What's the most cruel thing you've ever done in a video game?

In ARK I literally spent an entire semester of college, day and night, hunting, killing and pillaging anything that moved on my server without the people knowing it was me.

Because the in game logs would show who killed you if you were killed with a weapon, I would carry around shitloads of rotten meat, sneak up to them while they slept or were walking, knock them unconscious and then force feed them spoiled meat which would kill them without the game registering me as the murderer. Then I'd take all of their shit out of their crates and not even use it, just leave it on the ground to disappear.

But I specifically would target this one tribe not caring about stealth. Sit there on my bird in the middle of the map all day, wait for the notification that they logged in and I would spend hours hunting them down and destroying everything they built. I would knock them unconscious, grappling hook them, carry them on my bird and put them in prison where I would either keep them dosed up on narcotics until they logged out or would leave them there awake with handcuffs on so they just had to sit there.

It killed the server population. Eventually I got bored so I stopped playing.

If you need to feel like a sociopath for a few hours go play Ark. The game sucks now but if you've got a group of friends playing on a private server can still be fun.
