Trolling Two Toxic Tryhards | GTA Online
8Two tryhards, _______MeTuC and -llllIIIllIl-, were killing randoms in a public lobby, so I decided to turn the tables a bit and mess with them. All of this was just a bit of banter, though that doesn't change the fact that they take this game extremely seriously. Not as eventful as what I have coming up, but still a funny encounter nonetheless.
Tryhards like these tend to mask their names to look like a barcode, or use several underscores, to make themselves more difficult to identify. These are their means of trying to escape any repercussions of acting toxic in a video game. Despite this, I was still able to find them both.
The barcode doesn't have any spaces in his name. The hyphen "-" on both sides of his name have been spaced apart here as YouTube automatically draws a line though the text whenever a word or sentence is surrounded by two of these symbols.

The trolling starts at 6:09. These two tryhards were both in the same helicopter when I killed them both. This isn't stated in the video, but you can clearly see this from me looking at the map via the pause menu. The opportunity couldn't have presented itself any better than it did here. The text chat jumps ahead slightly at 10:33 as it took these tryhards a while to take the bait (they were too busy EWOing while fighting other players).
I did find it funny how they were trying to tell me that kills with the Orbital Cannon don't mean anything (which is true, though I was fooling around in this video), only to proceed to wait outside my facility for about 10 minutes, in an attempt to get their kills back, with no pay-off. I haven't taken PvP seriously in this game in at least a decade, long before a lot of these weaponized vehicles and other PvP crutches were added to this game. Plus, these two tryhards weren't exactly good at PvP themselves since they were constantly EWOing (Easy Way Out; to kill your own character in-game to avoid being killed by other players). These two constantly dying (pay attention to the kill feed) gave that away, plus a few other randoms were calling them out for constantly EWOing. Resorting to cheap tactics to get kills doesn't mean that one is skilled at PvP. Like I said, I haven't taken PvP seriously in this game for a very long time and was just fooling around with these two tryhards who obviously take this game very seriously.
The other randoms in the text chat were chipping away at these two tryhards, too. They didn't give me any issues, so that's a plus.
Post-BattlEye GTA Online does have its fair share of performance issues, hence the lag and crash that I had encountered upon trying to use the Orbital Cannon. I highly doubt that my game crashing was the result of either of them using a mod menu. From looking at the text chat, they seem like they could barely operate a keyboard properly, let alone a mod menu. Their behaviour in this lobby was unacceptable, and thus they should be named and shamed.
Please refrain from sending hate to anyone in the video, even if they are acting foolish. If they want to project their negativity onto others, then it's their problem.
