Haha, normally I think griefing videos are pretty lame, but this is amazing. All he has to do is say "hello" and the kid goes mental. Awesome.
My favorite bit is at the end when the kid gets calm for a bit and is like "my brother works for Steam, so, uh, have fun getting banned." Then there's a pause of maybe a second and the kid loses his poo poo.

On the topic of Metal Gear Solid's homoerotic tendencies...

In the PSP game MGS: Peace Walker (one of the best MGS games) there's a special bonus mission where you can hang out on a beach with one of the game's petite female characters and "date" her in the way that yelling voice commands at her counts as small talk.

...And then there's another version of the mission that replaces her with your male war buddy.

These are so much better than anything in Mass Effect.

This is exactly what I did in World of Warcraft. I created a dwarf named Klunk and my common stomping grounds would be finding people doing eRP under the bridges in Eversong woods. For some reason the pubbies didn't like a large bearded dwarf attempting to create a three backed beast instead of the standard two backed beast. The out of character rage was fantastic, to the point that I got blacklisted from the more popular RP guilds.
It's even more fun to do the opposite in WoW. Head onto a non-RP server and start RPing loudly and publicly. The nicer and more helpful your character is, the angrier people will get. Playing a Paladin is the best: hand out free loaves of bread to low-level characters, never duel anyone (because Violence Is Wrong), encourage peace between the Horde and Alliance, and admonish people for being mean or negative in general chat. The key is to be extra-friendly to anyone who hates you.

being anonomus only goes so far. There is only so much you can do when you depend on deception and misdirection to engage in one chosen activity.

This is dumb, and so are you.
Intentionally making someone's gameplay experience miserable for no good reason is the classical definition of griefing, and by "classical" I mean "in the Greek or Roman sense." It was the Roman emperor Nero who once asked, as he spawncamped a burning Rome, "Iratus es, frater?"

I want you to consider this statement for a moment. Really think about it. One side is a guy who threatened to rape a child for laughs and the people defending him. The other side is saying that is a bad thing.

Eh, I'll cut the smarm for a second because this really does merit a proper response.

To be serious - I think the hat_got or whatever guy who threatened to rape a kid should have been permabanned loving ages ago. I have no problem with him being ostracised or shat upon from a great height.

I just felt that having his pathetic trolling videos resoundingly ignored by everyone was a far greater punishment for someone so desperate for attention.
I feel pretty okay with speaking against the pedophile rape jokes man, but I get your logic. I just want the mods to ban him so there's nothing to ignore.

The mods can't ban hats unless they also mete out a proper punishment on known child rape jokester, former mod abe. Or it would seem like they have a tacit approval of fake child rape as long as the perp is on the mod team.
