Uncalled for Talk Against a Kid

So the other day I'm playing in Ranked & we have a kid as playing as Crypto. They sounded really young. Like younger than 8. May have been like 5! I rolled my eyes as I knew this kid wouldn't be able to do much. For example when I asked them to scan a survery beacon via textchat, they threw it out, but just flew it around smh. But nonetheless I ran with it. Our other tm was playing Loba & had mic, but never saida word.

So we make it to Final 4. The ring is near Countdown & Landslide. Since I have a sniper we all go up to the tower. There was a team we had exchanged fire with earlier coming out of Landslide so we were shooting at them. Crypto was not in the withus but below. We got blindsided by a team that took the zipline up & killed us.

As soon as we died Loba player starts cussing at the kid who's just standing there as they weren't seen. Which was totally uncalled for. I don't like playing with kids but I would never use that type of language towards one. There's a difference between using words around kids & towards them. I use textchat to tell dude not to talk to the kid like that & to chill out. He cusses more at the kid & me telling me not to tell him to chill then leaves before his timer runs out.

Kid is still just standing there with Crypto then they quit & we're eliminated. They probably didn't like the way they were being talked to & decided to stop playing or an adult took them out the game. I reported dude cuz that was not ok & no onne should be cussinng at kids especially if it's not their fault that they died! I hope he gets suspended or soft banned!

  • @Lord_Scorpion34 have to wonder at the child's parents parenting skills. Allowing a situation to develop where unfettered access to the child by strangers (toxic or otherwise) in a game, is imo tantamount to dropping the child off at a playground and driving away, neglect at best. That's disgraceful.

    @OldTreeCreeper Sounds like the kid was too young to play period. If the parent entered the kids info properly they wouldn't be able to. I blame the parents.
