A no-bullshit goon TTT server is a great idea. Maybe we could get that kick-a-pubby script from that one TF2 server? Basically it lets whitelists goons to use the kick function for use if an idiot child joins the server. And please, don't put 67th way, rooftops and that one minecraft map into rotation. I'm working on a TTT map based on the Spy vs Spy videogame if you want that for the server.

Speaking of TTT, I was playing on a chill server once (as in no RDM whiners) and got picked as Traitor. I spent most of the round just wandering around, looking for anyone alone. Then a traitor killed someone, pinned his victim to a wall right out in the open, and then was subsequently killed himself. Then I had a good idea. I decided to hold an impromptu memorial service for the victim killed. I proclaimed the existence of the service over my mic, and a lot of people came to pay their respects, or probably just curious about how ridiculous it was. I gave a heartfelt eulogy for a couple of minutes as I watched more and more people coming to see what was going on, and I didn't even pause in my eulogy as I opened up my menu and bought a jihad bomb, primed it, and ran into the crowd of 10+ people who had gathered. Traitors won.  The best part was, no one got mad over it, not even my other terrorist buddy who got killed in the blast too. The dead-voice-chat was filled with laughs and cries of "I FUCKIN KNEW IT". Really wish I'd saved that server.

Because I'm a massive failure of a human being I wasn't able to record this conversation, but what came next pretty much eclipsed it.

Traitor rooms at least can be defused by a couple people camping by them and immediately shooting anyone who opens it, but traitor detectors completely ruin the game's dynamic. I've been on a server where admins ruled with an iron fist and made everyone go to the traitor detector at the beginning of the game, and whoever they noticed wasn't there was declared KOS. This server had like 30 people on it too, many of which seemed to be regulars by their tags.  Servers where traitor detectors are demanded to be used are leaps and bounds worse than the strict "no rdm" ones.

You can do stuff like toss a grenade into the (usually) crapped tester room, or set c4 outside it. Most good maps either limit the number of times it can be used or make it possible to destroy it. 67th way has a button the traitor can use to flood the only hallway to the tester room to drown people trying to get to it.

Having spent time playing TTT in a non-griefing capacity, I'd say some of the best ways to get people mad are false accusations, not responding to "alive checks" until long after people assumed you were dead, and dropping grenades at people to make them think you're throwing one at them, which gets even funnier when it was something harmless like a smoke grenade or a discombobulator (physics grenade) in an empty hallway. I didn't have much trouble with finding good servers because at the time I just found one or two "good" servers and stuck with them. The worst those servers ever did was punish "unjustifiable RDM", nobody (with the exception of that guy) ever got really mad though, unless you killed them on their traitor round.A Fancy 400 lbs posted:I've tried two servers so far, both of them had people who I'm assuming from their voices were middle school aged boys whining about RDMing incessantly over voice chat.

The general pool of players for TTT has gone even further down the toilet now that people like Seannaners and UberhaxorNova started doing videos for it, now you have all their 11-13 year-old viewers playing it. I remember going onto a server with some friends that had something crazy like 50 player slots. It had all those dumb donater gimmicks like custom trails and skins, which seem pretty counterproductive to the gamemode . It also used a lot of normal map loadouts and setups so almost everyone was unarmed. The weirdest part was that the server was actually populated.

They're also generally bad at the game so if you become a traitor odds are you'll destroy them easily, which gives you plenty of opportunity to smugly gloat without breaking any of their precious rules. "Both of my traitor allies died at the start of the match and I still managed to kill all 11 of you with just a desert eagle and the rifle.  "I've also seen players (oftentimes highschoolers from the sounds of their voices) get REALLY mad whenever someone with an obvious brony name/avatar/spray joins, so doing that while griefing may help. Fakedit: The Desert Eagle is a great weapon and I would suggest finding one ASAP whenever possible. Its almost as accurate as an unscoped rifle and kills with a single headshot. Plinking away at players across the map only to nail one of them in the head is almost as great as the resulting shock and outrage .

Sprays are always a good tool for griefing. Really obnoxious brony/furry stuff will make people mad, get some weird cutesy anime spray and people will stop to stare at it (Griefing TTT yesterday there was someone with some cutesy anime spray that people kept stopping to look at, making for super easy headshots) all the time, use an edgy political spray and so on. Though I've had people rage at me in TF2 for having this as a spray too so chances are you'll get someone, somewhere mad for using any spray at all.

Why not just boobs if you want to make stupid teenagers stand still and stare?  e: One of my friends back in the WON days taught med school. He played CS and used to dig up really graphic depictions of medical procedures and use them as his spray. He'd stand near them and whenever people stopped to stare, he would begin to explain in very gruesome detail what was happening in the image. More than one person flipped their poo poo in disgust and rage. Although there was one time when rather than get upset, people asked questions and it turned into an online class.

Machai posted:So wait...wouldn't that turn the whole game into an elaborate RNG machine where all you do is load in and instantly determine who was randomly assigned as a traitor before hunting them downe? That seems absolutely pointless, like playing CTF and ruling that the Red-team must bring their flag to the Blue base at the beginning of the game. I guess they got their jollies in having a manhunt for the couple of guys who didn't go to get tested, but I didn't stick around more than one round. It's sad because TTT has the potential to be a really fun and deep gamemode, but it's hindered by people who want to "balance" it, IE make it so they die less. That video someone posted a few pages back of killing everyone every round then just dancing in circles and spamming music until time runs out was glorious after dealing with so many power-hungry idiots in the gamemode. AXE COP posted:The good thing about TTT's playerbase being so terrible is that it's really easy to find griefable targets.

To inspire extra rage from them, ignore their shrieking questions about why you keep killing them, and actually make a point to keep talking to someone else so they know they're being ignored. It's a simple tactic, but bronies thrive on attention and getting denied that + play time will often send them into a frothing, awe-inspiring rage. Tsurupettan posted:Why not just boobs if you want to make stupid teenagers stand still and stare? I had a boob spray in tf2 to try and pull that "get someone to stare at spray, backstab" tactic. I was playing on 2fort (playing 2fort is self-griefing, let no one tell you otherwise) and had been hounding this one dumb Heavy in particular the entire round, even opting to just wait outside his team's fort for him to stroll right out the front door oblivious every time. He stopped coming for a bit, so I went into the base to find him staring at the boob spray I did earlier. I disguised as him and kept spamming vocal commands until he turned, looked at me, then started spinning up. Circled round him for a backstab. Dumb heavies are the best part of tf2 nowadays, because you just know they feel impervious playing as that class. Lt. Dans Legs fucked around with this message at 03:01 on Apr 29, 2013 |

Spray out some awesome tits in a high traffic area and find a place to set up my mg42 on it's bipod. Guys would come along and stop to stare, I'd gun them down. After a few kills they'd start trying to weed me out, one guy in particular tried blindly banking grenades around the corner. Once those exploded he must've figured I'd been scared off because he ran around the corner and stopped the stare at the spray some more.

Sometimes you don't even have to do anything, the name is enough. To clarify this, what valve removed was the setinfo console command that the source engine had, which allowed you to spoof your name while in-game. It didn't actually change your steam display name, and it would reset at the end of a map, but as far as the server was concerned that was your name. People were using it to be basically un-bannable because a)they could change their name faster than an admin could access banning tools because they could use a randomized script and b)for some reason, setinfo didn't properly follow the "no name collisions" rule and you could name yourself the same as other people on the server, making it impossible for standard admin controls to tell which was which. You can still change your actual steam display name by going into the settings menu in the overlay, so unless you need to change your name more than once a second (or hide your names from your friends list) it doesn't really change anything. e: vvv You can't do it with setinfo, but at the point that you're hacking you can probably hack it to send spoofed IDs.

I've found a way to amuse myself on TTT whilst reading through revision notes. Hide and seek! Find a map with a decent number of hiding places, vents seem to be ideal and wait till you are picked as a traitor. Just amble around arousing no suspicion until you are the last survivor on your team then head to your hiding spot of choice. Proceed to read revision notes whilst jiggling the mouse every 30 seconds or so to avoid being moved to spectator and listen as the surviving innocents go mental trying to find you/start accusing and murdering each other. Surprisingly effective so far, especially if you manage to pay enough attention to kill anyone who stumbles across your hiding spot before they can reveal your position.
