I'll do you one better. At one point the main spawn point for the starts of the game only had a handful of exits. Myself and collaborators created multiple accounts and each ran multiple copies of the game, we completley blocked the entrance to the actual game from the spawn points. This was on the weekend and it seems there were no GMs about, we did not get booted and banned till monday afternoon.
I don't remember if it was before or after this, but when I played ToonTown, if you walked into someone, you would bump them slightly backwards. For some reason, it was fairly common for people to go AFK in the main hubs leading to combat areas rather than log off somewhere safe, which of course meant that people were constantly bumping people toward the combat areas, which would trigger an area change whether you were there or not, where they were eventually killed by a wandering cog.

I don't think the consequences of dying were that bad, but it was pretty funny how prevalent it became for a while.
