Wow.. People are complete idiots. If only they would realize how good they could actually be if they dedicated some brain cells from douchebaggery to something PRODUCTIVE.
My story was from WoW. My girlfriend and I rolled level one alts, picked a lowbie, and /followed them. The reactions were ridiculous, and I really wish I would have take a shot of them.
Also, make a level 1 orc on an RP or pve server, run it to the zepp, take it to stv, run it all the way into westfall, and punch the FM over and over until there are so many birds no one can click the FM to take off. For added fun have a lvl1 alt parked nearby to switch over and partake in the exchange on the other side.

EvE-Onliine, being a spy and working against a bob pet alliance. I sound a lot like one of the (Australian) FCs, so when all the Yanks were on I went on TS and posed as him. I got a gate camp going and started moving stuff out of the corp hanger, that I had spent months gaining high level access to, into waiting friendly haulers whilst they were all busy.
Eve is all about spying and sabotage.

Yeah. It's got a close graveyard, it's a major hub for flight points (I imagine people confined to leveling in Azeroth set it as their hearth, unless they get a portal to Shat) - it's the perfect spot for such nonsense. :P
Wait, I haven't played WoW in forever and I've never seen that...what happens when you punch the FM? He spawns a griffon to fight for him or something?
In Phantasy Star Universe, you could gift-wrap random items and drop them in-game: they would appear as a wrapped package described as "Present" and the guy who picked them up would not know what they were until he opened it up.
I once gift-wrapped a bunch of trash crafting items, created a red-and-white alt named "SANTA BOT," and ran around random instances dropping them and yelling, "HO HO HO MERRY CHRISTMAS!" before running away. I got more than a few "WTFs" and "LOLs."
Another time, I created a short, fat, yellow robot and went around dropping single coins (meseta) and pickin them back up while spamming "WAKKA WAKKA WAKKA WAKKA"
I used to have a friend (that was a dickhead so he isnt a friend anymore) that told me his girlfriend came in while he was playing nintendo that he could do anything to her.
He took her to the bedroom, tied her to the bed and went back out to the loungeroom and played nintendo for 2 hours.
When I was playing WoW I was in a raiding guild that instanced every other day. On the off days I would farm low level instances for cloth and leather to pass the time and generally goof off.
I had a major pet peeve that everyone in my guild knew about, I hated having mail in my mailbox during a raid. I don't know why it bugged me so much it just did. Some people would mess with me and I would get a laugh out of it, but there was one guy who was a repeat offender that would always send me mail right before a raid. If you've never played wow, if you send mail with an item it takes about an hour to arrive in the mailbox.
After about a week of getting vendor trash from him 1 hour after the raid started I decided I had enough and it was time for pay back. For weeks I had been stockpiling linen on an alt that I was going to train tailoring in. While it isn't that expensive at the time it wasn't complete trash either. I unstacked all that I had and massmailed about 500 pieces of linen to him. Needless to say when he opened his mail after the raid he chuckled at first but when he realized how much I sent him he was a little mad. He clicked open all and completely crashed his UI. He never sent me another piece of mail during a raid though, no one else did either. It took way too much time to get going, about an hour of sending mail. In the end though I thought it was pretty funny and after he calmed down we had a good laugh about it.

In Asheron's Call, when you died, you accrued Vitae penalties which made you weaker until you worked them off by gaining XP. I was part of a guild called Vitae Rising, and we generally did dopey shit along with actual questing and such. Two awesome things that I remember happening:
One is that there was a White Rabbit - similar to the one of Monty Python fame that can just RUIN people. We, of course, trained it back to nearby towns pretty frequently. This took many deaths on our part, but was much fun.
Second, is that at one point, we crowned a new leader of our monarchy (like a guild, but with experience bonuses to the people on the upper echelons), and we did it in kind of a flowery RP way. Well, a couple of our members had left recently over a disagreement, and during the ceremony, they showed up at the very edge of our radar and one-hit killed our new monarch with a combination of severly game-breaking buffs, debuffs, and archery skills.
I wasn't there for the second, but I did read about it - I'll see if I can dig it up.
[EDIT: Cannot find, but as a third awesome thing - my character was named Sal Monella and I ran around giving cooked eggs to everyone.]

Let's face it, it's also because we're a little fat.

Yeah, but we all know what happened with the Pax Romana.
Back on topic, I never really played WoW that much. My only MMO experience was a short stint with EVE, I'm assuming you guys don't get the kind of griefing we do?
I never knew EvE was like that, it almost sounds like its own universe. Still I don't think I could play it. Way too much griefing and endless farming.
I had a few pranks I would pull in WoW that always gave me a chuckle.
First is the classic "Rhaevos pickpockets you for 38 silver." That never got old because someone would always fall for it. I think my best time was right before fighting Razorgore and we brought along a new raider with us who never heard of the joke. Everyone else was all :roll: at it, but this new person thought I was really stealing their money. It was a good laugh, but our raid leader asked me to stop and explain the joke :P
Another good one that I never dod, but heard of it was a really interesting way to grief someone in your faction. There are some places in the game where you can jump off from very high falls and still live, such as the zeplin approaching the Undercity. The way fall damage works is percentage based, so a fall that will kill a player with 50 health will kill a player with 10,000 health. The trick is, it is based on TOTAL health.
So what would happen is that a priest would cast Power Word: Fortitude (increases max health, but doesn't heal) on a player right as they jump off and they would be somewhere around 90% from the buff. Naturally when they land, they take the pecentage based fall damage and die.
My favorite prank that I pulled many times really pissed people off. A long time ago, warriors could fall from almost any height and never die. This is because we have a move called Defensive Stance that reduces all damage by 10%. Naturally fall damage was also reduced, so I would not die from a serious fall.
Well, one night on our way to Molten Core, I told everyone it is faster to just fall down the edge onto the chain instead of running all the way down. Everyone alse thought it was impossible and that they would die and have to repair (if you die, your gear is damaged 10%). I however said it was completely safe and jumped off and landed only taking 90% damage.
Eveyone around was all, oh cool shortcut, and proceeded to jump off. I got a lot of hate from that one, especially after how I explained Defensive Stance. The worst however came from people over shooting the platform and landing in the lava

Another great thing to do in WoW (I think I told this before here... did I?) is to buff people with water walking (if you're a shaman) just as they're jumping off a cliff into some water.
I pulled a few tricks with Defense Stance when I was playing Horde. I would dare people to jump off Freewind Post in Thousand Needles.
WoW has allowed me some very epic RP/ douchebaggery moments...
My roommate and I rolled up some horde and leveled them up to the lower teens. I was a Undead Rogue, he was a Blood Elf Paladin. We decided to go around and see if we could stir up some fun in some alliance areas. Managed to find our way to Goldshire, where we proceeded to RP about how fun it would be to sneak in and kill everyone. Eventually we were spotted and chased off (just and RP server, but we make it a point to be flagged most of the time).
At this point, we were rather bored and were about to log off when I decided that I wanted to go in Stormwind. I believe I was level 12 (rogue), he was level 14 (paladin). We got outside of the gates and came up with a game plan. We'd both run in, pop everything we had (for me, sprint/ evasion) and see how far we could get, while hopefully dividing up the guards between us. I made it further, being the quick bastard I was, and since his bubble didn't actually protect him for long. I managed to get all the way across the bridge and just around the corner. He made it about halfway across the bridge.
We laughed, were about to stop, but I wanted in futher. He hopped onto one of his Alliance toons and plotted us a route to take. It was, through the gate, straight past the BUSIEST part of town, down a small path between buildings, out one of the back gates, down a path, across a bridge (memory is a bit fuzzy now) and into one of the back alleys with no guards. We spent the next 2 hours (I believe) slowly corpse hopping our way to our destination. My friend has a picture of himself bubbled, surround by guards spitting on that commander or whoever that stands just inside of town, and a ton of alliance watching.
We ended up making it to the back alley eventually, I stealthed (level 12 stealth is NOTHING) and went to the upstairs part of an empty building. I spent a good amount of time trying to find a spot to hide that would increase my chance of staying unseen. I found a spot next to a bed, behind a small table that if I stealthed and layed down at the right angle, all you could see was my torso, only if you were directly above me. My friend got bored with figuring out what to do with his severe lack of and decent hiding spot, and hopped on alliance to see what was happening. I proceeded to yell various things just to stir people up.
Apparently we had gotten atleast 3 guilds involved trying to search for us through Stormwind. My first scare was when a fully something-tiered out Dwarf Warrior ran into my room. Looked around... And left. I was laughing too hard to take a screen shot. But, after a very long time, with many people coming in where I was and NOT seeing me, I logged out. That character is still sitting in that corner, ready to "strike" again when I get bored.
My other, much shorter story isn't so much of a prank, but a creative RP guild we (again my roommate and I) decided to start up. It was a Blood-Elf only guild, and we were simply named "Dealer". Our mission was to collect and much Blood Thistle as possible, and then go around the major blood elf city (I forgot what it's called... heh.) trying to pawn off our wares.
If you don't know what Blood Thistle is, it is a plant that grows in the blood elf areas, that can only be used by blood elves. It gives a small buff for awhile, and when it wears off you have a withdrawl and you take some negatives.
It was a pretty RP heavy area at the time, and we met all sorts of responses. From the snooty guys who were "too good for such ignorant things." To a group of people who ended up really liking our RP and buying a ton of it off us for a rather high price (especially since you can get it anywhere in the starting area as long as you have ANY herbalism skill). The stuff pops up everywhere. One of us just farmed it in a big circle for a few hours.
We also found a guy who liked our RP so much, he logged onto his main, left his guild, and joined ours to immediately started selling with us. We had 3 of us sitting around the city going up to people saying things like "psst... hey. Hey... you. Yeah you.. yeah.... come 'ere. You lookin for some 'thistle man? I got what you need right here." Full on drug dealing at it's finest.
Some of the highlights from it was the level 70 couple that was wandering around. One of which was a female something-or-other who's flag RSP literally said something along the lines of "she has a secret she only tells certain people." I went up to her, did my routine, asked if she wanted some " 'thistle" and her response was "Only if it is in your blood..." and then 'glared her fangs' at me. My response was simply to stealth and sprint away the opposite direction. I saw her around a ton of times that night, always down some random dark hallway. It always worked out that we'd see each other, stop, stare for a second, and I would stealth and run away again.
Funny thing is, at one point her and her other friend eventually chased me down, stopped me by surrounding me in a hallway (I called for "backup" from the other two people doing it around town with me) and staring at me for a bit. My friends arrived and stood beside me. We roleplayed out some nervousness and such, and I assumed they were going to try to roleplay out some creepy vampire scene or something that was most likely going to be rather stupid (they didn't seem to be the best rp-ers). But, I shit you not, the guy that was with her asked for our prices. Then he bought a few "hits" and they went on their way. It was quite epic at the time.
My favorite one was when I read in someone RP that they were supposedly a 9 year old girl (rp-wise, that is). I sidled up and started saying "psst... psst. Little girl. Little girl, over here! Wanna try something new? You might like it." Then her "father" walked up and proceeded to roleplay out a very long lecture on how I needed to clean up and stop trying to sell to little girls. I brushed him off and told him I was "just trying to make a livin'!" and he then chased me through the city for awhile until I lost him. The best part was when I told the rest of the guild about it and they both said at the same time "YOU TRIED TO SELL TO A 9 YEAR OLD GIRL!??!" and I heard some insane laughing coming from the other room.
The whole drug-dealing RP had to have looked really funny to everyone in the city, because there was 3 of us wandering around with <Dealer> over our heads, slowly walking up near people and trying to get them to come over to us to sell our, quote-unquote, 'Shit'. This resulted in us hitting the same people up atleast 3 times (atleast, because we all seemed to have bad memorys and had a bad habit of talking to the same people over and over). This just futhered our cracked-out dealer RP, and eventually got some pretty funny responses.
I've had far much more fun getting into RP/ non-RP mischief than leveling in WoW. Which is why my main is only a 48.

Someone has already mentioned the warlock summoning people over cliffs things right? I had a warlock.
The best part was everybody dancing while waiting for them to actually load the area. A tauren ranger in my party would start doing that little shuffle dance right in front of them as they finished loading and began to fall.

(PSN: Morninglord) (Steam: Morninglord) (WiiU: Morninglord22) I like to record and toss up a lot of random gaming videos here.
A few years ago when WoW came out, I had a Priest that would sit at the end of that giant cliff with the elevators and mind-control Horde people to leap off the edge.
Back when my brother and I used to play Diablo II he had an ingenious way of stealing good items from idiots. He would sit in chat and look for good items that high level characters were wearing (in Diablo you can see avatars in chat and once you get good enough you can recognize items they are wearing by what it looks like). These avatars were also accompanied by account names. He would find a high level wearing a good item with an account name like dav1d_1988 or whatever and send them a whisper which went something like this. "Hey Dave guess who this is!!" to which they would usually respond "Do I know you", "Who is this", "Is this Mike?" or whatever and he would say no keep guessing. After they made a few guesses and named some names he would then pick one of the names and say "Yeah man this is Tommy, I just bought this account off of ebay!, come check out this awesome gear I got for cheap". They would be all excited and proceed to enter into a private server with him and he would show them all of his gear, sometimes even trade it to them so they could use it for a minute. Then he would be like "Hey let me hold your <good item> so I can see if it works with my new gear, Im probably going to get <good item> off ebay". These idiots would let him "hold" it and he would log off and hit ignore. I laughed every time.

There is an instance in wow, can't remember it's name, all trollish and shit. Anyway, in one of the fights the main tank can get mind controlled and turn on you or something like that. All I remember is that this fully epiced out guy (that I used to live with and didn't like very much) can get mind controlled.
I was the guild Warlock leader, and we had our own chat channel and everything. My rule was law.
The first time he got mind controlled I cast a spell on him to see what would happen. the guild leader (my friend) was all "Alright, who did that?" but nobody said anything so he let it drop, but warned that he would be "watching for the warlock who did that" if it happened again.
The second time it happened I typed "Everyone all your dots and debuffs, right now." in the warlock chat channel.
Like the faithful lacky's they were, everybody threw on everything, and I got that level 60 warlock spell that does 3000 damage after one second on there, since when mind controlled by an npc you count as one.
Since we all cast, the guild leader couldn't single anyone out, so he did nothing. I did tell them not do it again though, but I like that this asshole was sweating out a possible 3000 damage for the 15 or so seconds of the mind control, hoping someone would dispell it.
He didn't die of course, our dispellers were too good for that. Dammit.

I have an Orb of Deception (disguises you as the opposing faction) on my warrior and I always happen to carry it on my in case i want to have a little fun with people. Most people know what it is or can tell you are alliance by your flag, but just as many people do not.
What I like to do is go do Stormwind or Ironforge and start talking in Local Defense chat that there is level 60 orc running around. Many people would "hunt" for me and I would egg then on. I tried my best to only let people see me from my distance so that they could see I was an orc, but before they could target me and see my faction.
The best part about that though is how many low level players would try and chase me or /spit on me. I even get some rogues every once in a while that try to stealth behind me to Backstab or something. I also like it when said people tell everyone that the "orc" is cheating because he cannot be attacked lol.
Another good one that can't be done anymore was kiting the Servants from Blasted Lands to SW or IF and let the chaos commence. The Servants were invincible unless you killed their special stone.

I'm a fairly nice person in WoW most of the time, but occasionally I'll drop an infernal on the Darkmoon Faire or involve some players in a ritual of doom (Doomguard's warstomp kills level 10s really quickly it turns out). My friend and I took over the small horde village in Thousand Needles once. We only had one high level warlock show up to fight us... he kept jumping off the cliff to get away from me though
One of the best pranks I've ever heard of though was posted on the Warlock forums a while back. This warlock was in Nagrand when she got a message from a 60 something rogue in Shattrath (a couple minutes ride from any place in Nagrand) demanding a summon.
The warlock gets two other helpful level 70 players to help with the portal. They all fly out to one of the floating rocks in the twisting nether off Nagrand and then summon the rogue. The rogue shows up, the warlock drops an infernal, and then everyone flies off... except for the rogue who can't use flying mounts yet. Once a certain distance is reached infernals will break enslavement and become hostile to anyone standing nearby. The rogue could either try to fight the infernal or jump to his doom, and judging by how fast he died he probably jumped
--edit--
Oh yeah, this is more of an unintentional thing, but it always seems like I would wipe my party when mind controlled by the banshee boss in UD Strat.
Most of the time it's just because the group didn't pull her back far enough from the other mobs, and I end up casting howl of terror under mind control and fear my entire party into the enemies. I've wiped out my entire party and been dragged back to the banshee's starting position still under mind control... then she had me kill my felhunter

The Orb of Deception has been around since the beginning, I figured it would be an old joke by now, but the new races have revived this prank! I have a lv 70 Draenei shaman and about two months ago I was able to procure an Orb on the auction house for a relatively cheap price. I decided to take my new toy to Goldshire and pester the newbies.
So I turn myself into a Blood Elf (male) and run around using the old [Orcish]: kek routine. I figured I might get a laugh or two, but instead I got a small entourage of low level newbies who were spitting on me and taunting me. I figured time was running low so I said in /say "Want to see my next trick?" and *poof* I was a Draenei again.
People were actually shocked, but what sent me tumbling out of my chair was when one of them literally said: "I feel so stupid!" I could almost see this guy banging his face on the desk...

For added fun have a lvl1 alt parked nearby to switch over and partake in the exchange on the other side.

I had a major pet peeve that everyone in my guild knew about, I hated having mail in my mailbox during a raid. I don't know why it bugged me so much it just did.

If you've never played wow, if you send mail with an item it takes about an hour to arrive in the mailbox.
After about a week of getting vendor trash from him 1 hour after the raid started I decided I had enough and it was time for pay back.

Needs more uncalled for statements.
... you're right.
One is that there was a White Rabbit - similar to the one of Monty Python fame that can just RUIN people. We, of course, trained it back to nearby towns pretty frequently. This took many deaths on our part, but was much fun.
Second, is that at one point, we crowned a new leader of our monarchy (like a guild, but with experience bonuses to the people on the upper echelons), and we did it in kind of a flowery RP way. Well, a couple of our members had left recently over a disagreement, and during the ceremony, they showed up at the very edge of our radar and one-hit killed our new monarch with a combination of severly game-breaking buffs, debuffs, and archery skills.

Back on topic, I never really played WoW that much. My only MMO experience was a short stint with EVE, I'm assuming you guys don't get the kind of griefing we do?
I never knew EvE was like that, it almost sounds like its own universe. Still I don't think I could play it. Way too much griefing and endless farming.
I had a few pranks I would pull in WoW that always gave me a chuckle.
First is the classic "Rhaevos pickpockets you for 38 silver." That never got old because someone would always fall for it. I think my best time was right before fighting Razorgore and we brought along a new raider with us who never heard of the joke. Everyone else was all :roll: at it, but this new person thought I was really stealing their money. It was a good laugh, but our raid leader asked me to stop and explain the joke :P
Another good one that I never dod, but heard of it was a really interesting way to grief someone in your faction. There are some places in the game where you can jump off from very high falls and still live, such as the zeplin approaching the Undercity. The way fall damage works is percentage based, so a fall that will kill a player with 50 health will kill a player with 10,000 health. The trick is, it is based on TOTAL health.
So what would happen is that a priest would cast Power Word: Fortitude (increases max health, but doesn't heal) on a player right as they jump off and they would be somewhere around 90% from the buff. Naturally when they land, they take the pecentage based fall damage and die.
My favorite prank that I pulled many times really pissed people off. A long time ago, warriors could fall from almost any height and never die. This is because we have a move called Defensive Stance that reduces all damage by 10%. Naturally fall damage was also reduced, so I would not die from a serious fall.
Well, one night on our way to Molten Core, I told everyone it is faster to just fall down the edge onto the chain instead of running all the way down. Everyone alse thought it was impossible and that they would die and have to repair (if you die, your gear is damaged 10%). I however said it was completely safe and jumped off and landed only taking 90% damage.
Eveyone around was all, oh cool shortcut, and proceeded to jump off. I got a lot of hate from that one, especially after how I explained Defensive Stance. The worst however came from people over shooting the platform and landing in the lava

I pulled a few tricks with Defense Stance when I was playing Horde. I would dare people to jump off Freewind Post in Thousand Needles.
My roommate and I rolled up some horde and leveled them up to the lower teens. I was a Undead Rogue, he was a Blood Elf Paladin. We decided to go around and see if we could stir up some fun in some alliance areas. Managed to find our way to Goldshire, where we proceeded to RP about how fun it would be to sneak in and kill everyone. Eventually we were spotted and chased off (just and RP server, but we make it a point to be flagged most of the time).
At this point, we were rather bored and were about to log off when I decided that I wanted to go in Stormwind. I believe I was level 12 (rogue), he was level 14 (paladin). We got outside of the gates and came up with a game plan. We'd both run in, pop everything we had (for me, sprint/ evasion) and see how far we could get, while hopefully dividing up the guards between us. I made it further, being the quick bastard I was, and since his bubble didn't actually protect him for long. I managed to get all the way across the bridge and just around the corner. He made it about halfway across the bridge.
We laughed, were about to stop, but I wanted in futher. He hopped onto one of his Alliance toons and plotted us a route to take. It was, through the gate, straight past the BUSIEST part of town, down a small path between buildings, out one of the back gates, down a path, across a bridge (memory is a bit fuzzy now) and into one of the back alleys with no guards. We spent the next 2 hours (I believe) slowly corpse hopping our way to our destination. My friend has a picture of himself bubbled, surround by guards spitting on that commander or whoever that stands just inside of town, and a ton of alliance watching.
We ended up making it to the back alley eventually, I stealthed (level 12 stealth is NOTHING) and went to the upstairs part of an empty building. I spent a good amount of time trying to find a spot to hide that would increase my chance of staying unseen. I found a spot next to a bed, behind a small table that if I stealthed and layed down at the right angle, all you could see was my torso, only if you were directly above me. My friend got bored with figuring out what to do with his severe lack of and decent hiding spot, and hopped on alliance to see what was happening. I proceeded to yell various things just to stir people up.
Apparently we had gotten atleast 3 guilds involved trying to search for us through Stormwind. My first scare was when a fully something-tiered out Dwarf Warrior ran into my room. Looked around... And left. I was laughing too hard to take a screen shot. But, after a very long time, with many people coming in where I was and NOT seeing me, I logged out. That character is still sitting in that corner, ready to "strike" again when I get bored.
My other, much shorter story isn't so much of a prank, but a creative RP guild we (again my roommate and I) decided to start up. It was a Blood-Elf only guild, and we were simply named "Dealer". Our mission was to collect and much Blood Thistle as possible, and then go around the major blood elf city (I forgot what it's called... heh.) trying to pawn off our wares.
If you don't know what Blood Thistle is, it is a plant that grows in the blood elf areas, that can only be used by blood elves. It gives a small buff for awhile, and when it wears off you have a withdrawl and you take some negatives.
It was a pretty RP heavy area at the time, and we met all sorts of responses. From the snooty guys who were "too good for such ignorant things." To a group of people who ended up really liking our RP and buying a ton of it off us for a rather high price (especially since you can get it anywhere in the starting area as long as you have ANY herbalism skill). The stuff pops up everywhere. One of us just farmed it in a big circle for a few hours.
We also found a guy who liked our RP so much, he logged onto his main, left his guild, and joined ours to immediately started selling with us. We had 3 of us sitting around the city going up to people saying things like "psst... hey. Hey... you. Yeah you.. yeah.... come 'ere. You lookin for some 'thistle man? I got what you need right here." Full on drug dealing at it's finest.
Some of the highlights from it was the level 70 couple that was wandering around. One of which was a female something-or-other who's flag RSP literally said something along the lines of "she has a secret she only tells certain people." I went up to her, did my routine, asked if she wanted some " 'thistle" and her response was "Only if it is in your blood..." and then 'glared her fangs' at me. My response was simply to stealth and sprint away the opposite direction. I saw her around a ton of times that night, always down some random dark hallway. It always worked out that we'd see each other, stop, stare for a second, and I would stealth and run away again.
Funny thing is, at one point her and her other friend eventually chased me down, stopped me by surrounding me in a hallway (I called for "backup" from the other two people doing it around town with me) and staring at me for a bit. My friends arrived and stood beside me. We roleplayed out some nervousness and such, and I assumed they were going to try to roleplay out some creepy vampire scene or something that was most likely going to be rather stupid (they didn't seem to be the best rp-ers). But, I shit you not, the guy that was with her asked for our prices. Then he bought a few "hits" and they went on their way. It was quite epic at the time.
My favorite one was when I read in someone RP that they were supposedly a 9 year old girl (rp-wise, that is). I sidled up and started saying "psst... psst. Little girl. Little girl, over here! Wanna try something new? You might like it." Then her "father" walked up and proceeded to roleplay out a very long lecture on how I needed to clean up and stop trying to sell to little girls. I brushed him off and told him I was "just trying to make a livin'!" and he then chased me through the city for awhile until I lost him. The best part was when I told the rest of the guild about it and they both said at the same time "YOU TRIED TO SELL TO A 9 YEAR OLD GIRL!??!" and I heard some insane laughing coming from the other room.
The whole drug-dealing RP had to have looked really funny to everyone in the city, because there was 3 of us wandering around with <Dealer> over our heads, slowly walking up near people and trying to get them to come over to us to sell our, quote-unquote, 'Shit'. This resulted in us hitting the same people up atleast 3 times (atleast, because we all seemed to have bad memorys and had a bad habit of talking to the same people over and over). This just futhered our cracked-out dealer RP, and eventually got some pretty funny responses.
I've had far much more fun getting into RP/ non-RP mischief than leveling in WoW. Which is why my main is only a 48.
The best part was everybody dancing while waiting for them to actually load the area. A tauren ranger in my party would start doing that little shuffle dance right in front of them as they finished loading and began to fall.
I got a kick of out it every time.
Let 'em eat fucking pineapples!

I was the guild Warlock leader, and we had our own chat channel and everything. My rule was law.
The first time he got mind controlled I cast a spell on him to see what would happen. the guild leader (my friend) was all "Alright, who did that?" but nobody said anything so he let it drop, but warned that he would be "watching for the warlock who did that" if it happened again.
The second time it happened I typed "Everyone all your dots and debuffs, right now." in the warlock chat channel.
Like the faithful lacky's they were, everybody threw on everything, and I got that level 60 warlock spell that does 3000 damage after one second on there, since when mind controlled by an npc you count as one.
Since we all cast, the guild leader couldn't single anyone out, so he did nothing. I did tell them not do it again though, but I like that this asshole was sweating out a possible 3000 damage for the 15 or so seconds of the mind control, hoping someone would dispell it.
He didn't die of course, our dispellers were too good for that. Dammit.
I have an Orb of Deception (disguises you as the opposing faction) on my warrior and I always happen to carry it on my in case i want to have a little fun with people. Most people know what it is or can tell you are alliance by your flag, but just as many people do not.
What I like to do is go do Stormwind or Ironforge and start talking in Local Defense chat that there is level 60 orc running around. Many people would "hunt" for me and I would egg then on. I tried my best to only let people see me from my distance so that they could see I was an orc, but before they could target me and see my faction.
The best part about that though is how many low level players would try and chase me or /spit on me. I even get some rogues every once in a while that try to stealth behind me to Backstab or something. I also like it when said people tell everyone that the "orc" is cheating because he cannot be attacked lol.
Another good one that can't be done anymore was kiting the Servants from Blasted Lands to SW or IF and let the chaos commence. The Servants were invincible unless you killed their special stone.

One of the best pranks I've ever heard of though was posted on the Warlock forums a while back. This warlock was in Nagrand when she got a message from a 60 something rogue in Shattrath (a couple minutes ride from any place in Nagrand) demanding a summon.
The warlock gets two other helpful level 70 players to help with the portal. They all fly out to one of the floating rocks in the twisting nether off Nagrand and then summon the rogue. The rogue shows up, the warlock drops an infernal, and then everyone flies off... except for the rogue who can't use flying mounts yet. Once a certain distance is reached infernals will break enslavement and become hostile to anyone standing nearby. The rogue could either try to fight the infernal or jump to his doom, and judging by how fast he died he probably jumped
--edit--
Oh yeah, this is more of an unintentional thing, but it always seems like I would wipe my party when mind controlled by the banshee boss in UD Strat.
Most of the time it's just because the group didn't pull her back far enough from the other mobs, and I end up casting howl of terror under mind control and fear my entire party into the enemies. I've wiped out my entire party and been dragged back to the banshee's starting position still under mind control... then she had me kill my felhunter
The Orb of Deception has been around since the beginning, I figured it would be an old joke by now, but the new races have revived this prank! I have a lv 70 Draenei shaman and about two months ago I was able to procure an Orb on the auction house for a relatively cheap price. I decided to take my new toy to Goldshire and pester the newbies.
So I turn myself into a Blood Elf (male) and run around using the old [Orcish]: kek routine. I figured I might get a laugh or two, but instead I got a small entourage of low level newbies who were spitting on me and taunting me. I figured time was running low so I said in /say "Want to see my next trick?" and *poof* I was a Draenei again.
People were actually shocked, but what sent me tumbling out of my chair was when one of them literally said: "I feel so stupid!" I could almost see this guy banging his face on the desk...
