I only ever did the punching thing over items one time. It was when replicators first came into the game. We landed in an area with a bunch of materials. I grabbed them, made a weapon, an Epic attachment, and a Legendary attachment for it. I was able to grab the gun, but the second the attachments were done being made, my teammate grabbed them (this was before they put in that little grace period, where only you can pick up the stuff you crafted).
Needless to say, that frustrated me. One, because it was over 100 materials (that's not easy to get back unless you go to another crafting area on the map). And two, if they wanted that stuff, they easily could have grabbed materials and made them. They stole my stuff, and not only was I out the materials to make it, I was out the attachments as well.
So, while my reaction may have not been the best, I did punch them multiple times. I also typed in chat that they took my stuff and I wanted it back. And I told them I wasn't going anywhere, until they did so. They eventually did give them back after two minutes or so.
Now, could what I did be considered "toxic" behavior? Perhaps. Could I have handled the situation better? Perhaps. But I would argue it was also toxic of them to steal my stuff that I made, when they literally could have spent 30 seconds grabbing materials and making it for themselves.
All in all, though, thankfully they added that feature where for the first few seconds only you can pick up the stuff you've crafted. So, nothing like that ever happened to me since. But, yeah, I was very irritated at the time.

Yeah, I agree. I don't know if they do that because I'm not picking my load out fast enough or if they just like being annoying, but it sucks. Especially on a map like artillery, where they can actually knock you off the platform, because then I have to spend extra time going around it to get to where I need to go when the match starts.
Had one the other day. He was mad because I looted the deathbox of someone I hit for almost 200, whom he shot once and got the kill for. Anyway, it was at Harvester, so I went to the lava in the middle and threw all my stuff into the lava and left the game. Go get the stuff now, b****.

it never happens to me so maybe its you?
maybe stop looting a teammate death box.?
don't loot stuff infront of a person as he opened a box or something.
if your lifeline and you get punched it meens someone pinged over a Hundred times he needs life / (your heal bot) PAY ATENTION!.
turn off your open MIC it pisses people off.. they start punching..
stop pinging everything and everyone.
well you can fill in the rest..
- hayhor5 years agoHero@B3ntar I've been punched by people randomly not even being with them as we loot. I run over to where they are, they start punching. Even had a guy one time where our 3rd pinged an item, I ping I need it and as I go to get it the other guy comes over and punches me for picking it up. I say into the mic I dibs it. He punches me again. I say no problem it is yours, good luck winning as a duo and leave.
- Lord_Scorpion345 years agoLegend@hayhor Still remember the Ranked match with a long time Apex friend where we was in the top 4 & I'm lining up a shot on the waterfall cliff by Map Room. He punches me off the cliff & I die. I'm text chat why. Then he jumps off eliminating us. I have not played with them since lol.
- 5 years ago@CCbathwater People gatekeep deathboxes? I don't care if I killed someone or my teammate did, they can loot with me or vice-versa. As long as you don't hoard and share if someone asks something.
