Random Cruelest, Most Messed Up Things Gamers Have Done To Other Gamers (13 items)

(#1) The Raid At A 'World Of Warcraft' Funeral

In 2006, a group of players from the Alliance guild Serenity Now decided to raid an in-game funeral taking place in World of Warcraft. Members of a Horde faction planned the ceremony to commemorate the real death of one of their members after a fatal stroke.

But they conducted the ceremony on a PvP server, making it possible for anyone to kill players in the region.

This allowed Serenity Now, who learned about the event on the game's official forum, to crash the funeral and massacre everyone in attendance. Even worse, none of the mourners were prepared for trouble because they didn't expect anyone to be so callous.
(#12) A 'World Of Warcraft' Player Made People Jump Into The Ocean

Redditor /u/Fly_Eagles_Fly played World of Warcraft as the Undead Shadow Priest. He would climb into a blimp at Orgrimmar and challenge other players to duel once the blimp began moving. He would then cast mind control.

For the first few seconds, he'd have them dance. Then he'd walk the player to the edge of the blimp and make them jump into the ocean. The player would then have to swim back to shore and wait for another blimp.
(#6) The Falador Massacre Killed Hundreds Of People In 'RuneScape'

The Falador Massacre occurred in RuneScape in 2006. When Cursed You, the first player to reach level 99 in construction, held a party to celebrate his new achievement, it created a glitch that allowed certain people to kill anyone even if they were in a safe zone.

The party contained some combat events that caused the glitch, and when players were booted from Cursed You’s home, the servers struggled to handle the load. That released defenseless players into the wild. Once others learned they could kill characters that couldn’t fight back, they slaughtered almost everyone they came across over and over again.
(#11) An 'Ultima Online' Player Manipulated Players To Death

An Ultima Online human character named Belan described herself as a noble looter. She claimed to never directly kill anyone, but she would loot every dead body she came across.

Turns out she discovered a lot of dead bodies because she had mastery of skills that allowed her to control any wild creature, allowing her to manipulate the deaths of characters in practically any situation. She would then resurrect them and offer to sell them back their own gear for half its worth.
(#9) A 10-Month Infiltration To Assassinate An 'EVE Online' Guild Leader

EVE Online is practically designed for players to carry out long-term plans and feats of espionage. Players run huge in-game corporations and the rules allow for all sorts of foul play.

In 2005, a group known as the Guiding Hand Social Club spent 10 months infiltrating the Ubiqua Seraph corporation at the behest of a client. Spies managed to implant themselves in almost every area of the target, and one member was able to gain the trust of the CEO they had been hired to kill. They killed her, destroyed her prized ship, and stole billions of ISK with a real-world value of around $16,500.
(#8) A Father Hired Virtual Assassins To Kill His Son In Online Games

Fearing his son was spending too much time playing online video games, a father in China decided to take matters into his own hands. He hired experienced players to track down his son’s characters in several different games and mercilessly kill them over and over again.

The boy eventually learned what his dad had done when he confronted some of his attackers and demanded to know why they were constantly harassing him.
