I've only ever managed to get a few wins on World Of Tanks or other games by mentioning that I knew game of thrones spoilers and that i'd read them out in the event that i'd die. People would block their allies shots to try to stop me from dying, teamkill, etc etc. After the game is a guaranteed win, I boldly announce something like "Khaleesi gets eaten by her dragons" or "Brandon gets Magical legs". Instant hatemails, death threats, etc. Best part? I've never read the drat books.

A friend of mine's dad just discovered TF2. He sent his dad a few hats, and got him informed on how to play and game etiquette and such, and set up some favorite servers for him to play on so he doesn't have to go search through valve servers and stuff to find people to play with. I erased all of the favorites and replaced them with servers that came up after searching "pony" Now we wait  :Edit: Friend's dad is 59, for reference

That's kind of messed up if he ends up thinking that's what TF2 is and is turned off from it entirely.

Anyways Jace Connors is an animal, one time he was making such a fuss on stream that his mom kicked him out of the house so he started streaming from his car, and when she came down to the garage to yell at him there he drove off in it. Everything he does is such an unreal over the top trainwreck it's unbelievable he isn't a troll. wuat is an animal too, he loving ruins every game he plays for everyone, he doesn't care. We tried to get him to play CS:GO, he got in his car and drove straight to VAC ban town. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jy-jCWaXRzA

Jace Connors is great, it's like all the schadenfreude of Chris-Chan without any of the moral handwringing because he's not autistic, just a huge loser.

For a pretty good while now, it's been possible to set up your own Ultima Online servers or "shards," which can be pretty fun even though it's a huge pain in the rear end to get it working(or at least, it was when I was involved with one, may be we were just retarded). Despite its ancient engine, there's an incredible lot of things that can be done just with the built-in interface if you're an admin. You can, for instance, spawn a dragon, and with a couple of commands sprite-swap it with a squirrel. You can make terrible cursed items. You can make invisible walls. You can take a perfectly ordinary squirrel and buff its stats into the stratosphere so it's more dangerous than any dragon ever would be. But really, that's all pretty pedestrian stuff, even if funny sometimes. No, the real fun in being an admin is that you can switch on perfect invisibility and stalk around, watching over everyone and peeking in on what they're doing. During slow periods, when I wasn't doing any sort of actual upkeep(packing customized loot into dungeons, setting up little quest chains with their own clues, adjusting spawns, etc.) I'd switch on my admin-invisibility and use the Teleport To command to hop around between everyone currently online and see what was going on, whether everything was working as it should, whether someone needed a few custom spawns to liven up their day, maybe an NPC-granted quest or task for some variety, so forth. I wasn't expecting, however, to find one player having invited another aboard his FABULOUS SHIP and pitifully attempting to e-score while sailing her across the romantic seas. Now, as someone's mentioned earlier, ships in UO are steered by way of yelling out commands. TURN. FORWARD. BACK. STOP. Etc. As it turns out, the ship doesn't care WHO aboard it is yelling commands, and even if your admin yelling is invisible to other people(his dialogue also being invisible), it's not invisible to the ship. So I spent a good ten minutes getting a laugh out of constantly disrupting his terrible roleplaying and attempts at scoring some cybersex by repeatedly steering his ship in circles, into sea monsters, up to hostile shorelines full of monsters with ranged attacks and so on while he frantically tried to regain control of his ship and yelled at it to get back on course, apparently believing it to be either possessed or bugged. Not exactly a lot of rage, since he didn't know someone was intentionally messing with him, but loving up the breed of roleplayer who attempt to score public cybersex in MMO's never gets old to me.

I love the mental image of a guy thinking he'll woo anyone when he's shouting out directions every few seconds. "Yes, this is the finest wine from the valleys of LEFT! southern Elfingtonhamshire. Picked and refined by the most skilled RIGHT! FASTER! artisans." "You eyes are like limpet pools FULL STOP! of moonlight."

I want to get into a game where I can grief as lovely as in EVE, but I really don't want to find a small community again I can do it with.

Ultima Online I don't know if another goon already said it, but there was an event where Lord British (yes, supposedly the actual Richard Garriot) came online to chat with the server. He was really there to answer a few questions and to advertise his new game. Anyways, he was so loving boring and scripted that goon-guild left. Now, the event was in his castle, and no horses were allowed in, no mounts. So what do we do? We start killing every single mount that was parked outside of the castle. Some mounts were bound to their owner, yes, but others weren't. Now, if you haven't played UO before, some of these mounts are rare, some are extremely hard to get and tame and bind to their owner. Dead, all loving dead while they heard Lord British spill his crap. A huge bonus. A nightmare, the most powerful and rarest of mounts, attacked by a goon, followed him outside of the city, all the way back to his house. He trapped the nightmare and waited however many days before being able to tame it himself. This is grief x3, because the original owner only had so many slots of followers until his nightmare became untamed, and it was a nightmare, and because it "found" a new owner. As for me, I just killed mounts with as little resources as possible, dying a lot, since each attack meant guards could kill you if they were summoned by an observing player. I kept under a bridge with another couple of goons to lower the chances. However, someone attacked me while "grey" yet not "criminal" (a funny quirk about UO which is 100% intended) and I was able to kill that person and loot his body entirely. EverQuest I played a necromancer, the most envied of classes for a very long time during the first two expansions. They had every little tool you can imagine, including the spell at level 16 (loving hell I can't believe I actually remember the level, yes it was THAT addicting) called Feign Death, which mimiced the ability monks possessed to lose all aggression from any pursuing NPC. This first story takes place at my newbie levels, when I really didn't know poo poo about EverQuest. I was an Erudite, for anyone who knows. Us evil erudites begin on Paineel, in a city on an island that's pretty loving hard to begin on. I went carefully through Erudin, and on the boat to the mainland. I had to go through the Qeynos sewers to get safely through the city, since I'm KOS to too many NPCs. Lots of bad poo poo down there. I came across a corpse, and got my first PM from a non-real-life friend, someone who wanted me to drag her body across the sewers to a safe spot. I was really a newbie, I had to ask for the commands to do such a thing, etc. So I'm dragging this loving body, and come across an NPC necromancer, who immediately attacks me. I'm dragging this body down some water tunnels without thinking, and then load into another zone. I don't think about it for another second and ignore the PMs I get from this person. About 55 levels later this same person who I completely forgot messages me saying how much she hates me, how she lost all of her equipment because I dragged her body somewhere she couldn't find. I couldn't help but laugh in reality at the situation. She was also a necromancer, same level, in a rival guild. It was pretty hilarious. Also trained hostile NPCs onto rival guilds later on. It's part of the code!
