Just recently I was getting harassed and bullied by two players on a TF2 server I normally go to. (It has god mode on maps that don't have an objective, i.e. "dm", or death match, maps. Get god mode when you spawn, lose it when you attack or alt attack; shouldn't taunt kill in god mode either.)
It all started on the map mlp_hearths_warming_cabinv2. A blue heavy was waiting outside of red spawn, on top of a fire place, spinning his mini-gun, awaiting anyone to leave though that doorway to kill them. (There is another doorway where players can exit and enter, but that's not the point). Basically spawn camping, which is not allowed on certain type of maps. I would just air blast the heavy off, causing him to be forced down to a table (part of the map, also where the another doorway leads to) and just repeat. He would constantly say "white knight", whatever that was suppose to mean, when I air blasted him off from our spawn. The blue heavy is fully aware of the rules, but kept on doing it anyway.

Bamboozlers: Panda Carrier
I got this for Christmas by my parents, knowing that I like to solve puzzles (except crosswords or anything that requires high knowledge of many things, I'll never be able to solve those). I found it interesting it was made from Bamboo, containing facts about Bamboo.
When my sister's family was over Christmas night for a little gift exchange, I was slowly taking the puzzle apart. Trying to keep in mind how it was assembled in the process (aka reverse engineering). Apparently in the early stages of taking it apart, it basically collapsed on me.

Two-sides of the Same Coin
A long time ago, on a fan-site I went to very often, currently on a slow renovating phase, there was a member that got banned, who was very arrogant and up-tight, and would suck up to mods and admins on the site, while at the same time give others a hard time. The member in this post shall be called Alba, in reference to the character from Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth Quercus Alba (Theme: The Enemy Who Surpasses the Law).
Few years ago, Alba was a kind person, very greeting and welcoming to others. At that time, the fan-site was trying to keep fans of an online game together, during and after the game was still around. He, me, and a few others took part in a little pod casting group, which only lasted under a year.
When the game resurfaced a second time under a new company, there was disappointment in the air on all the fans. It eventually closed down again, because it was a failure. The rebirth of the game was the same as before, however worse than the original. It died in months.
After that, the pod casting died out. This is when things gone sour for everyone.

Music In a Cavern
For over a year now, I've been helping in Alpha testing a MMORPG called Antilia. It's a dream come true for me. It's a very wonderful game, especially with a wonderful community right now. The background music is good, loops perfectly, very calm, soothing, and not over the top or quickly boring - however has in the past caused me and a few others to fall sleep, I call it "Jigglypuff Music".

Arrogant Admin
In a TF2 server I regularly go to, there's an admin on there that I have no respect for. Far as I know, he likes to show off and get a little carried away with his admin powers. For instance, at times he would change the next map, despite there's a voting system for that, to a map that isn't part of the rotation. Arena_Nucleus and Arena_Well.
What really peeved me the most was that he changed it without anyone voting or having any say about it. He would even cancel a vote that is about to happen or after the vote he would change it. He always complains about a certain map that "some cannot load" and would change it instantly to a map that is out of the rotation. There is a search engine called "Google". You can look up the map and version, with any other needed keywords, and find a link that'll have that version with a download like. The map is dm_cloudsdale_b5. For some reason the server won't download and players will have to go looking for it (that's what I did, didn't hear me whining about it.)
