You can say your argument is valid all you want but dancing after achieving a point (kill) is a celebration not a taunt

Edited by H0RSE: 8/6/2014 7:35:37 AMIt wasn't just dancing, it was dancing over a corpse....the corpse of the player the dancing player just killed... it would be like scoring a touchdown, and then doing a celebratory dance in the face of the opponent that was covering you - you would be penalized for that...you have no argument here - it's either taunting or excessive celebration, either one is considered unsportsmanlike conduct, by the definition of the term. But even if you were to completely disregard the whole unsportsmanlike conduct thing, I still see those actions as childish and disrespectful, which still gets you on my avoid player list.

You think what we teabag is a corpse? It is not a corpse. If that is a corpse then you need to stop killing thousands of people/aliens. It is a game, treat it as such. Also, what lacks in the real sports that lacks here. I'll give you a hint, verbal communication. Yes, you can generally talk with your team, but usually cannot hear your opponents. NFL players taunt, tease, bash the other team to get on there nerves, to get them riled up. We can't do that, so we switch it to non-verbal communication. If tea-bagging was so disrespectful, why was it intentionally put in Halo 4? I mean, developers are disagreeing with you. Is it disrespectful to dance over a Fallen Captain's corpse? Why is it considered 'excessive celebration" in one circumstance, if not the other. In fact, I would consider it excessive celebration when doing it to the Captain, because he is easier to take down, there fore less effort went into equally celebrating.

[quote]If tea-bagging was so disrespectful, why was it intentionally put in Halo 4? [/quote] Because often times in competitive sports/games, acts that could be deemed disrespectful, offensive, or whatnot, such as taunting, teabagging, shit talking, etc. are written up as "just part of the game," regardless if they are still disrespectful in nature. Many have this misconstrued concept that competition is somehow exempt from this - that what would normally be deemed inappropriate, doesn't apply to competitive gaming, and because of this, many have just accepted this idea as fact.

I believe the reason they kept it in game was because of the millions I player hate they would have gotten if they lost their tbag button

Well you better go on my xbox account and avoid me now so you won't have to worry about it then.

I only saw the option to block, not avoid player. I don't know if it's the same thing, but it's done nonetheless.
