✭✭✭✭✭Reality check here is that its all pixels so anything that is being done is entirely symbolic and meaningless if you don't already know what it is.0 -
Seadle✭✭✭Maybe your daughter will sprout wings from her back and leap forward creating a damage barrier around herself if she continues to watch?

Raash✭✭✭✭Ah the legendary storm in the teapot! I have heard of it so many times before but never been lucky enough to spot it. Happy days indeed!
On a serious note, i hope you can recover from the trauma of this.... experience.3 -

✭Depending on how young your daughter is, Id have just said they are being silly...or they are dancing... its not like you have to explain exactly what they are doing lol! This really isn't that big of a deal. And yes, I have children, 3 of them ages 7-17. Kids have to deal with worse in school, where things are real.
Is it immature? lol maybe but this is a video game and in pvp things can get... hairy and some people really feel like they have to 'give it' to the enemy. If its that much of a concern, don't let her watch. Also, you could just go respawn instead of taking it in the face!

✭I'm more confused you stuck around and watched it happen knowing a kid was around that you don't want viewing the activity. /shrug
Either way though, suggesting ZOS should police when the use of emotes are appropriate is way more regulation than we should reasonably expect. The enemy survived, they should get their 'touchdown dance' as it were.0 -

✭✭Teabag? Yeah Im one of them. So im not allowed to press sneak after you are dead? Here is a solution for you: you can either have the death recap over you character so you dont see whats happening, or ress at wayshrine or something instead of laying there.Edited by OrphanHelgen on May 14, 2015 2:24PMPC, EU server, Ebonheart Pact

✭If you really want to be shocked at Tea bagging, go try CS for 10 minutes. If it doesn't happen at least an average of once per minute I'd be shocked.
Personally though, never experienced it here. Oh, is this on the NA Server btw?CP561 Redguard | Jabsy Templar | Stamina Build

✭✭If your daughter is too young to understand what tea-bagging is then maybe she's too young to be watching you play a game that is rated M.:trollin:4 -
Oughash✭✭✭✭Strange. Since 1.6 every time I enter PvP I get the same experience of the worst PvP in several years...but I don't get t-baged.
Hey Armitas -- it was good to see you on the field on Haderus last night. EP needs some more players to come fight and even the field. It is either DC dominated or AD dominated most of the time.0 -
Lenikus✭✭✭✭✭How to explain to your baby daughter > "Well hun, they beat me, so they are now showing off doing some /pushups to brag about their superior strenght.. It's kind of a small joke, really"
There.
But yea, it's funny to watch some dead guys get (...), even tho' i don't do it... I just /sleep and cuddle
spooning is best taunt... Mai cave. >:30 -
tonemd✭✭✭✭If your kids are to young to abstract it out just tell them they are doing EXACTLY what they are doing on screen. There is no explicit T-Bag or sex animation so just say they are doing squats or push ups for exercise to get stronger.
If they some how equate the animations to teabagging or someone *** your corpse, it's probably too late anyway. They are already tainted.
Given the level of discourse in zone chat, this is not a "sit you kid in your lap and watch" type of game.2 -
Kildayen✭✭✭✭✭If I was to kill you in PVP, not only would I teabag your corpse, but I would do it slowly and I will be calling your name out while I do it. And when I'm finished I will /sitchair on your face so you can stare at my bottom. I can do those things because I'm immature like that.3 -
Divad Zarn✭✭✭I'm not talking about the game alone, ESO is one of the best online game i ever played.
However, it's the player habit in the game, almost everytime I dead in PVP, other players will XXXX my corpse.
Last time my daughter was watching me playing PVP and asked me what are they doing on my char's dead body, which i don't know how to explain such a behavior to a girl.
If ESO is a small society, ZOS should be responsible to stop such an ridiculous and offense activities happening in their game.
it's like the broken glass theory, if they do nothing, it's just encourage other player to follow.
I remember exactly same in WoW when i was playing it, nothing new.0 -

Not a fan of these actions but it is common. After all you are playing with mostly guys mid teens through mid 20's.
But
The game is rated M 17+ ...........so don't let your daughter watch it.2 -
newtinmpls✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭No offense OP; but 30 years of playing and you want to pretend like this sort of thing isn't a regular occurrence in online multiplayer? This stuff is not exclusive to ESO at all and has not been for at least 10 years.
I had seen rather pervasive immaturity in the PvP.
Apparently I underestimated it.Tenesi Faryon of Telvanni - Dunmer Sorceress who deliberately sought sacrifice into Cold Harbor to rescue her beloved.
Hisa Ni Caemaire - Altmer Sorceress, member of the Order Draconis and Adept of the House of Dibella.
Broken Branch Toothmaul - goblin (for my goblin characters, I use either orsimer or bosmer templates) Templar, member of the Order Draconis and persistently unskilled pickpocket
Mol gro Durga - Orsimer Socerer/Battlemage who died the first time when the Nibenay Valley chapterhouse of the Order Draconis was destroyed, then went back to Cold Harbor to rescue his second/partner who was still captive. He overestimated his resistance to the hopelessness of Oblivion, about to give up, and looked up to see the golden glow of atherius surrounding a beautiful young woman who extended her hand to him and said "I can help you". He carried Fianna Kingsley out of Cold Harbor on his shoulder. He carried Alvard Stower under one arm. He also irritated the Prophet who had intended the portal for only Mol and Lyris.***Order Draconis - well c'mon there has to be some explanation for all those dragon tattoos.
House of Dibella - If you have ever seen or read "Memoirs of a Geisha" that's just the beginning...
Nibenay Valley Chapterhouse - Where now stands only desolate ground and a dolmen there once was a thriving community supporting one of the major chapterhouses of the Order Draconis0 -
Ezareth✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭I'm more insulted when someone doesn't teabag me when they eventually get me. If I don't have a full raid teabaging my corpse then I'm not doing my job and I haven't trolled them enough.
I really don't know why this bothers people....it is rather amusing.Permanently banned from the forums for displaying dissent: ESO - The Year Behind

✭i never do this myself.. in fact i /salute the rare enemy player who i respect.I play every class in every situation. I love them all.0 -
BloodWolfe✭✭✭✭Small things amuse small minds, as clearly you were a witness too.
That said, this is rated M due to players who are immature and do such things after killing another player and unfortunately ZOS can't really control the players and their actions which is in part why the game is rated M because of the player interactions that can occur.
This is not a game you should be letting your daughter watch you play, if you want her to watch then maybe stick to PvE?0 -
Hypertionb14_ESO✭✭✭✭✭
✭you have been playing for 30+ years but never played COD i assume..
even if not just that 90% of all online game play has this behavior now...
so either you have been living under a rock for 30+ years or you have never played a online competitive game.I play every class in every situation. I love them all.1 -
SeñorCinco✭✭✭✭Things happen throughout our lives that present us with less than acceptable scenarios. Most of which will not scar us for life but there is still that underlying understanding that is demanded by our moral compass.
Parenting is tough row to hoe. I gave them knowledge of all the potential bad before they learned about it elsewhere. You cannot blame the environment you hold when they are likely to be subject to it.
Now, as far as the tom foolery... I remove the player from the equation. I look at every rendering in front of me , not as another player but an NPC. Then they all become crazed skooma addicts.Edited by SeñorCinco on May 14, 2015 3:30PMWords contained in posts, at which point I stop reading and will not respond...

psufan5✭✭✭✭Quick remedy - after you die, you cannot see enemy players anymore. Not sure why we can see them now. If the enemy knows you can't see them, the wont bother giving you the dip dip potato chip.

mtwiggz✭✭✭✭✭In 30+ years of gaming you've never been tea-bagged before? I find that more odd than the fact that you're actually complaining about it. As far as tea-bagging goes I've seen it far less in this game than most games I've played.
Realistically they're just trying to help you get rid of those big black circles under your eyes. Really though. Its true.1
