Astral Member Oct 27, 2017 33,335 You know what I'm talking about. You just know they're such a sick by the way the jump, the way that they run, the way that they DP, their choice of combos, etc. You can tell who the jerks are even in games that don't have a taunt button. Losing to this type of players makes me salty as hell and winning doesn't do anything because you know they're too big of a jerk to care. Fuck these players. But in all seriousness, I find it funny how I'll immediately make judgments about a person's character based on how they play or if they beat me in a way I don't like. I love this genre.  Pendas Member Oct 28, 2017 6,559 Anyone who ledge grabs is not welcome in my house.   QisTopTier Community Resettler Member Oct 25, 2017 15,126 You're the exact type of player I prey on when I notice it in ranked.

Click to expand... Click to shrink... It's exactly what I thought of lol. There are a select things I do find unambiguously disrespectful though. Teabagging of course but worse than that is when someone much better than you suddenly decides to do dumb stuff like jab the whole match. Anything that indicates they're not trying at all. Like, don't accept the rematch then.  Tuorom Member Oct 30, 2017 11,581 Me when I just spam a normal because they can't seem to figure it out   nekonekoneko Member Oct 1, 2024 266 I can't seem to play fighting games because there seems to be a strong section of the playergroup who believes that taunting the other player to make them angrier is a legitimate play. I sort of think that it's a horrible mindset for a game, as well as mostly just an excuse to bully someone that's weaker... maybe I'm just making excuses because it works so well on me?   Ferrio Member Oct 25, 2017 19,762 Astral said: It's exactly what I thought of lol.

If someone is doing that then you need to come at it from a learning position. They're giving you a chance to learn how to counter it.  Cipher Peon One Winged Slayer Member Oct 25, 2017 9,639 I taunt all of the time, be it in game taunts or spamming the crouch button. Depends on the character I play as really. I wouldn't say I'm nice, but I don't think I'm too mean either haha  Musubi Unshakable Resolve - Prophet of Truth Member Oct 25, 2017 27,464 Astral said: It's exactly what I thought of lol.
