Today i was a bit bored in class, so i decided to have some fun ;D
We had a small break during class when ppl sortof went to the bathroom and talked for a bit while the teacher was busy, and i was like :ninja:
This one dood had been eating a large peice of chewable candy (not gum), and at the moment he was at the bathroom. I took some scissors and cut about 2 inches of (the peace was like 6 inches.).
He was mad, and acused every one, but no one suspected me couse ime that quiet guy whith a calculator ;D
At last i agreed to tell him who did it if he gave me the cut-off piece. >:D
He was mad lol. I was like 8)
The most common IRL pranks used at school here were on computers where people just wrote messages saying the computer was infected by a virus or formated to scare students and teachers. And of course sticking paper fishes on people's back on April Fools Day (since in French it's April Fish Day). I can't exactly remember any other prank I did, though, since school days are far behind me. Don't do anything too bad, though, especially not stuff that could put you in detention or stuff like that. :P
I changed a teacher's background image once, she was really mad :P
Glad I don't have her anymore :P
I once created a powerpoint with as only slide a printscreen of the blue screen of death on a friend's computer at school when he went to the bathroom and opened it in presentation view. He thought he lost an hour of work since he didn't save, then was very confused when a mouse cursor appeared on it when he moved the mouse :P
That's a nasty one, good job ben_g. :P
Lol, I should make a small program and send it to one of my friends telling then it is a really cool game when really it is a blue screen of death simulation :P
@alexgt now you remind me of the old prank I and some others would do in college back in 2003-04. It's well-known of course, but basically it involves taking a screenshot of the computer desktop with icons on it, turning off icons or just some of them then replacing the wallpaper with the screenshot. Then watch as people try to click certain icons and wondering why nothing happens.
Or make a folder on the desktop called pr0n. :P
Fun fact: you actually can't make a folder called 'prn' on windows
Lol really ? Is there a reason for that or is it just a joke ? I know windows doesn't let you have a . at the beginning of file names for some random reason as well.
There are some reserved folder names on windows, i don't really know why though.
The files with a. in front of it are hidden, you can enable toview them somewhere. To hide from unknowing grannies i suppose :P
Well I know that on unix systems files starting with a . are hidden, didn't know that was the case on windows though.
Incoming long story :P
I rented a studio for my studies last year and had to give it back when leaving of course. So yeah, that lady from the renting office comes for the inventory and starts being annoying about little things (like limestone, not my fault if your water isn't clean :P).
She then lost her mind when she noticed my chair. Because my jeans actually made scratches on the tabletop of the chair, which doesn't prevent using the chair at all, it's just ugly. She was all like "well, I'm so going to keep 17€ from your caution", expecting my father and I to be like "noooes, 17 €, we'll have to sell Life Is Strange back to keep the bank account in positive" or something. But instead I asked it that was the price for a new chair, she said yes, so I asked if I could bring the chair at my parents' house then if she's going to replace it anyways.
She was like wtf are you saying :P
But she stammered out something like "yeah, why not, whatever" and focused back on the inventory.
When the inventory is done, we all put our vests on, she takes her bag, my father takes nothing, I take the chair :P
And she's like "wait, are you really taking it ?" like she thought I was joking. I ask back "are you going to keep 17€ ?" and she says yes, still stammering, so I say yes too and go out of the room with the chair in my hands :P
Best end of story ever: they did not retain 17€ and she never noticed that the bed's cross-beam was cut in half, screwed together back and too short for the bed frame in use :trollface:
That gave me a good laugh. :P
Lol that is pretty good :P
Today I used a remote desktop app to play Mozart on my PC while I was at school (My mother freaked out :P)
Haha, that reminds me of when the library computers used znc at school, we'd take over people's computers and close random windows. They didn't get what was going on and quit using the computers. :P
Nice, I did that to because we used to use lan school so I found a way to make it think I was a teacher so I control all the computers :P
The usual changing backgrounds, creating stickynotes.exe messages, spamming internet explorer links and dropping batch files in startup folder of laptops and user accounts that hadn't logged off.
I should have that batch file somewhere on my flash disk. It would terminate explorer.exe and display a leet-encoded message in notepad and I believe I made a variant that would play rickroll.
Startup folders are fun.
One time i messed with bios and made the pc unable to connact to the local network (no network = no login). The ITteem at my school had a hard time figuring out what was wrong with it. XD (They tried sticking wierd ethernet-like [debug?] cables into it <_< Idk what they where trying to do)
And don't let me get started with all the trolls i did to ppl on calculators XD
(I think its time to rollout the endless zstart reboot loop :D again)

Sadly on school computers the startup folder is blocked <_<
Our C-drives were blocked from access, but you could access them via /COMPUTERNAME/C. Laptops weren't blocked though.
I will try it but our school gave us chromebooks so we don't use the PCs anymore <_<
Reminds me back in around 2008 or 2009, we were learning C# and one of the first functions we learned was Console.Beep() (https://msdn.microsoft.com/fr-fr/library/4fe3hdb1(v=vs.110).aspx), and around the same time I discovered the existence of PSExec (https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/psexec.aspx). Every computer in the lab had the same password to login locally (that you need additionally to your Novell password), so I had the power to run stuff on every computer remotely...
So yep, the Super Mario theme on the PC speakers of 30 computers at the same time.
Well I immediately stopped it after it annoyed someone after the first beep, but still... I felt so powerful that day. And evil. Also me and my friends routinely doing pranks, remotely killing and creating new processes in front of each other, starting the most instances of Notepad possible before the CPU, memory and GPU couldn't take it anymore, etc... That was pretty fun, boy we did so much pranks and so many computers suffered due to them xD
I am afraid if I did that our computers would blow up <_< (it takes like 5 min for them to boot >:()
I once was trying to ssh into a chromebook, but themn realized it wasn't connected to the internet, because my frjend was blocking the wifi in another class. Great fun, indirectly stopping mischief :P
I should look at more options to abuse the network, only half a year left to do so.
(Not that I don't already know some huge security leaks :P)
I've never trolled in my life.

One time I trolled a website so hard a decade ago that I'm still banned there.
Wow Adriweb I recall seeing that picture somewhere and laughing hard IRL when I first did.

Now to be fair, the bans were by me and often ended after a year, but most of them were back when I still banned in a particularly arbitrary way. :P
The real question now is if the current bans would still stand if I still ran the said site :P
That said, this topic is more about real-life "trolling" than online. I would say that IRL, pranking would apply more, though.
So I appear to have missed most of the previous page when I last replied here >.<

Fun fact, back in the days, on YOutube when you tried to post disallowed content, instead of saying COmment Posted it reverted back to Post and you couldn't copy paste your lost text.
B ut that's not the problem: The problem is that Youtube actually censored random words often used in 911/religion debates, and what wouldn't make it through the comments was quite arbitrary and random. In other words, if you wanted to post a long comment there (back when everyone still did it instead of ignoring comments), if it was in response to a controversial thing then there were big chances that you have to try like 10 times to post your comment, removing stuff that possibly don't get through in a trial and error fashion. It was so annoying. It would be like if on CodeWalrus we decided to redirect any post submission attempt to an error whenever a post included "Nspire", "crap" and "god", but still made it through if they included "TI-84+", "s***" or "jesus". I think some combinations of words also didn't make it through, and of course URLs didn't either.
Also ROLF
@Hayleia I just read your post XD. I don't know how I missed it the first time around.
aeTIos suggested me to put this up here (it's also in Board and IRC rules, where I also offtopicly explain the german system for marks)...
A year ago, in grade 10 we wrote a small test about HTML, where we were supposed to make a small website with a few elements like buttons and stuff which we learned. It had nothing to do with JS.
Anyway, I put a JS in to give the button a function >:D
Well, it called an infinite alert loop. The teacher told me she had to restart her computer because she opened it with Internet Explorer (she didn't thought of task manager) - although I always told her to open MY websites with Firefox since I'm pissed off with IE.
Well, since it was a test, she gave me a 1-, because the rest was perfect. Worth it :P
We had to create a maze with hs computer science. The original assignment was to update a cty 'alpha' version they made. Since i was disgusted by it (the code was messy and bad, it used different images for each hall) i just remade the whole thing in 3D with Three.js. We worked in groups but i was the best programmer so i just did it all. I got a 9/10 while the rest only got an 8/10 (higher is better here) :trollface:
This isn't really a prank but I was having and airsoft war with one of my friends and I told him not to go on any of the roofs or I would put my gun on full auto, he of course could not resist and went on the roof. I found him on the roof, then he found out I am a very honest man :P
The only thing that a sane person would do that I do to my friends is that I change the language on their Nspires. Usually to Chinese, so I can read it, so now their file system has nspire manuals in random languages.
Lol, yeah but my friends do not have calcs <_<
Lol p4nix. I don't think the score would have been as good if everybody in the class did the same prank, though. :P
Also Cumred I tend to not like team projects because either other people just talk and do nothing, or I have troubles learning and keeping up with teamates. >.<
I remember I made this (https://www.omnimaga.org/humor-and-jokes/an-evil-program/), which I would put on people's calcs and lock them with :P
Nice, I just got into the computer lab before anyone got out of lunch and flipped all the screens with Ctrl+Alt+DownArrow and waited for people to trickle in :P
(THey had trouble figuring it out and they had to call the IT guy xD)
Just a minute ago, I made sure the audio on a school laptop was on full and the wifi connected, then, I added the following to HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Microsoft/Windows/Run (run it in cmd ;P):
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" goo.gl/QMET
I'll be just 10 meters down the hall the next two hours.
EDIT: did a second one with Dirt On Me
EDIT 2: Forgot to mention the first one went off during the second half of class, but was unfortunately ruined because of YouTube's ads.
Reliable intel told me that the laptops were not used after the end of class.
I went in the computer lab and installed SP1 on all the computers w/out the district's permission so no one could use the computers for a day.
I also logged into the local admin account on our GST BOCES district computers, which landed me in detention...
Everyone in my school already knows how to flip screens, but nobody knows that holding [Alt]+[F4] closes all your pages.... :trollface:
A couple days ago i put some guys coke upside down on the table without the cap >.<
Bottle related...I've done that...
I used a "portable faucet" science project idea on a something-infused water bottle.
The faucet worked like this: You poke holes in the bottom, dunk the bottle in a tub of water, and put on the cover as fast as you can so that the bottle doesn't leak.
The faucet will only open when you open the cap.
So, if you happen to go to the cafeteria with it and ask someone you hate to help you open a tightly-closed bottle, and they just so happen
to be sitting down, they get a little surprise! They look like they've had an accident for the rest of the day.... :trollface:

I once made an account on Omni, a couple of months before CW, whose userpage couldn't be accessed, because the username contained a percent xD.

What about that time someone created an account the username was a non-breaking space?
Yeah that happened on CW too and we removed both accounts. :P
