Hey, what's the lowest, dirtiest, downright meanest thing you've
seen or thought of for a decker to get revenge on someone, and
what was the reason for wanting revenge? :)

In the movie Hackers, my favorite was making the head of the anti-hackers
security whosit officially dead ... The reason? a bet (to see who could
screw over said person the most.). ("I'm sorry, our records show that
you are deceased.")

No no no! Flagging him as deceased was _nothing_. Putting his office
phone number on a XXX personals site was way meaner.

I don't know, I keep thinking that "Death is the Easy Way Out." Granted,
everything else they did to him was "Not Nice(TM)" either.

Hmmm....thinking about this one a bit ... I do seem to recall the argum...er,
uh, discussion that happened once where the one mage at the game thought he
was all invulnerable and voiced such, whereas the decker said something to the
degree of "..oh really..?"

Please note, everyone was currently at a seedier bar with a known reputation
for fixers, johnsons, runners, bounty hunters....

The mage said something about "before you could do anything to me, I'd have
you blasted away..."

The decker replied by some silent action, standing up, and shouting at the top
of his lungs..."10 MILLION NUYEN FOR *HIS* (pointing directly) HEAD ON A
PLATTER!!!"

The sheer ensuing moments of terror and fear that followed afterwards were
well worth the moment...

-K (what was that about decker's just not being worth anything???)

I've seen two very dirty tricks played.

First, a character decker got irritated at the mage (who was hitting on
my female character). It must have been a jealousy thing, because the
mage was pulled over later by Lone Star and identified as a known drug
dealer. He was subjected to a full body cavity search, had most of his
stuff taken away, etc, etc. Luckily for the mage, the decker wasn't the
spiteful type, so Lone Star eventually became aware of their "mix-up"
and released him.

The second (Teeg, you listening? ;) ) was when a spurned decker got into
the object of her affection's medical records and changed them so that
test results were different. The doctor called the poor troll into his
office to inform him that he wasn't a troll, that in fact he was a dwarf
with gigantism...

Not decker- related, but I keep thinking of Problem Child 2, where
Junior switches LaWanda's pre-marital blood test sample with that of a
rabid dog...

That was cute, but my favorite (and just happens to be doable by
deckers), was when junior switched clipboards so LaWanda got a nose job
instead of what she was in the hospital for (rabies vaccine?)...

*Pictures a politician pushing a reputaion for honesty in the hospital
for routine surgery when a decker hacks the hospital records and instead
schedules him for a nose job (6" Nose) then schedules a press conference,
in his (the politician's) room, for just about when he (the politician)
wakes up.* :)

I once had a decker hack into this one players files(he had a fake sin)
and make it where his files said he was a troll with a pigs head. the
troll didnt liek that much:"SIr, can a please see your license? this
does not look like you(shows him screen of pig headed troll)" What the
FRAG?" later that night the decer was hospitalized. But the other
players had a good laugh.

I remember that. later Op told me that he was thinking of having
Wray (the decker from above) set up the ATM bit in New Orleans
so that Joe (the troll in the above bit) would have to pick up the
money in hooker drag :)

He was also thinking of having her set Joe up for HRT (hormone
replacement therapy, which is basically giving guys estrogen
pills/shots/etc when they prepare for getting a sex change) among
other things. I recall one trick he mentioned considering involved
giving Joe a bottle of Viagra for a wedding present for when he and
Fae got married, only switching the Viagra with saltpeter.

That was Quicksilver (QKS...wonder whatever happened to him?) and a mage named
Bleys. The girl they were both chasing? Jett, of course. In her pre-ghostie
days. :) What is it about chicks with blue hair that get all the attention?

Perhaps it's not the hair but rather the choice of sigs? :)
