The Most Ridiculous "Grief" You Ever Received

I like toying with my prey before I eat them. :D

Most of the griefing I deal with on the Isle of Wyrms is of the minor "Rules? What rules?" variety. A lot of times, I torture them with mind games and word play before I give em the boot. No matter what, I always have more fun with the situation than they have. :D

Here's a funny story, though.

We sometimes to get the occasional person who like to rez his vehicle in the sandbox, drive it around, run into people, and generally get it stuck where he can't get it out. One time, one of our Citizens decided to rez his VW Beetle and drive it around. Of course, I am standing there, he knows the rules, but apparently doesn't see me. So, after he runs me down once, I put his vehicle in edit mode and just stand there (oh, btw, my av goes mostly invisible, so that might be one reason why he didn't see me ;) ). He sits there for a minute, shifting gears, but going absolutely nowhere. Some of the others who are standing nearby and a couple who are riding with him start making suggestions that it "broke", and give him a plethora of advice on how to "fix" it. Presently, he takes it and re-rezzes it, and I put it back in edit mode. He keeps triying everything to get it to move. As he runs up the gears again, I notice the vehicle is pointed towards the lake on the side of the sandbox, near the sim border. There is a small rise just before the lake.. and he's up to fifth gear now... OK, I close the edit window, whereupon the car goes zooming across the sandbox, hits the rise, does a perfect General Lee jump WAY out into the lake, and crosses the sim border before it hits bottom.

Needless to say, he and car were very soon parted and the car was autoreturned later from somewhere in a neighboring sim. :P

I've posted this one before, but it fits here: On Help Island a tiny hedgehog avatar walked up to my alt and started peeing on the alt's leg, quicly producing a huge yellow puddle completely surrounding the alt. I was laughing too hard to orbit the bugger.

Best one I ever heard of, though, was the time somebody got a bunch of protestors together at a Gorean sim, all dressed up in Abraham Lincoln avatars and carrying protest signs saying "Free The Slaves." Priceless.

That is my favotite story, I would have loved to see that.

Quite a while ago, this one..

I'm building in the sandbox when an av we shall henceforth call "4dayold Noob" wanders up to me and gets the cage gun out. Bang, I'm caged, but this is the days of 'right-click-on-and-sit-to-escape', so I'm out of it in seconds.

He tries it again, same result.

4dayold Noob " WTF why can you get out"
Me: "I think your gun is broken, mate"
4dayold Noob "why is it broekn i just got it"

I tell him to drop the gun on the sandbox floor and delink all the bits. Then I tell him to reset all the scripts, after making a few careful changes to the scripts to ensure they are totally screwed up. Then I tell him to relink them, and that one certain prim must always be the root prim, but that setting it as the root prim is a matter of luck rather than judgement*, and just to keep delinking and relinking it until that special certain prim goes yellow.

To my amazement, not to mention amusement, he sets about trying to relink it all... over and over again.

For all I know, he's still in a sandbox somewhere, trying to make the damn thing link up.


* Yes, I told a fib. Bad, bad Macha.


PS: Talarus, confession time: I do that too.... It's great fun, clicking on cars and making them skid to a halt. It's even more fun watching them get out and back in again... rinse and repeat... god I'm evil ^.^

Can't say it was funny but I had neighbors that would orbit me, shoot at me with a gun that projected penis that followed me, been caged etc.

Afterwards, I decided to just remain friendly & shouted a cheerful "hello how are you today greeting" every time I logged in....and reported every incident.

However, I wasn't broken hearted when they decided to sell their land.

SHRUGS!

Don't stick out that tongue unless you plan to use it. (could be considered griefing) :)

When I was building the temple on Laurentia I would occasionally teleport over to Fuchsia and take some measurements (because I was building a copy of a temple on Fuchsia).

One day while doing this I became aware of a lot of black smoke, I looked up and there was this guy standing a few meters away. He was 7 - 8 ft tall dressed in long black flowing flexi robes, long black hair and a scary face with red glowing eyes.

"I am the Master of the Underworld kneel before me subject lest I cast you into the depths of Hell (or words to that effect)" he said while raising a huge sword over me

"Go away" I replied

"Oh right..sorry" he said and vanished..never saw the Master of the Underworld again after that.

Perre..:D

Are you sure it wasn't Trout?


Yes, someone named Trout who called me a creep or ape I would have remembered.

I was short of prims on my land so I went to a sandbox to build.I rezzed my sky platform and started to build all I had to do was some pics etc.I didn't notice anybody on my radar but suddenly I made a loud farting noise and a puff of green smoke came out of my arse!! This continued every 20 secs or so till I finished work and tp'd. home .I was laughing so much my sides ached.



similar thing happened when I built a sky pad on my land.. for some reason a few days in a row I was farting whenever I walked.. i couldn't figure it out for the life of me!

Honey, some guys just like that.. if you don't, tell your man beforehand.

I mean really, guys are supposed to shoot during cyber, aren't they? =P


They aren't supposed to shoot you with a Bazooka.

And no I am not using a euphemism.

Liked it rough, eh?

Good thing you weren't boinking him in RL, or we'd be short one Colette.

From: Trout Recreant
I had forgotten about the Free The Slaves griefing. That has to be one of the top five SL griefing incidents in history. My hat is off to whomever dreamt that one up. Pure comic genius.


I forget what group that was but I remember that, haha. It got SO MUCH attention cause unlike most griefing, it was actually funny as hell, not just stupid

From: Conifer Dada
I was working on a skyclub project at a Chelsea Sandbox when a curious newbie turned up and started asking all sorts of questions about building. I took some time to show them how things were done. They offered me various bits of useless advice too, strangely. Then I explained I had to go and they said I must clear everything away before I go. As that was the sandbox rule I did so, but missed one or two bits.
The newbie insisted I cleared every last prim otherwise they'd have to report me and have me banned from the sandbox. That's what I call gratitude!


ROFL!!!

From: Colette Meiji
i've been ...

Fire-bombed, orbited, shot during cyber, visited by a maturbating guy riding a flying cow, photographed naked via cam zoom, spied on by a UFO in my skybox, chat spammed, sound effect spammed, Visiting when a sim was crashed/attacked, and had my club boycotted by a group of people.


I never bothered filing an AR on any of it. And I still think that griefing is a far overblown problem in second life.


Me too, u see how much great comedy we can get out of it when we don't take everything so serious...a masturbating guy RIDING A FLYING COW??? Jesus H. Christ Mohammed & Buddha I can't even laugh anymore!
