Back when I used to play WoW and before the guards in Cenaurian Hold in Silitus were made uber, I used to kill AFK people with my hunter with aimedshot + auto + multi shot and then Feign Death. hitting an AFK person is 100% crit so I often 1/2 shotted poor mages sitting AFK in town. The best part is if they attacked you back and got killed by the guards, they took a durability hit. (but I didn't because I feigned death).

Also fun in silithus was stealing people's summons, especially the Lords (require a lot of materials to summon). They are 4-8 man "bosses" so a group of 1 or 2 people (me + healer or warrior) could easily steal the summon from the original group and get the loot.

Me (full t2, some t3 with best weapons) + HWL warrior + shammy with hand 'o rag used to run around Silithus killing everyone and everything for hours and hours. Eventually we had to log out for a good 30 minutes because we had so many people chasing us and corpse camping us. Of course we deserved it because of our antics. Logging on to a friends Alliance account and shit talking them after we killed them just added insult to injury (I as horde).

Killing chinese farmers over and over again also provided some entertainment.

I quit about after 1.2 years of playing. The most fun I had playing the game was world PVPing in Silithus and Blackrock Mountain. Good times.

I have a video I can upload when I get home. Its of me + shammy killing a group of 6 alliance, and then killing them all again when they rezzed before we could make our getaway.

After reading these stories I now realize what an azzhole I must have been. :p

The topic should be changed to "people who are going to hell..."

* Invite a teammate into your jeep/helicopter/bomber/whatever, then crash it. Best if you manage to bail out safely before the crash.

* TKing but acting innocent in chat when people retaliate. As someone else posted, often the innocent victim will be picked on by those who weren't paying attention to my antics. I've gotten innocents kicked from servers before by using this trick.

* Landmines in front of the planes on your own team's carrier deck, Coral Sea map.

* Drive important boats off the map / to the middle of nowhere.

Edit: This link seemed appropriate for this thread:
True Griefing Tales

lol... you *******:). I remember that in Tribes. The worst thing was when I realized what was going on and managed to bail out. It took 5 minutes to get back to my base or the enemie's cause of how far out the dude (you) did it;).

The chat thing: ha. Not completely related, but I remember being b!tched at in Arma for doing nothing wrong. I drove some idiot around in a Stryker I personally brought to the fight, let him rack up kills, and when we died, I got cussed out. All cause an enemy RPG that got my vehicle didn't kill it completely, but killed it enough that it "cooked off" and just blew up. Thus, my name was on the 'who killed who' log.
