Unsportsmanlike Behavior in PVP

Hello Guardians, [i](Make sure to read the edits at the bottom of this post)[/i] I am proud to say that I am an avid supporter of the Destiny community. However, there is a line that is crossed CONSTANTLY while playing Trials of Osiris, and any other form of PVP. Every week, I hop onto Destiny with friends and clan mates in order to dominate the playing field in order to gain the Trials gear. With that said, there are many groups of people that can best us, whether our game is off, or they are just overall better at Trials. After winning the match (and during the match), there is many people "teabagging" and showing unsportsmanlike behavior. Not only do people do things non-verbally, there is many times that players have messaged me calling me out for me and my clan's skill level, which I find disrespectful. All in all, I don't expect this to stop. It is sadly a part of the competitive gaming culture. However, I think that Destiny as a gaming community is one of the greatest. PVE is the prime example of this. Random strangers will help you out in tough encounters with enemies, help you complete the raid if you never have, cheer you on for gaining cool loot and much more things that make this game extremely different from any other. I would LOVE to see this more in Destiny PVP. I am not asking for the skilled players to be less competitive, or to purposely lose a round. If you want to go 5 - 0, do it! I encourage you. However, reframe from being rude to fellow players. They are here because the love playing the game, just like you. If this topic has been touched upon before, I apologize for not looking into it. I wanted to voice my own opinion and I hope that you can respect this. If you agree with this, please comment your thoughts. I would like to see this on the trending forum post so that Bungie can see this. [b]EDIT:[/b] After reading many messages, let me make a few things clear. I am not raging, nor am I a sore loser. What I am saying is there is a lot of rude people who play the game and that goes with ANY multiplayer game. That's how it is! And I am not a fan of teabagging because it is degrading and shows that the players think they are the shit. However I could care less. The thing that pisses me off the most is when people message me afterwards with rude messages. Now just because I dislike these things, doesn't mean I can't handle it. I love Destiny and it's community, and what I am trying to say, is that we are better than that. To all of you people who have commented stories of helping others to the lighthouse, congratulating people on their performance, thank you. You are the guardians that deserve the rewards. You guys have fought, won, and continue to win afterwards because of your awesome leader skills. [b]Final Edit:[/b] Thank you for all the feedback. Once again, this isn't about having my feelings hurt, or that people are bullies and need to stop (which bullying is a serious issue), its more about how you act. Most of you are taking the Teabagging part of this post to literally. Overall I am saying is don't be a dick. However, I did recognize that it is impossible to eliminate that behavior. I have been told many stories of cyberbullying that has occurred through Destiny, and I think that shouldn't be okay to do. [b] I am the voice for the people that are scared to be judged or bullied on online forums or in game for voicing their opinions.[/b]

  • The only reason I teabagged last night was it was 4-4 in ToO and we were on our 9th match and the other team amazingly had their supers every single round. When we won my character prompted to glitch out while teabagging into ultimate teabag of 1000 teabags a second. I couldn't help myself lol .

  • some xbox games actuallly give you achievements for teabagging im pretty sure in one of the mortal combat games, when it says "finish him", you have to squat up and down like 40 times instead of a fatality and you get the achievement. its just part of competitive gaming, dont be so sensitive. its just a fake in game character. are you scared you are turning gay or something?

    • The solution is if someone squats and stands repeatedly they explode.

        • lol if you take the game serious enough that something like t-bagging or hate mail is going to frustrate you or make you mad I think you should just not play the game. If I getter bagged I just lol and move on, who really cares because it is just a game.

        • My take on it is that if they bag you, bag them back until they stop.

          • I teabag only when tea bagged first. Then I play as dirty as possible. I pull off every cheap tactic I can in order to completely destroy them. I also reapnd to all hate mail now with this message. Automated response The guardian you are trying to reach is no longer collecting salt. Please try again later.

          • The teabagging has never bothered me too much but I get where your coming from. What bothers me is the messages, yeah I am not the best but that does not warrent being told to F*** Off and to go back to my barbie dolls. I've even had it from "friends" who if we do strikes I'm constantly reviving and carrying but I don't call them out on it and give them abuse.

          • Why do people let "teabagging" bother them? I could see if someone was sticking their sweaty balls and ass in your face "real life", but this is a video game. It's just an on screen animation. I could care less when it happens. It's whatever for me. I don't tebag... except to tebag someone back on occasion. I wonder if they get pissed? haha. It's just all in good fun for me.

          • If they're all using thorn, and have final round snipers, I will always teabag them hard.

          • I admit, I teabag after trials, but only after beating a bunch of try hards. Besides that, I usually wave and message ppl saying GG. I think that's the way ppl should play PvP; with respect and realize that the game is for fun

              I'm not a fan of the tea bagging but it doesn't bother me very much. I will bag someone only in retaliation. What I'm waiting for is PVE tea bagging. For example, every one in a hundred times you get killed by the Archon Priest he teleports over to give you a quick double bag! I would lose my mind laughing at that.

            • Lol this happened to me last night in the first round we lost and it was hilarious. I was trying to carry people and one guy on my team was using a auto rifle. So usually my team went down and I 1v3ed their team multiples times until it came to 4-4. I get the clutch and just wave. Lmao that these guys just got teamwiped by a single player. [spoiler]There might have been some tbagging in the end as well. Also I'm not trying to brag or anything just sharing a story I thought was funny.[/spoiler]

            • Human beings are assholes and unfortunately nothing that you can do will ever fix it. Best to accept it for what it is and move on.

              • I have found that every time I get t- bagged the person ends up haveing the worst kills then anybody, just goes to show that when your good there's no need for that kind of behavior, the score takes care of it all.
