Maybe I'll make a thread complaining about the need to log in to play the game. Heck, perhaps I can take it a step further and complain about having the play the game at all.

ugh, i have to open a LAUNCHER to play my game?! screw it, SE has lost my scrubscription for sure. who even uses launchers now ugh.

and various other nonsensical BS that people complain about.

Let me say this.........People need to have respect for others in game, as much as they do in real life. I get tired of people saying, "Well it's just a game, get over it". Well it's a game with an actual person with actual feelings, running an avatar. Kill them in pvp and then give them a hug (be the bigger man). That's saying far more that it's all in good fun, then someone shoving their big butt in their face as they lay dead on the ground. We all know what this "one" gesture means. Forget all the other emotes available to you. You don't see football players doing this to each other in competition, wonder why? So quit saying it's a competition thing and it's a game. Geesh I can't believe some of the responses condoning this one emote's used in this way as being okay. I get what the OP is saying.

I wasn't really defending it for what it's worth. I was just pointing out that it has been a thing since online gaming became a thing and why it was and still is used. Because of this I guess it doesn't phase me much because I've seen it all. And yeah, of course you don't see tea bagging in real life competition sports like football. I think it's in poor taste to do so even in an online game but it's hard for me to feel much of anything else about it because of my experiences with online gaming going as far back as Halo and Call of Duty years ago. I see someone do that or something similar and all I really do is shrug.

You do see football players screaming on the ground when they get a slight nudge, and there was that one dude headbutting people. Another likes to bite people. You also get the fun of racial slurs being flung around in Football. One guy was taunting another after the dude scored an own goal. There's been incidents of players deliberately stamping on people...

I don't think Football is a good example. I would much rather have a guy teabag on my character, than be bitten in person, tyvm.

That's even worse! I'll take ass cheeks to the face over passive aggressive any day lol.

I agree with this. I once killed a bard trying to solo steal a node and all I did was sit next to his dead body out of respect, given the fact that I can't give him a proper burial.....Then I made my fat chocobo eat him.

Squat emote is a bad implementation, it allows people to sexualize and sexual harass people in PvP. Meaning, what people known it as "tea bagging". Just had it happened in all my time of PvP prior to this, I have never been experience such rude behavior. SE should remove this emote!!!

So report it. Why take something away just because the immaturity of others..
