Hey Duders agus Duderiniettes
I just had a bizarre experience in a game of League of Legends which I shall describe below.
My question to you is what are the strangest interactions you have had with people online? Be it video games or other wise.
I do not mean general or vicious abuse, I am mainly looking for weird and wonderful experiences with strangers on the internet.
Here is what just happened to me and my friends:
I was playing League of Legends with 3 of my buddies. We were doing the ARAM mode, which is 5 v 5 on a single lane map.
We are losing badly. Very badly. Somehow, towards the end we manage to wipe their team out and take down all their towers and their inhibitor in one swoop. They kill most of us, but we still get their two base turrets. This leaves their base wide open, as is ours.
The enemy team rushes down the lane towards our base. We are fucked. However, my friend Stevie has managed to hide himself in the bush near their base, by very cleverly flashing into the fog of war and then using his ability (Kassadin) to flash again into the bush. They don't notice him and run on by. When he is sure they are too far away to get him, he legs it towards their base and attacks their nexus, while the entire enemy team is about to attack ours. We win the game when our nexus is at about 10%. A beautiful win, brought about by my friend and his clever thinking.
We get to the post game screen. The member of our team who was pulled from the pool of online players proceeds to give my friend HORRENDOUS abuse. Incredible abuse. His opinion is that we should have lost, and let the other team win, rather than win with an ingenious backdoor attack. It was "Lame".
This is by far the strangest reaction I have gotten playing LOL. I have been privy to mounds of horrible abuse. Un-cooperative players. Trolls. But getting abuse for winning the game? That has NEVER happened. We could do nothing but laugh and wonder at the strange, strange person we just met on the internet.
What are your stories?
