I'm glad this thread is still around. The only griefing I ever did was Team Fortress Classic, where if you were good, you could quickly slow down most of a team's flagrunners as a spy. Once they fixed the netcode and people actually got cable internet the spy's tranq gun, which wasn't hitscan, would hit much more reliably and slow people down to 1/4 speed for about 30 seconds. Then you could pick them off, backstab them, or let your team take care of them. This made everyone flip out because it was basically a death sentence (but not really, this time I'm going to survive!...and I'm dead. Dammit). The slowdown was such an incredibly jarring effect (because with bunnyhopping the game was essentially as fast as competitive quake 3) that I got a lot of people trained to suicide immediately rather than deal with the effects.

While I'm on the topic, there was one clan called House of Pain that used to specialize in off kilter defensive strats. One of their best involved using three spies on defense (where one would only occasionally be used on offense on some maps) for Badlands rather than a Hw, two soldiers, a demo man, and engineer. Badlands objective was a flag in a silo that the enemy had to drop into to carry out the flag. House of Pain figured out that you could have three spies constantly throwing their secondary grenades (they spawned right next to the silo with 4 apiece), which were hallucinatory pills (it would play sounds and explosions, and show you stuff that wasn't occurring) that had a mild pushback effect (amplified with multiple pills) with damage over time. The net effect was freeing up 6 people total on their team to go on offense and dominating the other team, while the enemy team offense floated gently to the bottom of the silo, stoned out of their gourds on lsd and hallucinating, and then dying. It necessitated a rules change.

I use Hola unblocker so I can buy super discounted NFL internet streaming packages from non broadcasting countries. Works pretty well.

Spoz posted:Does anyone have a link the the story of a goon from one of those block builder survival games making the giant offensive banner on accident? Something about building on the wall as all the pubbies raged and he couldn't figure out why until later? That was from somewhere in the 7 days to die thread. The goon base murderchurch or whatever couldn't understand why this army of pubbies kept besieging them one night at random and swearing at them and it turned out that some of the blocks on their giant statue collapsed and it spelled out "COON" instead of "GOON"

I think I damaged my lungs laughing when you guys figured out how to make people browned out drunk and vomit all over the place by vomiting on them, spreading it around like the pie eating contest from Stand By Me.

Can we have that quote from the defeated admin talking about how he job restricted 2 players who then ended up making nuclear bombs out of potato chips? Also an explanation of how they did it would be cool too. Edit: here it is. "I couldn't figure out how you goatfuckers STILL managed to be terrorists with potato chips and water. YOU FOUND A WAY. I had two coders on IRC combing through reactions trying to figure out exactly how you motherless fucks were managing to make potato chips and water into explosives, and they had no loving idea. It shouldn't have been possible. It couldn't have been possible. I fear for the safety of the world if the people who managed to find a way to do murders with mother loving potato chips and goddamned water ever get recruited by a real world terrorist organization. The headlines the next day will read something like WE'RE ALL hosed: SOME NERD KILLS 3/4 OF THE WORLD'S POPULATION WITH A USED BANDAID AND THE SQUEAKER FROM A DOG TOY. THIS SECURITY PHOTO SHOWS THE SUSPECT PURCHASING A STICK OF GUM. DOES HE WANT FRESH BREATH, OR IS HE FINISHING THE JOB? OUR ONLY CONSOLATION IS THAT WE WILL PROBABLY NEVER SEE IT COMING. FILM AT 11 IF WE'RE LUCKY. OR UNLUCKY. gently caress IT. WHATEVER. -(AP) edit to add: I would like to thank the Maker's Mark Distillery for providing me with the liquid courage to have made it through that terrible time" Gumbel2Gumbel fucked around with this message at 05:04 on Jan 26, 2016 |

They did this for TFC back in the day. Roaster John and Perfect Player 2. Soooo many top league players banned. It was glorious. It wasn't VAC bans either, it was a widely disseminated rootkit so it was undeniable Gumbel2Gumbel fucked around with this message at 23:29 on Feb 3, 2016 |
