Taunted 50 gang members

How to unlock the Trash Talker achievement in Saints Row 2 - Definitive Guide

If you are having trouble finding gang members (if you are near the end of the story missions) you can also taunt pimps in the Barrio district. A really boring but effective method is to find a pimp sitting down in a chair and just taunt him repeatedly. It seems to give credit for each taunt since the pimp will not agro if he is seated. There is an outdoor patio in Ezpata where I found 1-3 pimps sitting outside enjoying a drink and ignoring my taunts.

Thank you for this. Works great when you've already finished the game.

I've also finished the game and was concerned I wouldn't have a good chance to get this. This solution worked great. And I can confirm that if the pimp is sitting down, he will not react if you taunt him. That is important, since before I found the ones sitting down, I taunted some that were standing on the sidewalk. Let's just say it'll take a bit longer to get to the 50 taunts if you do it that way. ;-)

The pimps seem to spawn in groups in various neighborhoods in the Barrio District. I ended up finding them in the Southern Cross neighborhood. There is a Freckle Bitch's in the Cecil Park Neighborhood; I went due east from there, and just past the sculpture of the two hands (forming a goalpost with the index fingers and thumbs) it changes to Southern Cross and you should see a strip mall. One of the shops is called "El Bocadillo" with three or four outdoor tables and lots of people sitting at them. There were at least four or five pimps when I was there, and two at the same table. It only took a minute, if that. However, a little later when I returned there were just normal NPCs. If you don't see pimps at the tables, drive around the Barrio District (including Ezpata) looking for them elsewhere (look for other outdoor patios), and come back later.

For this achievement find a group of gang members, at least three of them, two will do but the more the merrier and quicker. Taunt them by pressing left on the d-pad and then run around them until you are no longer wanted by them, I mean when there's no gang symbol on your wanted bar. Keep repeating until you get the achievement, if you do this, one taunt will net you three taunts toward the achievement depending on the number of gang members on the group. They will not shoot at you at unless you shoot so just run around for like 5 seconds until the wanted level drops. If you taunt while being wanted by the gang it will not count towards the achievement.

I did it at the very start of the game before I went to the first mission marker. Not two blocks away from there was a female SoS member playing some drums. I just spammed the taunt, she would throw up her dukes, then start to walk way, then throw up her dukes, then start to walk away, etc. Each time she threw up her dukes, I would get credited for a taunt. This is a great place to get nutshots, as well (at least at this early stage. may not be the case later in the game). Whenever I'd get a gang wanted level of 1 or 2 skulls, they would drive straight to me. I didn't even have to leave the general area. :)

A good solution, but taunting seated pimps is much faster.

this achievement is for taunting 50 gang members, the best way to do this is to go to your crib and taunt one of your members 50 times. just push left on the d-pad then move the left stick in any direction to stop the taunt early, this should only take you 3 minuets.

I have been it is just staying at 26, even when taunting gang members while in battle, it's like the only ones it will work for are ones on the side of the street but I've eliminated everyone

it doesn't work with your own gang mates. I did the other solution with about 7 Ronin, got it in like 2 mins.

I don't recall where I read this but what you have to do is recruit then dismiss then taunt and repeat until there is a red circle when you aim a weapon at your gang members. At this point just taunt until you get the achievement.

This works. I start counting after I did it a few times. I counted untill 39, so I knew that I have did it 11 times before I started counting.
Good solution, it works.

Yep, definitely works. I had no rival gangs left. Just follow these steps:
1) recruit your guys,
2) dismiss them,
3) taunt them, then taunt them again (pressing left on d-pad then forward or any direction on the left stick to get it over with quicker), until the green X crosshair turns into a red O,
4) keep doing that with anybody who still shows up as a green X.
5) you might need to switch to another crib to get enough gangstas.

This definitely still works and I did it on the XB1 and I performed this in the "Saint's Row Mega Condo" in the Saint's Row District. Just follow what transmothra said to do and it works.

To taunt a gang member, walk up to them and set your reticule on them. Then, hit to perform a taunt. You will know you've done it correctly when your gang notoriety goes up slightly and they attack you.

The easiest way to get this is to taunt your own gang members. If you equip your pistols so your crosshair shows, look at a gang member. You'll notice that a green X appears. Taunt him until it turns into a red crosshair. From then on out, every taunt counts towards your achievement. The fastest way to do it is to taunt, move your joystick slightly during the taunt to stop the motion, taunt again, move your stick slightly again, and so on. This takes about 3 minutes for the achievement.

You do not need to taunt 50 different people, just perform 50 taunts. You can check your progress by going to the Pause Menu and selecting 'Info' > 'Diversions' > 'Stunts' > 'Combat Tricks' > click 'Taunting'.
