Deletion.
I believe ths page should be deleted. It is sick.--Strider658369398 File:1207534821 Marathon symbol.gif 19:19, October 4, 2009 (UTC)
- It describes a common in-game behavior in Halo online multiplayer. Furthermore, I don't see any homophobic statements or references to homosexuality anywhere in the article. And while the act may be sick, the article itself is not.
- The "sickness" of a topic does not determine or affect its notability. We can't avoid writing an article about something just because some people may find it "sick". Wikipedia, the website upon which this and other wikis are based, doesn't just ignore sick topics. (And I'll happily link you to some articles if you feel like arguing that point.)

- Strider, how is it homophobic? Homophobia is unreasoning fear of or antipathy toward homosexuals and homosexuality. If anything, it's more necrophilic than it is homophobic. Teabagging is a form of taunting on FPS multiplayer matches. I've also seen players shoot dead bodies, melee them, and rapidly weapon-switch while teabagging (I don't want to really explain that reference here) or any combination of the actions listed. We need to accept the fact that it is a normal occurence online, and not pretend it's not part of the Halo gaming culture merely because it makes some people uncomfortable. And to the people that cannot seem to stand it, I say: so what. Teabagging is merely symbolic, there is no real sexual activity in the act. It helps transfer the idea that a player got owned or raped by another player. True, it is not good sportsmanship to teabag, but since the concept exists, we can't deny that it happens.

Corpse Humping?
- Why is the article called Corpse Humping? Everyone knows it as tea-bagging. I know tea-bagging is mentioned as the commonly known title earily on in the article but still. Why not make the page called Tea-bagging and make a note that it has also been called Corpse Humping Brownie Was Here File: Legendary.jpg|14px]] 17:42, April 21, 2010 (UTC)
