The Most Creative Griefing Tactics We've Ever Seen- When Trolling Becomes Art

Some trolls just corpse camp. Some trolls ninja loot. But the truly legendary trolls? They turn game mechanics into masterpieces of chaos. They're not just griefing - they're creating performance art with other people's frustration as the canvas.

In this episode, Boss Mode celebrates (and condemns) the most ingenious, elaborate, and downright brilliant griefing tactics in MMO history. These aren't your everyday trolls. These are the players who studied the game mechanics, found the loopholes, and weaponized them in ways developers never imagined.

What You'll Hear:

• The legendary "Funeral Raid" that shocked the World of Warcraft community
• Physics exploits that turned player bodies into weapons
• Economic warfare tactics that crashed entire server markets
• The healer who held raid groups hostage
• Architectural trolling - blocking off entire zones with player-built structures
• Social engineering scams that were too clever to even be mad about
• When creativity crosses from impressive to genuinely harmful

From EVE Online's elaborate corporate espionage to Minecraft griefers who built monuments to chaos, this episode covers the full spectrum of creative destruction. Some of these stories will make you laugh. Some will make you angry. All of them will make you think "wait, you can DO that?"
