The Seven Deadly Sins Of Online Gaming

[Toty54]

Have you ever Cheated?
Have you ever Teamkilled?
Have you ever Ragequit?
Have you ever Mic Spammed?
Have you ever Griefed?
Have you ever Spawn Killed?
Have you ever Teabagged?
(Last EDIT i promise)

Confess your sins and seek redemption.

Seriously though I have Ragequit and killed a Team Member.

 

[dalek sec]

What is Ragequit by the way?

 

[GodsOneMistake]

Ragequit, I do that every now and than... FUCKING COD4

I don't cheat or teamkill though

 

[happysock]

Top 3, I'm so ashamed, Glitched on castle and round house on world at war. The team kill one can be quite funny sometimes. And i haven't rage quited in a while, so i'm getting better

 

[Curtmiester]

Well besides "Cheating" I'm sure everyone has at least done the other two. But why are these sins?

 

[Macgyvercas]

What is Ragequit by the way?

I was wondering that too. Yahtzee mentioned in his review of Valkyria Chronicles

 

[Radeonx]

What is Ragequit by the way?

When you get frustrated and quit.

I kill team members frequently, it is very entertaining.
Cheated, I have not, and neither have I rage-quitted.

Edit: Nevermind.

For the sake of Drama

No, yes, no, no, no, yes, yes, respectively.

I personally can't find the audacity to go and actually cheat on an online game. I have used what people might refer to as "nooby tactics", but it's their fault for not being able to kill a noob.

I have ragekilled a teammate, because he was being a fuckhead.

For some reason, I'd be too embarrassed to ragequit. I know, it's stupid. They're never going to see me again, blah blah blah. It just feels wrong to ragequit though.

Mic spamming is for 10 year olds.

And so is grieving, in the right context.

Technically, I spawn camped on this one match on Halo 1; I was trying to get the flag, but everyone kept respawning and attacking me. This was back in the days where I'd get the 3 shot kill with the pistol fairly often, and everyone kept swarming. The second I returned the flag to our base, I got booted for spawn camping.

I've camped too, but only with a sniper, and while killing things. Camping with any other weapon and for any other reason is just so boring.

-EDITED DUE TO NINJA'ING-

OT: I have not ragequited before but I may have accidently team killed a couple times.

 

[darthzew]

I try to play fair and by the rules, so, no, I don't cheat online.
I've only team killed on accident.
I have indeed ragequit a couple of times.

 

[Fat Hippo]

I have teamkilled, but I was drunk...which is probably another sin of online gaming anyway though, so that isn't much of an excuse.
I've never cheated though, that's just uncool.
And ragequit, sure, but depending on the game, that isn't really a sin. Who cares if 1 of the 20 people on a TF2 server leaves.

 

[Kiutu]

Well, if I quit on you, you cheated. This currently happens alot on Marvel vs Capcom 2. Now though, I just dont play cheap teams to minimize this.
I dont teamkill innocent, and I dont cheat against innocent.

 

[wooty]

Ragequitting was one of my biggest sins, but then I got rid of Halo 3 and all was well again

 

[Katherine Kerensky]

All of the above, I'm so ashamed, Glitched on castle and round house on world at war. The team kill one can be quite funny sometimes. And i haven't rage quited in a while, so i'm getting better

I only glitched on roundhouse to stop glitchers
I just sat behind the wall watching them try to get in.. if they did I would kill them. I didn't shoot anyone else.
my own personal shot at justice

so basicly commited none of the sins, as I can justify the 1 I did.

Edit: I only Spawn Kill when it is completely unavoidable e.g. they spawn right infront of me. (Facing away I will sometimes leave them and just run, but if facing me I have to kill or be killed)

 

[ThatCanadianDude]

I've never cheated, though I have been acused of it. I was playing a game were a guy sniped me 5 times in a row, so I took a different route, aimed were he seemingly refused to move from, sniped him, and he accused me of using an aimbot. I find cheating ruins the challenge for me and the fun for others.

I've teamkilled, but it's always been an accidental, mostly due to misplaced gernades and twitchy trigger fingers in maps too big for small teams.

I've rage quitted, but it usually takes me awhile. I'll sit with a game that keeps getting me infuriated for about half an hour before I lose it and make for the hills.

Yeah Ragequiting doesn't quite fit but why 2 when you can have 3.
