Let's stick with some of your first great online gaming moments that will stick with you for life.
The ps3 was my first online console, and I signed up to psn in 2008 to play call of duty 4 online. Back when it was the shit.
So playing in a random lobby these two guys on my team ask if I want to see a glitch to get out of the map. I say yes of course. We were on that map bloc, the one in chernoble. At the back of it, the opposite side to where the swimming pool was.
So anyway they tell me the glitch after following them to the spot. I have to jump up and down, spin around a few times before chucking my grenades over the wall (any guess whats going on yet?).
Next step, one of the lads go prone, lying into a corner against a barrel placed there. They tell me to jump on his back and as he stands up jump over the barrel. So I duly proceed eager to do this out of map glitch.
I jump on his back, he stands up and I jump over the barrel into the corner. Cool, didn't think I could get here before but I want to know what's next. The two lads start laughing, say "see ya" as they turn and run away.
I'm a little bit confused. So I try jumping up to get out but I'm stuck. Can't get back over the barrel. I press R2 to cook my grenade to kill myself and respawn but alas they fooled me into throwing them away.
So now I either stand stuck in a corner for the rest of the game or I quit back to the main menu. I've been proper trolled. Long before online trolling was ever a thing. Have to admit though, I had fun doing it to others after that.
Welcome to the online world.
