Had a funny moment tonight first off,I was sitting in sirens near the villain base not paying attention watching TV.
So I turn around and 3 villains are on me and then im dead so this one villain goes "lick that" so I say well done you just killed me whilst i was watching tv...bla bla bla anyway he didn't beleve me so later one of his team mates TP me into a tower and im stuck in there,big mistake i have tp foe so I tp the guy who was taunting me into there and beast him 2 times in a row,he starst moaning that it was a lame tactic thats what made me laugh......it was there own fault they tp me into there so I just keep tp one after the other and killing them in there....was very amusing,they couldn't go anywhere and hurricane was just flipping them on there back sides

I noticed the stalker hadn't landed on the building with me, they had carried on over the edge and dropped into a spawn of longbow. Made me giggle

I'm sure it'd be just as funny for the person who ends up dying that way and receiving experience debt due to the TPer's exploit. Surprising the number of "funny moments" on this topic that are actually recounting some example of bug exploitation or poor sportsmanship.
Had an amusing 45mins with Tylantia a day or two ago in Siren's Call on my defender, against a team of stalkers who had to hold each others' hand everywhere, we had a bit of a laugh at their expense seeing as we were the only two heroes out there at the time.

I had to laugh at that one too
I know who did that too. He was being a bit vulgar over the broadcast channel whilst he was slamming us heroes around, so I used wormhole to put him in the miniature guardtower, from which he couldnt escape. Naturally, this was only meant in a humorous fashion, and was intended to show him its not fun to have the full extent of 'legal' PVP tactics used against you. We got the stalkers to agree to leave us alone whilst I came back and wormholed him out of the tower again.
Its surprising how they change their tune from "If you dont like it, dont come to a PVP zone" to "omg u r lame, [censored pet cat], cheat". Im taking it that it was the same guy, as he hasnt had any trouble deciding to TP foe people out of the safezone, before. Particularly people with afk signs up.
Still, you have to laugh, eh?
I gave up after I petitioned the guardhouse bug twice, so now I just keep it at the back of my mind for those rare situations... muahaha. Im sure he took the joke as a serious ganking attempt, even though I got him out. I dont seem to be very popular in SC right now do I? It never ceases to amaze me how much a tantrum people are willing to have, when they are treated the same way they treat others.. (in general)
Hear hear, the stalkers I mentioned when I was grouped with Tyl got very vocal about how unfair/unearned it was when we started killing them.

Could you point out where I stated I used tp? Or perhaps exactly what exploit I used? My advice is to read something correctly before passing judgement and labelling me a bad sport.
Oh, and for your information not once did I state that the stalker died from the spawn.
For your information, not once did I say you killed them, I said it's hilarious for the person who ENDS up dying. Is that past tense? No? Don't be such a hypocrite then.

If you happen to be able to counter their rehearsed attack patterns, you're generally called a coward. Unfortunately playing it cautious is the only way we can spot/counter stalkers in the end, and even with hurricane and dispersion bubble, I still ended up getting AS'ed twice without seeing them. Its a love/hate deal, and sometimes people -are- cowards, but if people are learning to respect the way stalkers play, perhaps they should learn to respect the way we have to counter them.
Either way, im just an arguement magnet recently, perhaps I should call it a service and start charging?
I take Faulty in Sirens now and again. He's harmless (only has stone fist and brawl at that level) but virtually indestructable. So I was sat in the villian hangar having a look around when a Brute appears. He watches me for a moment (I'm not moving) and then cautiously gets closer. I was expecting him to try and poke me with a stick or something. I happened to have stone fist on auto and as soon as he gets closer enough, he gets hit and scampers away. He edges around me for another minute or two and then I get a tell asking for help with another of my chars. So I quit to login and as soon as that 30 seconds appears over my head he leaps onto me. Brave chap.
I did giggle as I watched him trying to do more than 10 dmg for the next thirty seconds.
Also found a MM hovering high above sirens. He didn't react to seeing me so I guess was afk. Would take far to long to try and kill him (and is a bit unsporting) so I just hit brawl a couple of times and watched his jingle jetpack turn off. Don't think he landed on anything nasty....

Nice to see a good natured `new` pvper in sirens Frazz and yeah me and D'mon are a royal pain in the [censored] However with Gandrel we ahve to impale and practiced brawler him as hes using repel these days :P
(For the record I dont have the TP foe power pool but others do but we dont TP people out of hospital/hero base )
[ QUOTE ]
Some very funny ones. It's good to hear people are having fun PvPing and not everyones letting the banter that does happen in pvp get to them
I'll have to add another one. Was just the other day when fighting in sirens. It was some pretty regulars that had teamed up on both sides. Well villains were having a rough time being mostly all stalkers except a brute or two, but they managed rather well and worked out some neat tactics
Well the moment came when stalk-obot dropped out of invis above our group to impale me after whichs seemed like a swarm of stalkers appeared around me and brought me down in seconds.
What made it a great pvp moment for me is that it was a well organised attack and i know the reason they did it was cause i was being a pain to them and I know Stalk was behind the setup. I could imagine what he was telling his group, that scoundrel
Also later that night I finally managed to catch or make sure another stalker (D'monique) didn't get away from us even though it did cost me my own neck but that was a very satisfying moment indeed as she's gotten away from me constantly til then. Very slippery one that one
Hmm odd how all my favority PvP moments seem to involve myself faceplanting 
[/ QUOTE ]
I do prefer to play things a little more relaxed and just have fun but when things start to shift in terms of balance some teamwork and tactics have to come into play (its such a bonus when they involve Gandrel though ) Impales Immob must be really annoying for him as he cant reach a villain/npc to heal himself as the hoard decends upon him
I think there were 2 kinetics in there that night and I have never died so much before 2xSiphon speed and I just turn off all my toggles so I die faster as I know I am done for

Hmm just missing Tyl's head along side botty, D'mon, Hacks & Scirroco(sp?) in my trophy room. Then I'll have a nice collection of all my favorite stalkers Tyl just doesn't want to come out and play when I'm around 
Anyways enough of my babble, lets hear about some more funny pvp moments
Having an angry MM who I had just AS in Warburg bring in his Katana/Super Reflex Scrapper to teach me a lesson. Thing is, if your a Super Reflex Scrapper it's probably a good idea to turn your toggles on first. The fight lasted all of 5 seconds after a Build Up/AS/Placate/Eagle's Claw Critial.
Crane kicking someone off a building always enhances my villianous chuckle too

Ash/Tar Corruptor

@The Smoking Demon
The whole "forgetting to turn on toggles"-deal sounds awfully familiar 
.
Took my new NRG/Stone brute into Sirens last night and TPing the warshade who was floating above shooting at us down and into my total focus made me smile

Damn, the only time I got killed as my stalker in Sirenes was when I forgot to turn on mez protection and got a massive hold from all the heroes I've been annoying. OK, so it's not a toggle, but a clicky, but still...
And even after that I would forget to turn the bloody thing on! 
<hits his head against a brick wall>
Oh, I had so much fun in Bloody Bay yesterday, even though it was short. A small team of my MA/SR scrapper, a healer, troller and a blaster head to the villain base and start trashing the turrets inevitably waiting for villian players to have a go. Realise how good SR is. Decide to wait untill 3 quarters health is gone after a good 30 sec pummeling from a fire corrupter, then launched at him, with the blaster having a go too. I was hoping a Dominator would have turned up to shut me up or something
I actually spent a good four hours today debuffing villain damage in bloody bay avaraging 15 minutes per mish. Don't think they were very happy .
I was sitting on the highest ledge of the skyscraper in sirens minding my own buisness, reading a book and glancing at the chat panel in case of any people showing up. After a while I looked up and found a dominator with a jingle jet hovering around me. Interested I sat and watched. He landed on the ledge and started to attack me. He didn't drop my integration so I remained sitting on this little ledge regenerating faster than he was hurting me. Confused he flew back around to look me in the eyes. Strange how some people seem to think flying makes you more powerful as he could have quite happily killed me there on the ledge. Suddenly I stand up, and impale him. I jump after him (SJ ftw) and land on the floor, brawling him for the 1 hp he has left, jump back up the buildings to the top and wait for another victim :-)
OOOO OOOOO!!!
Last night!
I'd just logged in into CoH with my bubbler scarlet, was still in Siren's.
Bubbled a few pple there, got teamed by my sg mates, as I clicked to turn on PFF I got teleported away from the front of the base, fascinated I hung around a bit to see what was going on.
2 MM's, and one Corrupter started firing at me, so I turned Manouvers and my Dispersion bubble on.... flew down and started typing in Local, at which point 3 stalkers all appeared simultaniously to AS me.
I finished typing, and let them know that I didn't have time to play now and promptly flew off.
It was just such a strange yet interesting experience.
I could just imagine the frustrated and shocked faces of those 3 stalkers though!
That was not a novice victory Ram :P
I have fly, not a jingle jet, and i wanted to test your resistances as you were new to the zone =) I flew in, held you, tried to drop your toggles and flew off. I don't have enough damage to kill a scrapper before my hold wears off, so when you SJ'd after me i figured i'd Immobilize you to ground you, but forgot you were Spines, so you Imapled me and my immobilize missed. When i was grounded, it was the poison that killed me, you weren't that near :P
~saves dignity in sweeping fashion and flies off into the3 night laughing maniacally 'you'll never catch me!'~

Teleporting villains can be good fun. I have - on several occasions - gone AFK in Siren's Call and come back, finding myself standing around in some remote location (unharmed usually). One time I had been teleported from the gate up on some tall, tall building. I'd have loved to see that as it happened .
I just die lots, but when I was afk out of the hero hospital in Siren's, I decided to throw my voltaic sentinel up to dissuade any brave stalkers while I nipped off.
