@Koochi-QI usually just laugh when people are being toxic, or just generally which has turned some to be toxic.
I used to have some not so friendly outbursts but hardly as much now as I don't take it seriously, which also makes me laugh when others do so you can see how this goes round.
@IlIlIIllIlIlIl I prefer being surrounded by those that positively criticize to help me learn and improve than those that just give me compliments.
Example - When I streamed briefly during S2 for a handful of people I always got this one guy that said positive things but they were ego inflating comments that didn't really do anything but someone else who rarely came on but when he did he always criticized my moves and decisions which annoyed me at the time but after looking back I valued a lot more and it actually helped me improve as a player.
@DarthValtrexI was going to bring up the twilight thing but no comment.... xD

@Koochi-Q you know I don't use a mike and don't communicate with text. Don't lower yourself, remain aloof.
Ping....... "suprise"

@apostolateofDOOMYou mean you don't like Sergeant Gunny types?! I really want to quote him but I'm fairly confident that would get me into trouble. I'm actually fairly chill.. I don't hand out advice unless people ask for help. I might occasionally ask for a portal, zip or one of the abilities from a teammate. Every once in a while I get a really new player, most of them you have to guide with their ult/abilities. Nothing like being with a new Gibi player who throws down their ult inside of the tunnels near train yard.. My heart rate increases and I go into full on panic mode. If we survive, I become the most passive player in the game hoping for top 3 and third party opportunity.
Worst I do now is a "what are you doing looting?! We are engaged in a fight!"
@OldTreeCreeper I don't mind no mic players. But mics definitely help with looting and clearing areas, especially if you're looking for certain guns or certain attachments. I have a teabag system.. Teabag if you need this or that. Let me see what guns you have, so I can look for attachments..

@DarthValtrex I know mics help with the team work but I really dont have time in my life for this toxic nonsense i hear so much about here. Apart from the fact that I cant use a headset due to aural issues anyways
I listen to my teamates requests for weapon upgrades and that generally gives me an idea of what they need.

I do it in an anti-toxic way.
Maybe subtle overtones of smugness at most.
But if someone appears to leave fairly unreasonably, like they weren't out. Or could have got revived easily or respawned etc. And we win.
Then I usually will send a screenshot of the stats screen with the text
"You should have stayed!"
I don't do it to troll or anything, just in hopes maybe in their next games they'll think twice about abandoning. That's why i send it with a neutral/happy tone.
In vain attempt to improve the game.

@Koochi-Q I agree with what you said but think it was a bad example.
@DarthValtrex I don't give advice to randoms now even in ranked as it usually falls on deaf ears anyway.. unless like you said asking for an ult and I also don't do backseat gaming as I know how off putting it can be but I might talk to them about it after.
Sergeant Gunny types just shows a heated passion and sometimes they're quite creative but laughter is the best medicine and they don't like that.
