There's currently an unassigned glitch in TF2 for griefing.

Pick up the intel on a CTF map, type "jointeam unassigned" in console. Congrats, you are now a spectator with the intelligence!

Feel free to place yourself somewhere just out of reach behind a noclip line so your team valiantly attempts to rocket jump or sticky jump to it, or hide in plain sight slowly rotating and then suddenly fly up into the air as someone gets close. Of course overtime will never end like this so with 2 people you can doom a server to 2fort forever.

Alternatively you can spectate people, and if you do this in first person it will look like the person you're spectating has the intelligence so his team will all shout at him.

And lastly if you just want to end 2fort really fast, grab the intel, hit the bind very quickly, then fly over to your team's capture point and press l next to it so you drop the intelligence in a very easy to capture point for your team.

Doing this right the hell now.

That unassigned glitch just made my afternoon. I had an entire pack of Pyros chasing me around the map shouting over voice chat at each other trying to figure out what was going on.

The best thing to do is get the intel and find a Spy who is serious and thinks he is CAL. Just spectate him with it, anytime he cloaks the intel gives him away.

They go insane with rage, I almost had a guy crying because of the intel giving him away and costing him kills.

I just tried the intel thing. Me and a friend are gonna be in different teams and controlling both intels so neither team would win. Didn't have too many angry responses yet so far though. Just scouts trying to catch me and an admin kicking me out.

Gonna try the intel at original location then flying away at last second, sounds hilarious.

ISS lasted something silly like 2 weeks before crumbling to goonfleet, no idea what happened to all the 'investors' when the alliance suddenly disappeared. God I loved playing EVE.

Er, ISS were around for a long time, much more than two weeks. I bought ISSO stock when it was first being issued, made something like 200% roughly on the initial investment. When they folded I think part of the liquidation assets were sold to some third party, who stockholders could exchange stock for to get a limited return, which went on for some time too.

Also as to why people put their money in banks, at a certain point you just hit a hard limit on how much time you're willing to spend to make isk(Crazy Jita margin traders excluded). There are much better investments than eve-bank but it's better than just letting the isk sit around in the wallet, and it's far more trustworthy than the previous bank, the fact that they survived this top-level defection can attest to it.

I played as the sentry-gun-intel for a while, confusing engies and scouts galore. They'd all crowd around the sentry not understanding why it had its own floating flag. Eventually, someone would blow up the gun and I'd hit space to teleport away in search of a new SG to haunt. Good times :)

In a post-apocalyptic setting, one of the best things you can do is not only roleplay, but roleplay as a halfling rogue seeking gold and riches.

Some people do not like it.

I was jailed in-game and then pardoned by the admins, but I was wanted in the apartment complex so I couldn't go back. After posting the log in the HellMOO thread, others joined in, and for hours I got messages like this:

From your wristpad: Torn pages, 'YOU SENT OTHER PEOPLE HERE. NOW WEVE GOT SOME BITCH WHOS CALLING ME A 35 YEAR OLD TRUCKER.'

There are simply too many options. You should give it a try.

I think my favorite instance of personal griefing was in Planetside, but honestly it was more about revenge.

My small clan and I (about 4 people) were asking for a pickup in our ANT to help out refueling another base from a clan Galaxy. Their response was to laugh at and land on us, causing us to explode and killing my whole group.

What's that you say? That's being griefed, not griefing? Well, it's what came next that changes that.

The first thing I do upon respawning in our friendly base is to haul rear end with the speed module, straight to the gun turret on the tower. Just as their whole clan packs in to the Galaxy and starts to take off, I unload into it. By the time they realize what's happening, they fire a few stray shots and someone types WE'RE DEAD and they all begin to haphazardly eject right before the plane explodes, killing every single one of them, including the guys trying to air drop a vehicle out of the back.

Moments later I spawn in a Delieverer, get my team onboard and book it before they can escalate the situation.

-

Well that and we tried (sadly, with too few a numbers to successfully finish the job) to do one thing near the end of Planetside's life: Making the day that Neutral (Aka nobody) won. You see, bases that did not have power would become neutral, and there was always a small percentage of them in the game. Our objective was to go around blowing all the reactors we could with no plans of actual conquest for one entire day, in order to make all the factions loose.

If we had maybe 10 more people we could have done it, as it stands we only knocked out a continent or two.

I said ISS lasted like 2 weeks after goonfleet found out they were paying off LV to not attack them. ISS had to learn the hard way that you can't be a truly neutral entity in 0.0 space.


So anyway that TF2 glitch, got insta-banned from the first server I tried it on. The next two had protections and just warned me not to attempt it again. And I had no idea people play on 24/7 2fort servers just to lockdown the intel room with sentry guns, but took me like 10 minutes on each server. :argh:

e: Ok this is loving hilarious. I had two pyros trying to chase the intel floating, every time they got near I shot up and cannonballed back down. I had them trying to predict where I'd land.

I tried out the tf2 glitch myself with some pretty good results, although it took me a while to find a server where it worked and where I could get to the intel. Once I got it I did the glitch and started appearing in random places and moving around a bit but no one was saying anything for a full 5 minutes or so. I started following a pyro and he was the first to finally mention me in chat, which was immediately followed by 5 others saying "I thought it was just me" and "You see it too?" and etc. I then proceeded to follow people from the team's intel I had, and a lot of them thought it was funny for a while; one guy even said I was his favorite intel.

Having an accomplice makes it 10 times better, especially if it's on a server with no capture or time limit. Luckily for us they thought it was the admins, and since we changed our names to " " noone would know who it was anyway.











Another awesome thing you can do is land where the intel normally is, and then jump right as the scout or whoever tries and picks you up. As soon as theyve moved off the table, go back to where you originally were. Say that you're some sort of advanced defense mechanism of the intel and a code must be entered to stop you from moving.

I'm assuming he made a lovely DMPC Bard that sang Never Gonna Give You Up or something equally stupid. Besides, there's already two threads in Trad Games Discussion for roleplaying stories; why move them out to here? Griefing your friends is really subpar and dickish in the bad way compared to random people in video games.

As far as contributing, I've found that it's infinitely more satisfying in Worms 2 for the 360 to join team games then waste all your Girders and Bridge Kits creating thick barriers around your ally and claiming to be playing the "impenetrable fortress maneuver" than to do the old prod-off-the-edge poo poo.
