This is a video game - not society. You keep telling people that they should just not do it but are getting upset that people are telling you to just accept it (or report it).
I'm failing to see the purpose of this thread anymore if I'm being fully honest.Will the real LadyGP please stand up.4 -

Teabagging is just crouching up and down. If you get offended by that, don't play multiplayer games with PVP.
The issue is toxic whispers and mass reporting. Lets get that straight.
I mean, with the OP, they don't need to teabag someone who doesn't want them to. Whoever they are discussing is obviously a known quantity. So, just don't teabag them. If they teabag you after being asked to stop, report them
That is the thing. It was dumb the day they activated this policy and its still dumb now. You don't ask someone to stop teabagging you, you just ignore it all together. You are begging to be made fun of by doing this.
Its like if you are in a room with a bunch of vets and then you giggle and say oh sorry I am ticklish. You just asked for a death wish even though you don't wish it.
Nah. It takes two to play. Respect that someone has declined and leave them alone.

But the definition that you posted also states that it is done to humiliate one's opponent. That alone is unacceptable.

Just because two things share the same name, it doesn't mean they are the same thing. The namesake is explicit, the online gesture usually isn't. That's why it has a separate definition in the dictionary.
It also says it's just done to celebrate victory, and other sites show a greater variety of uses such as tactics or fun. Depends on the context which is meant.

I mean... I don't know, it feels like there's some kind of odd logical flaw here. You aren't upset that players are murdering each other, or literally eating each other's corpses, or stealing from each other... all without consent. You're presumably fine with all of that, but don't you dare repeatedly crouch over my corpse! That has sexual implications and therefore upsets me.
I'm a Yankee and I'm not unfamiliar with the whole "violence = okay, sex = BAD" thing in our culture... but rarely do I ever see it so explicitly stated.
Reminds me of all the slaughter and doom present in Blackwood, which was apparently fine, but Gideon's famous Temple of Dibella is empty of any debauchery or lewdness whatsoever... because lewd bad.
I respect your opinion SilverBride, but I feel like your priorities are way off here. You're okay with me viciously stabbing someone to death, robbing them, dancing on their corpse, and even vomiting on them... but I better not get frisky with a few crouches. *shrug*5 -

You know, not to sound flippant... maybe the real solution here is a separate Cyrodiil shard.
When I go into PVP, I'm consenting to ALL of what PVP is. The taunting, the pranking, the stabbing, the chaos, the thieving, and the madness. It's a hyper-competitive, tribal bloodbath and I expect no quarter. If I get tea-bagged, I glare and plot revenge. "Oh, you'll get yours... all of you Aldmeri will get yours." That's actually part of the fun.
It sounds like you want the stabbing and the chaos, but not the pranking or the taunting. You want a PVP safe-space. "GG. You got me." *state-sanctioned taunt over body* "Tyfg."
I'd be fine with ZOS making a safe-space PVP shard for each mode, with strict rules on what you can say and do at all times... but trying to do that to the main shards is just a recipe for even lower engagement. I genuinely don't believe the average player wants that at all. It removes a core facet of competitiveness from the experience, replacing it with nothing.
Edit addition: all this talk makes me sad and more appreciative of pvp modes in games like Space Marines 2... where you aren't expecting to melta-gun people with courtesy. What an odd era.Edited by Ingel_Riday on 2 October 2024 17:023 -

PvPing does include the expectation there will be teabagging. Teabagging has been part of video game victory celebrations for 20 years. This is akin to saying people agreed to playing football but not touch down dances. Touch down dances aren't in the official rules, but they are a well-known and understood part of football for decades. The same is true of PvP and teabagging. I can't recall a single game that automatically bans it. And I know of multiple games that not only allow it but promote it through the use of emotes, sprays, advertising, etc.

No. They aren't wrong. Everyone is entitled to their own likes and dislikes. The report clearly is doing something or there would be no complaints about bans over it.
At the end of the day we all agreed to the TOS.
And the official position is that it's not automatically against the TOS. However, if someone asks you to stop, you stop. That is a reasonable compromise so that both sides can enjoy the game the way they want to play.Edited by spartaxoxo on 2 October 2024 17:031 -

No it doesn't. I've played several MMOs and I PvP'd in all of them (not as much in ESO though because I don't enjoy Cyrodiil) and I never heard of this practice until I came here.
Some players may expect it and think it's just a part of PvPing, but there are many that find it offensive. That is why there have been so many discussions on the subject.

Yeah, it does. I don't know which MMO you've played but all of the ones I played had it. Its been parodied in The Simpsons. Had tons of think pieces. It's included in video game advertising.

There is achievements for it in some games
THIS game has an emote that references it
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4LRHSDkRtXw
Some games have sprays for it
Honestly, that some players managed to play PvP games and never see it or hear about it is pretty shocking for me. It's been something that I have seen very frequently in every PvP game I have played for like 20 years. I'm not kidding when I say I see it as ubiquitous as a touch down dance. It is very, very common in my experience.2 -

No. That people aren't using it to be lewd is what makes not a lewd gesture. I mean, would you say a cocktail is lewd just because it's named after something lewd? Would you call flipping the bird lewd? People mostly just mean "LOL you lost" and this is the meaning that noted in the dictionary. The dictionary would obviously use the most prevalent one and it did not include anything lewd in that.
Most modern references don't even make note of that. They represent it with literal tea, which is a beverage with a lot of pop culture cache in general.Edited by spartaxoxo on 2 October 2024 18:081 -

The gesture itself does represent a lewd act regardless of what the player is using it for... which, by the way, is to humiliate and taunt the fallen player.
If someone was to expose themself on the street to another person they would be arrested. Claiming that they didn't mean for it to be seen as lewd won't keep them out of jail because regardless of intent the act was lewd.
As another poster suggested they could make a no crouch zone around dead bodies. Problem solved.PCNA4 -

Everyone is fully clothed while teabagging. They are just doing crouching. It's not even always done on the other person. Plenty of people just do it in place.
It is named after a lewd act because the up and down motion resembles it. But, absolutely nothing else about it aligns with that. Not the intent. Not the established meaning. Not the physical touch. Fully clothed. etc.
You wouldn't get arrested for flipping the bird to an opponent after beating them in a board game IRL. And that's also got a similar origin story.

Lixiviant✭✭✭✭So you got teabagged by a 12 yo and are upset. This is a game; not real life. And, you are in PVP, for god's sake.
Do I think it is right? Hell, no, but you are dealing with real immature players, not NPCs (just wanted to remind you about this).
If think the real travesty is the banning of players that haven't done anything wrong but get reported by the Karens of the world.

As I asked for clarification on earlier, it is often difficult for a player to request that another player not teabag them because of them being in a different alliance, or being in offline status, or even having a very difficult name to spell with characters the player may not have on their keyboard. So what is a player supposed to do then?
Agree or not, some players do find this offensive and it needs to be easier for them to protect themselves from this gesture rather than requirements that may be impossible to meet. So something needs to change.Edited by SilverBride on 2 October 2024 19:37PCNA3 -

Ok, but here's the thing you don't know and I don't know what's in the mind of the player shoving their virtual private parts into my face. What I do know is how that makes me feel.
Humilated is one word for it. It's not done simply to celebrate, it's done to humiliate. That's in the definition you posted. I don't think doing something that will make someone else feel that way is a good thing.
