Opponent's taunt-time is TOO LONG
Hi, team and players. The issue is, after you've got vanquished by an opponent, you'll be forced to face it for 4-5 seconds plus 1 extra second of nothing before the "Respawn Now" message appears. Re...

I find them quite fun if you're in a good-natured, evenly matched lobby, but they can feel insulting if you're being stomped or targeted & in those kind of games, I've known people leave the game because that's the final straw. Because players can sometimes get offended (or even abusive) if you taunt, I rarely use then myself when I vanquish someone & mainly use them (still) as a way of saying hello or thanks.
I do agree that you should be able to cancel the gesture in some way!!ADDED: Though I find it funny seeing the person who killed you being vanquished because they taunted! 😂
Bullies suck in real life and in-game. Many people use taunts to bully others and those people should be ashamed.
I wish taunts were completely removed because more times than not, people who use them INTEND to make others mad.
Im sitting here like, dang, little person... what kind of no-life loser tries to make kids rage quit a game by targeting them and then taunting?
Games didn’t used to be like this... it’s LAME these days. If my opinion isn’t the popular one, I’m okay with it.
@spIash_damage I don't think taunting is bullying. Taunts are in plenty of games. Some of them are just dance moves. Bullying is relentless harassment or racism or something like excluding someone from something. Nasty things like that is bullying. Taunting in a children's game is certainly not a form of bullying. Apart from skins and hats, taunts are the only real worth while thing you can get from chests. You get to see your character perform some silly dance or gesture. I have yet to see a player target another player, taunt and cause the other guy to quit. If voicechat is involved sure maybe the person is being verbally harassed or something idk. The taunt would be the last straw. Taunts alone should mean nothing. "Many people use taunts to bully others".. I have seriously never met a single bully in the gw series. I do not approve of bullying :o
Just saying there is usually more to the story of someone leaving than a taunt. Taunting is there to be used, its all fun and games. yeah again i dont support bullying just saying taunting alone cant rly be bullying.

- @chogath_player Don't tell me you never saw people pursuing new players and killing them over and over just to mock them after. But okay, like u said, taunts are there to be used even if you're obsessed to rage inexperienced kids. I still will called it bully.
We just don't want to watch the opponent for too long, that's it.- @SergeSim I'm in gamechat. I don't usually talk but Id know if someone is being a douche. You can't really tell if its harrasment or just banter between mates if they arent in voice chat.
I also wouldnt mind skipping the whole watching opponent thing I didnt say I disagreed :o@chogath_player I mean - if you taunt people you don’t know... it’s the LITERAL definition of the word:
I taunt only when someone is targeting me and taunting me first or when I frag @dwooten77 ... that is the only time. Really.
EDIT: to clarify, I think light-hearted taunting is FUN.., but how often do you play against people you like? Taunting is usually bullying. Period. If anyone reading this taunts in a fun-loving manner, by all means, no offense intended.
