    Some stam sorc named dugbug or bugdub or something stupid like that killed me and the proceeded to send me whispers about being bad and to go join a zergball with the other bads...

    I hope by all means he is an exception and not the norm.

    It has been toxic, for a while, hate tells, personal attacks along with what others have stated in the thread, throw the whole cheating thing on top and you got a toxic salty stew. Sad really :(

    Anything that involves player versus player involvement is also toxic and cancerous.

    Let's run down a list of things that the PvP community has ruined for everybody.
    1. Block stamina regeneration
    2. Damage shield duration
    3. Certain skills completely changed and useless
    4. Selling Monster Helmets/Shoulders because kids are too lazy to play a dungeon that's part of the game

    Completely agree...

    PC NA AD community is pretty... well I won't go so far as to say "friendly", but definitely at least "neutral" or "apathetic". Very few jimmies rustled in any kind of serious manner. People will still have the generic PvP complaints, but most of it's just joshing around, nothing to get bent out of shape over. IDK how the other factions do in that regard, and certainly no idea how other systems are doing, but it actually seems to be getting better on PC NA AD.

    The entire game is toxic, it's just that PvP is the largest carrier of toxins.

    Has it gotten worse? Absolutely.

    Between the cheaters that get slapped on the wrist for purposefully exploiting the game, exploits that are so easy to do that it's honestly hard to tell what's even legit anymore, lag so fierce that you swear ZOS is doing it intentionally to screw with you and so many bugs/crashes/etc that it's a miracle you can even play the game half the time.

    This game is going downhill fast.

    no where near as toxic as the korean mmos. Hell I think WoW was more toxic in general chat than it is here.

    "Toxic" is one of those special words, like "griefing", that gamers like to throw around regardless of whether they're using it correctly or not.
    Even on the internet, clear communication is important; it can be the difference between "helping your Uncle Jack off a horse" and "helping your uncle jack off a horse"; the difference between "knowing your s***" and "knowing you're s***".

    Steps to enjoying PvP:

    1. Find a good guild and make some awesome friends. AKA: AVOID POTATOES AT ALL COSTS.
    2. Git gud with your toon so you are not dead weight. You dont need to be Syper-tastic or Feng-QQ but just, decent enough.
    3. Don't take things to heart. Ie: when someone hate tells me I just respond with gf or =D. This sets them into a frothing rage for some reason and always cracks me up.
    4. And... Well that's it. Its only toxic if you let things like hate tells and tea bagging get to you.

    Lol if you don't set yourself to offline mode in pvp expect to get the git gud scrub comments, especially after getting zerged down 10-1 and tbagged. ESO pvp is what it is, ain't going to get any better I recommend trying something else I know I am.

    I play with a great group. They keep ESO what it should be a fun game to play! They are competive, we want to battles and take or defend the keep. But mostly we just have a great time.

    Here I am in IC minding my own business and boom I get killed by a zerg of EP. I don't even fight back anymore even during a 1v1.

    Wow, and I remember when AD was the zerg in IC. I couldn't make it out the sewers without getting ganked.

    And I always fight back. Even if I know I'm going to die. I always, always, always fight back.

    Exactly. If someone wants to kill me, they're gonna have to work for it. :p

    PVP has been worse of late. The toxicity of zone chat in particular. Between fighting the game due to lag, fps dropping, and the 100+ zerg at an outpost, people's tempers are short. Then when you add a guild that rather loose every keep and both scroll while they turtle in one keep waiting for the d tick... The next time, we should all go to that keep and steal the d tick from them.

    PVP players are always toxic, because obvious reasons.
    Also they whine more and most of nerfs happen because of them.
    Profanity filter is a crime against the freedom of speech. Also gags.
