Have you ever experienced the pure bliss that is teabagging someone in an online multiplayer video game?

I'll give Sully that he's pretty smooth for his age.
He's a Smooth Criminal.
I never teabag first, but every once in a while if someone really tilts me and has teabagged me first I'll do it to tilt them back.
I'm working on myself.

It's corny. I usually never taunt opponents in any way. I only retaliatory taunt if they taunt first and I end up winning.
Never done it, and never understood the appeal of it.
The fact it also is inherently homophobic on top of the juvenile nature of it makes it a toxic reaffirmation of the bigoted nature of online gaming spaces.
Good job, teabaggers, making us gross gays feel uncomfortable and unwelcome. Insert thumbs up emoji.

This feels like the most risque post I've seen on Era in some time.
I'm not sure whether to applaud the courage to post it...or thumb my nose that its beneath me and move on.
In truth, my skill level is just not good enough in any multiplayer game to back up that kind of act. I would get my comeuppance immediately - threefold. LoL.

I didn't like a lot of things with Uncharted 4's multiplayer, but I did the exact same thing in front of people (with Sully of course) while my AI dude choked people out from behind and that was pretty damn fun.
I tried it, I don't get anything about it and when someone does it to me, I'm like "sure, gfi (beats him later)"
In fighting games, getting a PERFECT is way more rewarding IMO. And when people teabag me in fighting games 98% of the time, I will do a comeback and beat them up. lol
In Shooters if they teabag me, I don't care as long as I win the match, which in the end is what matters.

No, I'm 38.
I do taunt a lot but it is a necessity as a Dan main.
Players do tbag a lot in Mortal Kombat 11, I guess because there arent any proper taunts.

Not as much as I used to when I was younger. Very rarely.
To me the funniest will be always taunting your opponents after killing them in Uncharted 2. That shit never got old.

Always, at least in Overwatch. It's a fantastic teaching tool. I teabag if:
-I'm a support and you're a flanker and I kill you.
-You trickle in alone and feed.
-You play Brig and just w.
-You play Genji and I kill you.
People need to be shown that some things are just unacceptable, like playing Genji in 2020, especially without nano.

I always thought it was lame. Press Ctrl/C over a corpse a a few times putting yourself in harms way. Well done.
Depends upon who you're playing with, among a group of friends it can be funny to punk each other. When random strangers it just invites a toxic atmosphere.
No. It's one of the most childish things you can do, especially now in 2020 after it's been played out to death.
I only tea bag those truly deserving of a tea bag. Usually the person spewing ignorant racial slurs because they're behind a veil of anonymity, the person with the extremely racist / edgy handle or clan tag, that one person talking shit when they have no reason to be, and of course anyone that tea bags you first. Anyone falling into that category will get the ole double dip and drag teabag. I might be old but my years of CS 1.5 and 1.6 have taught me a thing or two about Pwning newbs (not sure if people still say that).
Edit: Also, sometimes teabags are just for fun. Doesn't always have to be serious.

I'm not someone who'll go out of their way to do it to another player, but I have done it back to someone if they've done it to me. I've always just found it silly but amusing seeing other people do it (either to me or other players), so it's never really bothered me.
And I get that the origins of teabagging were possibly once homophobic in nature (in truth, I don't know where it came from, so I'm guessing), but it seems nowadays like something that has evolved more into just shoving your backside into someone's face, which is a fairly universal gesture of disrespect regardless of gender or sexual orientation? I don't know, but that's how I feel it's perceived in recent times?
But what does amuse me is how upset people get by it (and I'm not singling anyone out here, just using your quote as an example), equating it to sexual assault (which is a horrific act which I am in no way belittling, condoning, or endorsing). We're playing games where the idea is to either kill or beat the opposition to a pulp - often in incredibly brutal, violent and gruesome ways - and this causes no issue, but the thought of sticking my arse in the face of your corpse causes upset? It's always seemed somewhat contradictory to me...
I guess I just interpret it as a stupid and humorous (in a juvenile way) kind of showboating by players in a game.
I was under the impression that teabagging was meant to evoke sticking male genitalia in the mouth of another, and top Google results appear to concur.
Nah, teabagging seems like the kinda thing rapists and pedophiles would do IRL on a daily basis.
