That's where the problem lies.I believe there should be servere penalties for people who do that. I know its in the game but it doesn't mean you disrespect your fellow gamer with it.
yeah true, I only own the 3ds version so taunts and teabags kind of bother me thereThat's where the problem lies.
When it comes to Online Games people aren't going to care, or even give it a second thought whether or not they hurt your feelings. If they can do it, they will do it. If they can communicate with you there's going to be several who will abuse that specific feature to mock you, to dish out insults, to tell you they did your mom, and whatever else they can think of. If it's there, they'll abuse it.
I hate disrespectful players as much as the next guy. After all, I'm interested in having fun and not who has the biggest ****.
That's not what Smash, or any other game should be about. They can easily turn something enjoyable into a stressful train wreck especially if you let them get to you. The sad truth is however, is no matter what we do we can't stop these types from appearing.
We can report and block these types of players all day but you will find another eventually. It's also sad to say that the report function is a bit of a joke anyways. If they insult you through tags after the match they can leave with zero risk of punishment since you can only report at the Results Screen. If they taunt and teabag during the match you can report them; however that doesn't guarantee they immediately land in BanLand. I highly doubt it would do any good anyways given how tame the punishment is.
In short, our best option is to just ignore these types. We aren't forced to play against them. Once the match is over find someone else. Don't give them time to insult you through tags. Just leave and find someone more pleasant to Smash against, really.
It's rare, but good people still exist on For Glory. (Although I do feel like they're a dying race there)
