When he rezzed he started giving me poo poo for not helping him and used insults and such. What I noticed is that he used bandages to heal himself mostly and he pretty much used them after each fight. I had some linen bandages left over from leveling first aid so after each fight I would go up to him and spam linen bandages on him and when I started bandaging I would back away to stop and he would only be healed for like a fraction of the little amount linen bandages would heal anyways. Were you even grouped with the guy? Was this just some random person who you happened to be near? This is why I don't play that game anymore. Edited with the quote, for new page. This has to have been the dozenth time this has happened to me.

I remember griefing on Counter Strike. Teaming up with a friend on the other team and killing all players. People also got really really mad when we were the last ones living and we decided to chat instead of play. Very funny poo poo!

The only griefing I've ever done in CS was completely unintentional. I was playing on a team with a few friends in an internet cafe and we all left for what we thought would be a minute to grab food. That minute ended up taking the better part of a quarter hour and we came back to the other team chatting furiously at us for "Not Playing Right" or in fact, not really playing at all...

Once the round is over, you can spy crab, build dispensers everywhere, etc. Last time I did this, my friend and I both went engi and build a little dispenser fort, with teleporters and stuff. Then we danced and taunted as the rest of the server just started screaming at us.

The best part about Counter-Strike: Source was that it allowed for animated .gifs to be converted into sprays. Animated shock sprays became big around the same time 2girls1cup was "discovered". You can fill in the rest.

furry drum circle posted:Diablo 2: Diablo 2 brings back so many memories. My brother and I did a few long term scams. We would befriend people on battle.net, most likely 13 year old kids I like to believe. After a few hours of playing with them, he'd ask them to stay in a pass worded game and watch our items for us while we switched to our mules. This was to build up a level of trust. We'd drop unique items and runes, but nothing that we were worried about losing. Eventually, came the day where they would ask one of us to stay in the game while they switched to their mule. We'd grab the best items, leave and never speak to them again. Some of these false friendships went on for a month or two, never letting our icy cold hearts melt at the chance of true e-friendship. One kid even whispered to me: "I thought we were friends  "Sometimes my brother and I would just type in random game names and guess the passwords. This actually worked. Some games were called "MULE" or "ABC" and the password was usually "MULE" or "123" or something stupid. We'd join, people would flip out as all their stuff was on the ground, and we'd snatch it up. We'd also be doing Baal runs, and a random person would join and leave. This made us stop whatever we we're doing and do a mad dash back to the rogue camp, or try random way points looking for loot. Whenever we saw a low level character join the game, or someone with the name "mule" we knew that character was probably carried through hell difficulty, and was either abandoned as a mule or made just for that purpose. We got so many items and pissed off so many people doing this. They thought they were crafty, joining and warping to the stony field to drop their stuff. Nope! That poo poo was snatched up. By the way, the writing down their real life names to match accounts is loving genius; I wish I thought of that. Sadly, diablo 3 will have shared inventory I hear

Teamkilling on its own usually isn't very funny, but when you can pass it off as a suicide... A buddy and I were playing the map Spire on Halo:Reach, which features a gigantic tower in the map, where players often roost to snipe. The other team had mostly quit, so our team was way ahead in the score, and the match was playing out in a pretty boring fashion. On the Spire top platform, characters who snipe usually creep on the very edge of the platform to get a wide spectrum of view to catch any errant enemies. You can probably see where this is going. Since the snipers are usually zoomed in, they aren't watching people around or behind them, especially not their own teammates, who may or may not give them a bit of a nudge off the edge, where they fall to their deaths, a suicide (-1 to team score). This may or may not be why I got an angry voice message and note from a guy saying "I just watched the movie, and gently caress YOU!" Maybe the act isn't funny on its own, but the idea of a guy playing through the whole game and thinking that he kept accidentally falling or creeping too close to the edge being suspicious about it, then going back and watching the entire movie, only to come to a dawning realization that it was no accident after all

Back in the very early days of WoW I played on a PvP server with a very active forum. The server was split down the middle, but not into Horde and Alliance so much as into PvPers and Raiders. This was in the days before Battlegrounds (dedicated and regimented PvP instances), when the Arathi Highlands (a relatively low-level area notorious for large-scale PvP battles) was still a deathtrap. Consequently, there was a kind of rivalry between PvPers and serious Raiders (it was a fairly heavy-raiding server too, with a couple of continent first-kills in high-level instances) and a camaraderie across factions between different both kinds of players. PvE guilds would often trade through the neutral auction house(s)? I forget) and dedicated rear end in a top hat PvP guilds like mine would regularly form alliances with their equivalents from the other faction in order to poo poo on the maximum number of lowbies 'in the field.' The best time I ever had playing that horrible, horrible game was when a few (5 or 6) hardcore raiders got involved in some drama within the top Horde guild and grew disillusioned with raiding and were planning to defect to a PvP guild with which my Alliance guild was on good terms at the time. The raiding guild were snobby, fun-hating shitheads who looked down on PvP in general as beneath them and had pissed the defectors off but good. So, knowing that these guys, one of which was the raiding guild's First Officer, were bitter as hell, we cooked up a plan with two other Alliance PvP guilds as well as the guild the raiders were defecting to. The traitors made good with their raiding guild and acted like all was forgiven, until their next Molten Core raid. Knowing that this guild liked to make a big show of their raids by grouping up in a major town before all rolling out to the instance as one big group, the first officer was to tell us when they were on their way. We three guilds had maybe four summoning groups lying in wait in the hills surrounding Blackrock Mountain (a big cluster of instances). As they were on their way from the flight point, we managed to summon a good two-thirds of our three raid groups and jumped on them as they strode through the gates to go raid. Total massacre. As they were corpse-running back we summoned the remainder of our raids and camped them out for a good two hours before they gave up on the raid for that night. They probably could have gotten to the instance if they were just willing to book it straight through the gates, but these guys were 'serious' players, damnit! They had epics coming out of their asses, and we were a rag-tag mob of griefers in craftable blues, many of us not even yet at the level cap, and they were determined to fight back. The best bits were when we decided to back off to see what they'd do. Being made of Alliance PvP guilds, a good 70 out of the 120 were Night Elf Rogues and Hunters, so when they'd collect their corpses and run around AoEing the place like crazy trying to find us hidden in the hills nearby, they'd get Volleyed (a Hunter ranged area-of-effect attack) to death from afar. We also had a small contingent stationed at the graveyard for anybody who was willing to accept resurrection sickness for a chance to hearth. Nobody got out alive. The real beauty of the situation was that, while we were doing this, the First Officer was cleaning out his guild's dedicated bank alt account and managed to swipe a good 6-7k gold (this is when 1k gold sold for US$90). When he was done, he rolled up to the scene with a dozen or so of his new guildies and the other defectors and they /gquit in front of everybody and stood there pointing and laughing with their new guild as the poopsockers got slammed a few last times. Not as intricate a plan, nor as beautifully hateful as the account-sharing revenge story, but gently caress that was a fun night. That level of orchestration almost makes MMOs actually seem worthwhile, looking back on it. Those days of PvP are long gone now, though .

Players put in crafting materials they don't need but other guild members do, potions for raid night and gear to help low level members have an easier time grinding up through the lower areas. Simply put, it's the honor system in action. There are options that can be in place that can limit the amount of stuff taken.

The level of cuntery you would see from the average user in WoW is unbelievable, I have no idea what the reason is but WoW has a thouroughly horrible user base. We used to run pre made groups into the battle grounds. Tank, healer, hybrid, nuker and a stabby character. Battle grounds were a time sink while not chasing gear. A good, well geared 5 man team could dominate the smaller maps. This did not stop some of the foulest and stupidest tirades from pouring out of the mouths of non grouped charcaters directed at our healers. Honestly, if you have never played it can be hard to understand that a character will harass someone for hours, even following them when muted, if they did not become their personal healer in a battleground. Eventually, we decided that the best recourse was to follow these arseholes around in our group watching them die over and over to groups of the enemy, followed by us steamrolling the people who killed them straight afterwards. We used to keep a list, and every time we saw you we would do this. The sheer rage, anger, frustration and threats of personal harm directed at us made this particularly satisfying.

The aim of the game is grief really, The guards can ask the prisoners to do anything, if they refuse you can kill them, prisoners also outnumber guards by a shitton and trying to stop them from running off, getting guns and slaughtering you all is extremely difficult. The problem is that most people play it as a deathmatch, all the guards camp out somewhere and kill any prisoner who doesn't stay away, I've had much more fun just getting the prisoners to follow my every insane command until they manage to organize themselves enough to stab me to death. Try it out at least, I can't really explain how chaotic it gets during an ordinary round.

Cwapface posted:PvP ambushes PvE in WoW This is almost some EVE level coordination poo poo right here. Edit: Fuuuck, new page. Goddammit. Writing story now. So, I play a loving shitton of BattleField: Bad Company 2. Like, I have 400 hours in the game since it launched in March. About the best time I had in this game was when I found a server which banned me for hacking in about the first ten minutes. I like to think I'm a nice guy, so I go on their forums and respectfully request an unban. Eventually, I have to directly email the admin that banned me and we go back and forth for a little while, and then I get this pot o' gold: quote:"First of all let me say I never call anyone a HACK, I just take PB screen shots for PBBANS and let them make that call. This community is comprise of mostly people who are over 50 so we are a little older and slower bunch. I think the rub is that shots that would normally kill other people IE this slower bunch don't kill you and there lies the frustration. I am no slouch at this game I have a almost 1.4 KD ratio but I also could not touch you last night as well. So when I hear all the bitching I ask either the player chane his game style or leave. I watched you on Procon last night for awhile and didn't see anything that warranted a hack I did see you conspire with your clanmate Red Cell when he was on the other side but we as a community are guilty of that as well. So here is your choice tone down you game style or leave. We are a good bunch of people to paly with and most of us have been killing each other for 5 years in BF2, CODWAW, CODMW and now BC2 we have about 80 other non members that paly with us on a weekly basis so the server is always populated. The thing is that 99% of the players are evenly matched, your game style is so above what we play people think your hacking so I hope you can see my point." Yikes. So I lay off for about a week, then come back and it's Nelson Bay Conquest. I load up the medic with the MG3 (High ROF bullet hose), lightweight (run faster) and body armor, and proceed to go on a knifing spree. Nelson Bay is a map with 4 cap points arranged in a square, on winter forest terrain. Visibility in most places is about 30m. It is REALLY easy to cover that behind somebody's back, especially when you can only hear footsteps in the snow from about 5m away. By the time you've heard it and turned around, I've already collected you. Let me diverge here for a second. In BFBC2, when you knife another player, you get to collect their dogtags as a trophy. Some people :sperg: the gently caress out when you knife them. Some people refer to a knife kill as "tagging" or "getting tagged". I was in perfect form today. I must have collected over thirty dogtags that round (my norm is usually 3-7), and anytime someone heard me coming I'd just hold the trigger down on the MG3 and let the bullets turn them into bloody shreds. I also revived every teammate I saw, so not only did the other team have to deal with some winged spectre bearing down on them like an unholy demon with a pocket knife, but my team was actually pushing them back fairly well. All of a sudden I start getting ingame messages from the admin across my screen: quote:TONE IT DOWN, BEACH. THE SHEEP ARE COMPLAINING I ignore it. Fuckit, I'm having waaay too much fun. I get warned a couple more times, and after the last warning, I switch to the Slug Wookie. The Slug Wookie is the recon class dressed in a ghille suit (Wookie) wielding a slug shotgun (Slug). The Recon class also has a motion sensor gadget that you can throw, detecting motion in one-second intervals within a 25m radius. Let's just say it's like having a wallhack. This class gets me banned. A lot. The very first shot I make is on the admin that has been warning me. He's been playing sniper. He's at their base. It was a 140m headshot. With a slug shotgun. At an FOV of 110 degrees, his head is about 2x2 pixels. The shotguns don't have scopes. Banned. Ah, well, that's another one I'm not getting back...

I used to play EVE quite a lot a few years ago and by far the best time I ever had on that life-destroying game was when I joined a griefing/pirating corporation that operated in low security/0.0 (areas where you are allowed to shoot and kill other players with little or no consequence). We had a great time around there, doing the standard griefing stuff like outrageous smack talk, not honouring any ransom ever and other fairly low level stuff. One day though, a member of an alliance that we constantly killed decided to release the real life details of the CEO of our corporation on a public channel and to put it mildly, he wasn't pleased about that. Being a revengeful little bastard, our CEO decided that our new aim was to rip that alliance a new one. Some background: The alliance we would be facing was a relatively small time endavour with about 500 members and didn't own their own space. Instead, they rented space from another, bigger alliance, in this case Foundati0n, a crappy alliance that used to operate in the Great Wildlands. They used to live in the area of space that linked the Great Wildlands with the Drone Regions. Our corporation had at most 20 members, usually less than that logged in, but we had a pretty steady membership and everyone was pretty cool. My roots originally was in the RP scene of EVE and this corporation pretended to RP, mostly to piss off other, more serious RPers as well as the serious business alliances in 0.0. Our plan to destroy that alliance was, in effect, guerilla warfare. We constantly kept cloaked ships in systems where they farmed, we insulted them as much as we could, we infiltrated them again and again, we found out their freighter routes and times and ambushed them and we straight out-fought them when fleet battles occured. During this time we had access to their forums and killboards and could read every delicious thread where they complained about us. Eventually we had gotten their morale so low that one of their officers decided to betray them and after a lot of planning, we managed to steal pretty much every single ship that they owned in 0.0 space as well as shutting down most of their POS (Player Owned Structures, basically player-made stations in space). Reading their tears on their own forums and the reaction on corp-chat when they released they had been betrayed was incredibly gratifying. Although they were almost done for, they still weren't done for, until the GM found out that the leader of that alliance had bought gold illegally to prop up his alliance. After being banned from the game, the alliance cycled through different leaders, each more innefectual than the last and eventually imploded. Pretty much the best time I ever had on EVE.
