I just wanted to share a funny experience I had.
Ran into this fellow named "ego" who was talking a lot of smack in a human weapons/bloodgulch CTF game. I know it's just a game but I don't really like it when people are instigating fights for no reason (and especially when they can't back it up). This guy ego thought he was the -blam!- and I dominated him for a while until he shut up (hooray for the odd person knowing when to ease off). Then this real beauty TanTriC comes in and quickly is convinced I am botting. I tell him to sightjack me and he goes "I have something better: vector!!"
I'm like, "...alright", and he continues with the accusations, landing the odd type/hog kill and then boasting about how I've been owned. So I settle back into my chair a little bit and get the ol' pistol going and then (and this is one of my favourite statements that always makes me laugh), he says "ok now I know FOR SURE that you're botting." I try to explain to him the crappy netcode and the whole concept of "lead" and the effectiveness of the pistol but he's not having any of it. He tells me he has 25 years of programming experience and asks how many years I have under my belt. I tell him I don't have any.
He then proceeds to type something similar to...
<exec botnoobdestroy.exe /stage1 /w /p>
into the chat box.... followed by stuff like "firewall disabled" and "wait for stage2!!"
At this point I was laughing pretty hard but playing along because I wanted him to believe I was actually buying into his bull-blam!-. Before I can spit he's "executed stage2" and is telling me to "enjoy your last day on the internet, kid". At the end of the game he's clearly had enough and executes the third and final stage (!!!!!) and tells me the virus has already sent itself to 43 of my contacts. When he realized I wasn't going anywhere, he just quit. I wish I had a video or console dump or something similar, it was priceless.
Now I've been up against some wacky characters in the past but this guy was a cut above and beyond. I would like to give him a prize.
So.. share your stories of idiots or laugh at this one or just let this thread die a quick painless death. I am bored.
Peace.
