My house keeps getting egged, what do I do? - General

Egg yourself first, then they'll think someone already did it and won't.

Sit at your window with an airsoft gun, have a infrared lens attached and raise a little hell.

[QUOTE=Cintroval;26767959]If you right-click an image and "Copy image URL to clipboard" then just post it in BBcode here, everyone who downloads the picture in their browser to view it takes up a lot of that site's bandwidth. Upload it to imageshack or something, you lazy dick. Hotlinking is not nice.[/QUOTE] You're fucking stupid and have know idea what your talking about. [editline]now[/editline] Weather or not this is on an image hosting site or found somewhere on the web it is the same for load time and bandwidth. You don't know jack JB avatar! [editline]now[/editline] Also I think what your trying to say is that the site that the image is located at will have bandwidth being used. WHO GIVES A FUCK!

Get a world war two rifle with a bayonet and charge at them screaming in Russian and run them through.

kill all chickens in the area to prevent them from laying eggs no more eggs to egg your eggscellent house with

Call the Police.

Be a ninja and follow them back to their house. True story: Some idiots kept egging our house, so me and my father followed them around the neighborhood as they threw rocks at houses and egged cars and shit (this was at 11:00 at night), and walked by a man walking his dog in the process. Just as we got to his driveway (the dumb shit walked right home after throwing eggs at more houses), my father shook the kid up and made him get his mother to explain what he did, and while we were waiting, the guy we walked past comes up the driveway. It was the kid's father. The kid's reaction was priceless. Needless to say we haven't had a problem with idiot kids fucking up our property anymore.

[QUOTE=hacksore;26768508]You're fucking stupid and have know idea what your talking about.[/QUOTE] What? Are you saying that's not how hotlinking works, or that it actually doesn't take up a lot of bandwidth? First, let's examine how large the image is - a glance at its properties tell us it is approximately 75 kilobytes. Multiply that by how many unique clients will view this thread - or, more accurately, how many times it will be downloaded. I've been monitoring changes in this thread's viewers for the time it's been up, and it gets a fresh group of about 20-30 every half hour. It is entirely possible that this thread could stay on the front page for a couple days or more, because everyone wants to put in their comedy response (fuck his ass, etc). There are roughly 1000 kilobytes in a megabyte. Given that the image is downloaded 50 times per hour (roughly), and it is approximately 75 kilobytes, with some multiplication, over a two-day period that image being hotlinked here consumes 180 megabytes of bandwidth. 180 megabytes of bandwidth is a lot for a small site like the one you hotlinked from. Don't be a dick. Uploading a file to a file-sharing site takes no time at all.

Get a motion activated light and a camera.

I asked nicely and explained my reasoning as to why he should upload images to file-sharing sites and not directly link from them. You're being overly hostile. Calm down.

The only sensible option is to set up an invisible force field that will make the eggs and attackers perish before they even get near your home. Obviously.

Wait outside (i know you dont want to but its solves it fast) in a place they would pass. then when you catch them grab them and yell " IF YOU FUCKING EGG MY HOUSE AGAIN ILL BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF YOU UNDERSTAND?"......problem solved

Egg your own house every night. Then what are they going to do? [b]Edit:[/b] Reading is overrated.

There used to be a kid who would tag our house with spray paint. Then one day I waited in the bushes and shot him in the ass with a paintball gun a couple times when he came around one night. Never had to clean another garage door after that.

Do nothing, eventually they will get bored and leave you alone. Alternatively set up a video camera.

at the usual time of there arrival hide in nearby shrubbery with a ghillie suit/turkey hunting suit (camo) and have a unloaded shotgun with you or if you dont have one of thoes then just take a kitchen knife and when they pop in yell "GET THE FUCK OUT YOU FAGGOTASS COCKSUCKERS" or something like that, they'll run, they are both probably 14 year olds.

Wait in a bush or something with your dad (if he's cool with it) across the street at night, and if you hear the little shits, slowly come out of the bushes and yell at them.

Get a pellet gun with a ZF on it. Setup motion sensing cameras on street. Monitor while posting on facepunch. Or if you want to be cool, an automatic bb gun with a tactical sight on it. Wait at night and ambush them from the bushes until they cry. Kick them in the knees and walk away. [img]http://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0035/2802/files/tf7.jpg?1264144327[/img]

Buy a ghillie suit, stand in a bush with a paintball gun/airsoft whatever is around. Then, shoot them. Aim for the body, you don't want to take out any eyes.

Some cunt threw a brick threw my window, i set up cameras after it was fixed and caught the bastard, now i'm pressing charges. :buddy::buddy::buddy:
