So did anything actually come of this? Did any of them get banned? Was the ban on the sniper permanent? Gimme deets.
Not a thing! Some of our guys think the sniper got banned for shittalking in global since it was only for that server. Also we sent counter-reports just to cover our butts:

Haha holy poo poo. Thanks, never saw that



We started a tribe named Tryx on Official 343, a dying server in the stranglehold of two warring tribes - The Merchant's Guild and Angels of Death.

Together they would claim or wall off every resource, every viable location, crush every smaller tribe fearing they were a proxy for the other side. MG alts were used to raid at least two AoD bases, disguised as pirates. Their plans were to finish the server off after Thanksgiving. We know all of this from placing spies in both tribes, rising through the ranks, feeding us crucial information. Also, some of our players were the real pirates! Diplomacy kept them off our backs until we could seize a relatively secure location.


Afterwards they destroyed random tribes suspected of harboring us. Here's a recording of MG recommending the use of ESP

And finally, here's MG crying about everything. After weeks of constant poo poo-talking in chat and throwing their weight around, they run off to a private server after one setback.

(Copied from http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3734854&perpage=40&pagenumber=73#post453482172)

PS.






Haha, wow, thanks for that.

Was playing EDF with goons earlier and a random player joined with a similar but less impressive sounding username as one of us. Made me wonder how effective a trolling strategy it would be to show up in games with usernames that are like "(username) But Better" or "But Not lovely".

Wow, that went completely over my head. It's not like it usually matters though since you will be shooting very big things at very close ranges. Also having actual bullet physics would be detrimental, the game runs like rear end as it is.

Playing on the Lost Continent servers made me really decent at pyro, such that I could go onto most standard-ish servers and top the list as the purported no-skill-noob-class-W+M1 pyro. People always got salty when I asked how bad everyone else must be if a guy named "THE WORST GUY ON THE TEAM" was doing better than the entire server.

its the best of the spray and pray classes. run around someone focusing fire on them for 3 seconds. kite them toward the health. ignite them either as soon as they heal or blow them away from it and take it yourself. watch the kills pile up as people try to kill you.

Another fun fact about TF2, you can push your teammates into walls when they walk away from the game.

When they return, they (and their viewers) are treated with a goatse spray.

How grindy is up for grabs right now and we will find out at the end of CB2 or at launch. The KR version is not as grindy as the US version at the moment. There is a vocal minority in the US version that need their asses kicked for wanting a grind.

How griefy will also be known then. There are trade routes and all you can do is destroy their carts and send them back to rebuild it. But if it is really griefy you will probably see quite a few more posts.

There are quite a few posts in here about an older game age of wushu which is pretty much dead now. So here is a repeat of a story.

One of the things that happens in the game is as you run through npcs walking around town, they give you poo poo about it telling you to slow down or watch out as they dodge out of the way.

We started to institute no horse rules in cities where we would whip people and pull them off their horses kung fu style. This pissed them off.

We would end up having them chase us through towns, only to lead them outside of town into an ambush. Traditional kung fu story style.

It became such a large thing that other people started doing this to since they just thought it was the rule of the server.

We found out how to link images in chat at one point and started putting huge in game images in our chat bubbles that read "NO HORSE!" since it was china game and had that for some reason.

That and knocking people off of horses has kinda been a staple of pissing people off in mmos.

Now this new china game lets you plant land mines to do this to people who are on very long non automated traveling.
