Context: I’m new to tactical FPS games, and this was in Bronze.
I don’t own any skins, so I’m always grabbing skins at the end of rounds. This was early in the match and apparently, I grabbed my teammate’s skin after a round win. He immediately voiced his displeasure the next round, and refused to let it go.
I honestly thought he was joking at first, but he was dead serious. To make matters worse, I survived for a few rounds after and was using his gun the whole time. I had to mute him after a while, but nobody on our team said anything while he was bitching at me.
Is there some unspoken “skin etiquette” I breached? I assume the dude is just insane, but sometimes video game communities have weird rules that aren’t obvious to newcomers.

Even though this comes from a rival game, this applies here as well and any competitive game in general.
