who just aren't playing to have fun but just to make others miserable but it never hurts to be kind. :)
I'm glad you think so too! I definitely avoid sounding sarcastic but it's hard to deliver a certain tone over text sometimes.
@AVoiceOfReason said:
Give respect even in a loss. The other side had to take beatings just like everyone else to get good. Its always appreciated.
Honestly, sometimes matches where you absolutely get butchered are quite fun. Either the killers just baffle me with their skills/tactics or the other survivors drop so quick that it's just comical. Even if I lose in a "sweaty" way, I still give props because why not.
@TheMadCat said:
I did it before. I was saying something nice to the Killer each time.
Until I got insulted enough because I said GG to someone who felt I was mocking them, until the other Survivors insulted me because the Killer was a Spirit with Stridor, because a Nurse slugged us all at 5 generators...
Now, I keep the chat closed and I click immediately on Continue. I just never teabag nor anything being BM in game, as I think it's also a way to show I'm just playing and not here to bully.
Some people just always have to ruin nice things. I think you still convey that you mean well with your behavior, I'm sure many appreciate it!
@Friendly_Blendette said:
I like both. I love when people are nice and wholsome but I also find it hilarious when players give angry message

I had one who admired how I annihilated the team with Trapper. That was a a few years ago lol. Id like to message killers but I play on console so can't. I'm a good sport and will commend players for doing well.
Sure they appreciate it! I love playing against Trapper just because I always step in the damn traps since I'm blind af and even the killer sometimes just stands in front of me like "Damn, really, again?"
@Dustin said:
tbh I'd rather players not contact me at all or try to talk to me. The community in game is exhausting enough to humor and read that it takes too much energy to even bother reading anything.
Understandable! When I see someone has a note on their profile telling others to leave or have made messaging them harder, I always back off.
@CoalTower said:
https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/252726/do-killers-enjoy-getting-nice-messages
Yes. When I destroy a team with nurse, I'll always say GG if I can. When I get anything other than people that tell me to commit suicide, I'm happy. When I get a GG back, I'm elated.
Glad to hear it! Nurses seem to be a rare treat to get matched with so I hope I can bump into you some day hahah
@Aneurysm said:
Yeah, although back on ps4 whenever the message notification showed up I always first thought oh god what is it this time
I did get good messages but they were buried under a mountain of salt, and I play pretty "nicely"
Sorry that it has to be that way, I really don't understand why people bother to spend their time on being salty. The first time I heard my message notification I was so excited since the guy friended me and everything and the game had gone pretty well, but it was a hate message lol.
@VioletCrimes said:
I find that they do, since I rarely play killer. I try to say something specific and sincere like “GG tense match!” or “GG most fun I’ve had against a Cannibal in a long time” so I hopefully don’t sound sarcastic.
Same! Sometimes it's hard to think of something specific for a match, but I try to throw in some suitable puns and things when I can.
@Beaburd said:
No, they're all masochists who live to be abused.
Yell at and degrade one, and they'll just scream: "Yessss demean me more, Daddy! What a turn on!"

Nah, kind words are great.
But I can't help but wonder what a toxic survivor would do if a killer did respond like that.
Degrading? Say less, I know the way to a killer's heart now ;))
@JordanMalicious said:
Yes :3 I like seeing survivors who are playful in lightly dissing me but also saying gg or that they had fun, even if they didn't escape.
If you have a bad game, please try your best to avoid being salty, just exit the endgame screen and que up for another game!
So happy to hear that! I don't really mind if I lose or have a bad game so I don't really get salty, but I'll keep it in mind!
@GeneralV said:
I most certainly do. It has been way too long since I've last seen a wholesome player :)
Let's pray to the matchup gods that we may someday cross paths then!
@JacksonWise said:
I'm on console as well. I wouldn't say you need to message someone every game, but if you think someone played well then go for it. I mainly play killer and I leave my messages open. It sucks getting toxic message but I can always delete or block those. It's worth it for those occasional nice messages. :)
Honestly, it makes my day to hear that you and other killers get happy because of it! Thank you for giving your input.
