No I don't mean making illegal copies. I mean such heinous video game crimes such as camping :eek: or perhaps (more civ related) ROP(right of passage) rape. So fess up, which have you commited?

I was accused of ROP rape when playing this. I also have a nasty habit of camping, but that really is the only way to snipe effectively.

Oh, should probably explain what the terms you use mean, so those not in the know can understand.

If I'm ambushing/sniping I will be camping, though I will move around a bit so that the enemy has to look for me again.

I have TKed on purpose, but only a few tiems and not recently. It's tempting to kill your teammates when FF is on when you really aren't getting many kills in and want to kill SOMETHING.

What is ROP rape?

I actually havent really comitted any. I don't camp, bot, AFK, gank, or anything really, since people who do piss me off. Even in Guild Wars PvP arenas I would only quit if we were down two or more players from other people dropping.

The only time I really did anything was in WoW when I paired up with a guy for a quest and then went AFK and let him do all the work. Although, I was on the phone. :(

I once stole someones camp in a MMORPG. I didn't mean to, I didn't understand how the quest worked at the time, and I felt really bad about it.

Well, I had ganked Horde players sometimes in WoW (because I had been ganked so often... :lol:). And one time when I got ganked while on my alt (3 or more times in a row IIRC), I logged onto my 70 and ganked 10 Hordies in the Hillsbrad/Arathi area. :lol:

Ganked?

Also, I have been AFK, but it's mostly been because of the phone (phones don't really give you enough time to exit the server.

You know when you get a right of passage agreement, and you blockade the other nations ports (at peace) or if you're on a world map the Suez Canal or other choke points.

You gain a right of passage agreement to kind of screw the AI out of movement. I got a right of passage with England (in AoI, as Germany) and stationed dreadnought the entire length of the English canal. So the English or others would have to travel all the way around the British Isles to get to London (slowed their accumulation of VP's).

I also stopped up the Suez Canal so all other nations had to go around Africa. Blocked the Straits of Gibraltar so Italy, Austria-Hungary, Ottomans, etc couldn't get out of the Mediterranean. Finally I stopped up the Panama Canal, so those nations with Colonies in the Far East had to go around South America, or the other way around the world. So you can see how I'm "raping" the AI in a sense.

Oh yes, I've done some bad things in my time...
Most notably, 2 player team (with skeleton skin, in the same room) in Half Life 1 Free For All deathmatch, when it first came out. I'll let you imagine how we owned those games :p (With my sister and her husband)
But the worst I did recently is backstabbing in supposedly team Defcon.
me - No, don't worry, I'll never use those nukes on you...
my friend - Who else then ? (he's leading in score)
- IDK, I'll just finish Africa...
- But they're gone already.
- No, they have stuff left...
*LAUNCH WARNING* (my 40 ICBMS out of their silos)
My friend panicking - Who are you targetting, if it's me you gonna pay, I still have nukes left...
*LAUNCH WARNING* (his last remaining ICBM's)
*LAUNCH WARNING* (my fleet of subs, that have been silently waiting near his coast for the whole game (supposedly sunk in the Atlantic :) ))
His silos disappear (in a nice flash)
And a few minutes later a rain of ICBMs falls on his cities.

This makes for very fun games. And the funniest is, that it's not the first time I've done that to him.
Some people never learn ;)

Oh, and Ganking ? AFK ? TK ?
Tank Guy, maybe you should edit your first post with those acronyms explained...

Then calling it "raping" is an incredibly poor term. More like "right of passage abuse".

AFK = Away From Keyboard
TK = Team Kill

If Civ III were real life, I would be charged with war crimes.

Some of my crimes:

Leveling entire civilizations with bombers (all cities down to 1 population, and at least a dozen cities)
Doing the same, except with artillery
Various genocides (razing entire continents of cities)
Ridiculous levels of ICBM use (nuking entire continents twice over)
Slaughtering large stacks of slave workers

I've also camped a few times in FPS games. Although I don't stay in one place for long periods of time. But sometimes stay in one place for a minute or so.

Well, there's a very hazy line between camping and not camping. If you consistently mvoe about and are a sniper or rifleman and find new camp spots every so often, that's fine, if your team is suppsoed to be on the offensive the whole time than if a lot of people are hanging back to camp that's not okay.

Snieprs are suppsoed to hang back though but once the objective is taken they should move up.

RoP rape is when you set up a large stack of "insert attacking units here" next to a chosen AI's cities whilst in an RoP agreement, then attacking him. You can take out entire civs in 1 turn doing that.

I would use the terms holding to describe hiding in/around key points to complete your objective and camping as hiding in such a position that it will not complete the objective.

Yeah, if you're defending an objective, you knid of have to camp.

Like I said, it's a very hazy line.

I know the feeling. ;)

I'm generally too much of a gentleman to committ even video-game crimes, though I will admit that I have looked at other player's screens in Goldeneye on multiple occasions.

Oh yes, I consistently use other people as bait while playing CS:S. :D

I've used myelf as bait in Hidden, and sometimes I 'let' someone go ahead of me but not much more often than I go ahead first.

Oh yes, I consistently use other people as bait while playing CS:S. :D

That's not a crime, that's common sense :D

That's not a crime, that's common sense :D

It's a crime at the level I do it, since I abuse them when they don't bait the specific way I wanted them to. :mischief:

Oh yeah, the most heinious of all crimes, SPAWN RAPE.

I freaking hate getting spawn raped, or killed within 20 seconds of spawning (even if I'm half way across the map by then). However, that is part of the game for Red Orchestra, and any objective based map, you have to pick off the enemy before they can get back to the objective while you cap it, which can be frustrating for players if they are getting steam rolled or just dying a lot.

And I have spawn raped with artillery (you will quickly learn to HATE HATE HATE artillery while loving it at the same time in RO, it totally screws up your aim, the closer you are to it the more you will be diving under cover and hiding in the coner until it is over).

Luckily in RO on most maps it's like a minefield death thing if you enter the enemie's spawn and they are usually behind a wall or aronud the corner in the next street. So most spawn deaths are TKs or self inflicted.

i dunno. my fav is probs spawnrape though :p :D

Spawn kill and massacring thousands of people.

With all this talk about spawn killing, it reminds me of my tendancy to spawn camp in Counter Strike. Especially whilst using the over-powered AWP.

I'm not really sure how camping (not spawn camp) is a crime. You can rarely kill anyone and your opponents probably would've completed the objectives if you camp.

It annoys everyone for 2 reasons.

1) You're not helping the team.
2) You're getting cheap kills.

the people who whine about campers are sore losers :rolleyes: :D

Unless the campers are spawn campers. Then they can legitimately complain.

a kill's a kill azzaman333 :nono:

I said they can complain. I won't complain because I'm probably spawn camping myself.

ah my bad. evidently u r cool
:deadhorse:

fakenicking while questioning opponents' sexuality is another winner

Oh, Civ3 counts??

Well, then...
- I ROP raped 5 civilizations in only one game (huge map, 31 civs, I was destroying them before they could meet most of the others).
- I destroyed many, many civilizations just because they were on the same continent with me, and I like to be the owner of my continent.
- I attacked (and destroyed) entire civs for reasons like one unimportant size 2 border city in the middle of arid plains flipping to them
- I razed hundreds of cities
- I used 95% of the discovered exploits at least once.

In other games:

- In San Andreas I killed thousands of people to test how the weapons work, and how good the graphics are
- I also killed thousands of people just to get my wanted level up
- I blew up cars for fun, but I admit it was mostly to test the plastic explosives, not only for fun
- I blew up lots of police helicopters
- In Vice City I was regularly killing all the guardians of my Vercetti Mansion just to see if there will always be new ones when I return

- I cheated at least once in probably all games I've ever played, though only in one on a regular basis (GTA, I play the series almost ONLY for the cheats :)).

Mirc, most fo those you lsited are not really the same kind of crime. Exploits and sort of AI Abuse, is.
Most of these criems are crimes in Multiplayer rather than singleplayer though.

I researched a bit the missions for CoH and was always ready for the AI. Not really a crime, but it still reduced the surprise and the o-shi... element of the game. Still, murdering volks is always fun.

I've Tked many people on America's Army, and BF2 Demo. :D

Seriously, this person was so gay on America's Army, he TKed almost everyone, and you don't spawn in AA, unless the next round starts. So all of use ganged up on the TKer, he kept on dying every single round. I also flashbanged everyone in our spawn area, and you get blinded for 20-30 seconds. :D

Finally, I have accidentally nuked my team on World in Conflict, because my uber 1337 plan went so well, they moved faster than schedule. :p

Ganked?

Also, I have been AFK, but it's mostly been because of the phone (phones don't really give you enough time to exit the server.Kill a player when he's way below you in levels (more than 10 usually) or while he's busy killing something.

I am a proud camper :p

The only games I've gotten into (multiplayer) for the last 4 years have been Operation Flashpoint (until the beginning of '07) & then Armed Assault, both games are played on such a large scale that campers are as vulnerable as they are deadly. On most ArmA servers, people who complain about campers are told that instead of complaining, their time would be better spent learning to hunt them.
