I have had random people do this to me. I filed a harassment report on them since it always seemed to be the same people doing it over and over to random people. i had to set myself to Busy so i could teleport since they wouldn't let me leave.

I never implied I do it to strangers. Strangers tend to overreact to pranks anyway and get very upset. I only do it to my friends, specifically my PvP friends. It's always funny when we know when someone's going to teleport 'cause they /busy right away and the rest of us get a good laugh in TS over it.
I mess with the FC house decorations in small ways and wait to see how long it takes for someone to notice
At my Free Company house we have a Tonberry lamp that I move around from time to time. I'll put it in front of doors, in the hot tub, behind the bar, etc like it moves around on its own (and of course I'd always deny knowing anything about who's moving it). When I got to share my FC member's estates I'd move him to their houses and set him up right in the entrance way and turn off their estate lights.
When bored, some people from my FC create joke alts to fool around in our garden. Usually it's the same people (and PlayStation players), so you always figure out fast who is impersonating that horryfing new character...
So one day I decided to make an extremely creepy looking male Roe alt and placed him naked and afk at the entrance of our FC garden.
Being a PC player, I don't have any recognizable name showing while examining the character (like the PSN name, I obviously don't have that). It was incedibly amusing to see one by one, every member teleporting at the FC house to admire that "majestic creation".
My bf was online at the time so he would tell me the mayhem going on in the chat with people trying to figure out who the Roe was.
They never discovered it, suspected me for a bit but decided it was too out of character of me to create some weird alt.
Til this day, it became some kind of myth. If someone mention that event, FC chat becomes lively with speculations.
Maybe he will return soon.
Occasionally when we do a full friend dungeon or something, three of us will conspire against our fourth guy :x Back when people used to actually run stuff like Wanderer's Palace normal for tomes we pulled the pudding boss only to have the healer and dps ditch out and make the warrior try to solo him :D That run ended up lasting almost the entire time because we kept screwing around and trying to kill one another lol
Pranks are for children.
