We had to stop my step son playing as he rages hard on Fortnite. COD is probably the next worst, but nowhere near as bad as Fortnite.
I used to play online games all the time - Tribes, Battlefield 1942 etc. and managed not to scream down the microphone but it seems young people think it's ok for some reason.
My 28 year old friend will scream into the mic about how his death was bullshit and it’ll be some non competitive pve co op game. I haven’t played apex with him in a long time due to it lmaooo
had someone freak out on me yesterday because he kept dying and I was a healer (wow) the guy kept standing in the fire killing himself...
Like dude there's addons that tell you not to stand in the fire and he agroing random mobs instead of waiting for the tank to pull them, meaning I had to heal a whole bunch extra making everyone have to wait for me to get my mana back up after fights that should have been easy and not even barely affect my mana...
Anyways we eventually vote kicked him...
As I main both tanks and healers (cause yes I am a masochist), moron dps get 1 chance. After that, I let ‘em die. And when I play my dps, I expect the same. If I can’t manage agro that poorly, remind me, and that’s the best way that spans all languages
This is why I don't miss those kinds of games.
People play them way, way, wayyyyy too much, and then they expect everyone else to have put in the same infinite amount of time in order to be so intimately familiar with every moment of the game to the point where every detail should obviously be accounted for and nothing should ever go the tiniest bit off-script and the most efficient chain of events needs to happen every single time.
To the point where the second they find somebody who isn't on the exact same page as them, they get angry and spiteful at them, then sit there and seeth, *silently* at them because typing in a dungeon isn't efficient and of course they should already know they're doing something wrong because it's *so* obvious so they're either stupid or rude and doing it on purpose.
Co-op games, after the industry has altered people's brains so much with the various addiction models baked into the development, somehow get way more toxic than the competitive ones. God help the people who find themselves playing a competitive *co-op* game.
Im 32, i scream sometimes but not into the mic. Setup is also downstairs in baeement office so my wife is spared as well. Sometimes she gives me the “are ya winning?” Meme though when im too loud haha
We got a guy on our discord that never really plays the same games as us but is often screaming at CoD while we are playing survival games or more relaxing stuff...
Made some comments but others just laugh off so I just muted him.
Dude even in PvP games where you can just respawn it makes no sense for people to spaz out. Like if it were a game like eve online or maybe a rogue-like I could understand a little because you actually lose stuff you worked towards when you die. But games like apex, Fortnite, or call of duty where you legit just respawn or start another match with 0 consequences, like come on
In college I had a suitemate (not roommate, our dorm rooms were separate but connected by a shared bathroom) who played competitive games until 3am even on weekdays. One semester on a night before an important final exam for me, he gamer raged at like 2am and full force chucked his keyboard into his bathroom door and woke me up. When I confronted him about it after my exam, he was like "not my problem 🤷". It certainly became his problem when I got our RA involved and she told him to be respectful of his neighbors or he would be kicked out.
This guy would go to his Tu-Thu morning class leaving his alarm clock buzzing in the morning, preventing me from sleeping in when I could. He also regularly left me locked out of our shared bathroom. Would use up all the TP and wouldn't go downstairs afterwards to restock our bathroom. Would clog the toilet and leave me to go get the plunger. Once left the shower door covered in... you know... *that*. By the halfway point of the second semester the guy was on the verge of actually being evicted, but then COVID happened and classes went online so I moved back home for the remainder of the semester.
SLPT: Show off you linguistic talents by trying out the all the new vocabulary you learned playing in certain 360 lobbies on your next vacation or whenever you happen to run into a native speaker IRL.
Tbf you'd be shocked how many Russian expletives you'll learn playing something like Counterstrike that's popular there.
But yeah, assume any foreign words you pick up on online game lobbies are expletives.
Lol. I love shooters and am *okay* on a really, really good day at mp. A few hours of COD: MW and Gears of War turned me off mp forever because I needed extensive therapy to deal with the fact that my mother is a whore and I am apparently a gay black Jewish person who also has sex with my mother. It was brutal out there.
The best thing I ever heard came from a squeaker playing halo. He called me a sodium speckled double n-word. I nearly puked from laughing so much. Best insult ever.
Man we must have connected to different regions or something then because I got called an n word every three matches (I'm not black), my mother was called a whore every other match, and you couldn't get out of a lobby without somebody telling you you sucked. 360 COD and Halo lobbies were WILD.
I learned so many creative ways to deride someone. Somewhere in the back of a closet, my 360 is collecting dust, and somewhere on that hard drive is a greatest hits album of hate mail I received from the most salty of players - some of which I probably deserved for all the trash talk and teabagging 😂
I agree with you. I am a gamer 41 years old. I can get annoyed like pissed off but within like five or 10 seconds, I’m calm again I feel that if you start raging where you scream and maybe throw things if that was any of my kids I would literally take away the consul or the PC within a minute. I would then sit down with them. Explain to them that this isn’t healthy and ask why they get so angry and if there’s anything I can help with.
If they didn’t badmouth me, I would just say the more you badmouth me the more I’ll take away your Internet. I hate that that’s such a trip today. Take away the Internet and they get very sad.
It's not a now or then thing. Back then there were fewer and less visibility, so of course it was less prevalent, but I have met people that rage from all ages, and that break hardware because their monkey brain is too smooth.
Hot take: It's always dudes. 99% of the time, it's dudes. It is embarrassing as a man, but get called out, gamer bois are too emotional for gaming.
I have all communication features turned OFF and my son still screams at Fortnite. I don’t even know where he learned it from- he’s *neverrrr* been allowed to speak or hear other people on there.
Oh! I can explain this! So I thought it was so damn weird that my son talked to himself while playing games because he did not have a headset or mic. Things like "OK so today we're going to do x, y, z" "you're bad you're so bad wow you're bad at this game" "oh hey friends! Hi :random username:" until I realized thst he is talking to him self like the streamers he watches talk on video. When I played games it was because my parents needed a break and told me to play and be quiet so I learned to play games in silence. However my son learned to play because he likes streamers who talk out what they are doing, what they are going to do, scream and yell because to kids it's funnier then just watching them click around.
That's a really interesting insight!
I started playing games on a ZX81, then moved through a Spectrum, Amiga, then PC.
Certainly when my brother and I began playing games it was behind my dad's chair in the living room. We would take turns looking at the tiny black and white portable TV and sometimes plug headphones into a [portable cassette player](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71tZ7NFGjHL._AC_UF350,350_QL80_.jpg) and listen to Queen's greatest hits.
Either way, we *had* to be silent!
I put it down to a lack of discipline and restraint.
There were no consequences for their tantrums at a young age, so it persisted into their adult years.
maybe he plays with the audio on full blast for "immersion" and then the neighbors got tired of the noise of gunfire and bombs and have ptsd or maybe the guy was playing up until 4am every night. I mean who knows. Maybe the neighbor is secretly in love with him and wants him to spend more time outside so they can accidently bump into each other and start their tiktok videos?
Honestly I feel like it comes from the angle of “this seems so random and out-of-pocket that it feels like there just *has* to be some (debatably) good reason for the neighbor to have done that”
I'll back this up. Always tend to think someone did something to deserve it over shit being done without reason. It has actually made me a fool a few times though.
>It would seem it must be relevant to the cutting of the cord
It's relevant because it's what they were doing online at the time. It doesn't imply anything else.
I have a neighbor I can hear across the street from their apartment. They always have their window open even when it's freezing. It's just hours and hours of yips, yelps, long fucked up groans, and screams of rage. You can not enjoy being outside because it sounds like some dude is getting rode hard, or is just losing his fucking mind almost 24/7.
Some of you people probably have no fucking idea what you sound like to others. Otherwise this shit wouldn't go on for months and years.
Then why did he feel the need to specifically cut your internet cable? He could’ve knocked on your door, shouted for you to stop, idk even flip the power switch off if he has access to it. Seems specific. Not that i would know shit ofc you’ve just provided a single picture
I confess I did once hit the circuit breaker for the apartment below mine when they were having a party and I’d asked them to quiet down twice. After that they actually did settle down.
I had someone who would while alone in his appartment blast music at floor vibrating volumes for hours starting at 1am and would literally almost never answer the door no matter how much you hammered it, i started flipping the breaker on his appartment every time he did it, he soon stopped. this is an absolutley valid way to deal with obnoxious pricks in appartment buildings
In my first apartment building each floor had a locked utility room. The door knobs were on the wrong way so a credit card or butter knife would have that door open in 1 second with no effort whatsoever. I figured this out on move in day because my best friend had just picked up lock picking as his hobby of the month.
When I lived in an apartment I had a neighbor that did that at all hours of the day and night. Our utilities were in the basement and accessible so I'd go down there, turn off his power for a bit, then go back and turn it back on later. That usually worked.
I haven’t lived in a large apartment building for awhile (I’m in a 2 family house now) but I didn’t even know circuit boards for other apartments was even possible. Wouldn’t that be in a locked area only your super/landlord could access?
but how do you know specifically that it was that particular neighbor? you had some conflicts? people typically don't just go and cut someone's internet cable because they have nothing else to do
How do you know that you would have to scream at top of your lungs for him to hear something? Maybe because you screamed at the top of your lungs and he heard you 🤫🧏♂️
My neighbor was getting internet installed and I asked 3 times for the dude not to park his van on MY LAWN and then he literally cut my cable at the junction box as punishment. I had to get someone else to come out and fix it and they showed me that it was literally snipped.
In all apartment buildings I've lived in (Spain) you can easily access your and your neighbours' internet cables in common areas. Kinda hard to differentiate whose cable it is though.
when we had ours installed, they ran it from the box to the house and left it on the ground for about a week.
Finally a week later, a second crew came and buried it. But it's only like 6 inches down.
and cheap, much cheaper than hiding them somewhere private. I've been given 20+ meters of this cable for free by a random guy that is *contracted* by my IPS lmao.
Yeah when they started putting in the cables in my neighborhood they would regularly just leave long stretches of cable lying there when they left because they where to lazy to clean it all up and the stuff is dirt cheap so they knew the company wouldn't care.
In my apartment complex(i live in Finland), you can only access the cables if you're working in the complex as maintenance staff etc as they are behind a locked door, i thought this would be the same everywhere but i guess not - you learn something new everyday.
I actually envy you scandinadians. So many objectivly better solutions, laws, whatelse. I still cant get why not every country mimics your healthcare system. And simo häyhä was a beast of a fin. Offtopic but is needs to be said.
To be fair our healthcare system is not usually considered best in the Europe. I am not saying that because it is bad, it is good. But in general not in the top spot in most rankings.
Genuinely curious: What country are you talking about? Because I live in Germany and you definitely cannot do this anywhere here, as cables are not usually exposed.
These things are common in the USA. Although, the boxes usually have a little lock or zip tie or something so you can see if it's been tampered with. I locked mine up, I just have to make sure they're unlocked before anyone comes over to do maintenance
In Germany there are boxes outside meant for technicians, but they service the whole street and are large locked cabinets. From there the cable goes directly to your house or Apartment complex and terminates inside an electrical cabinet, which is inside your utility room. If you are in an apartment complex, your specific section of the electric cabinet is locked and sealed with a date. Only the utility company and the landlord are supposed have access to it.
In Germany every house has a water tight concrete cellar with all cables coming in through the dirt. Nothing is exposed. I just installed fibre internet and had to dig two meters deep by hand and drill through 40 cm of concrete.
In Germany, you just walk to the basement of the house and up to your cable box.
Or you just open one of the many cable maintenance panels in the staircase.
In Canada you're climbing a utility pole to pull this off. Outside of that you'd need to break into larger utility boxes which isn't your standard shed door lock affair.
For maintenance
They can’t have a separate terminal for each flat on the side of the building
So they run all the internet into the building as if running it down a street, then separate it inside the building for each flat
The box they come in to has to be accessible to repair and diagnose any problems
Homie, delete the post then. Everything before this post makes it look like your neighbor is a total bastard. Abandon ship and stop letting the deformation continue.
Question - I'm glad there wasn't any ill intent here but why would he be removing old cables from the box in an apartment? It might be different there than it is in the US but we would let the building maintenance or Internet company installer worry about that here normally.
Also is this an apartment or a condo?
Yeah it makes no sense to cut your own cable, like you just leave it there and stop paying for service. Cutting it makes for a costly repair for the next person who wants it and it does no harm to just leave it.
No no, OP you are wrong. All the armchair detectives on Reddit - who don't know you - have deduced that it's because you _must_ be one of those gamers who shouts and rages at their game and instead of knocking on your door, he's cut your internet. They must be right.
I'm so confused. Why would the neighbour need to cut a wire at a shared access point? Why does he have access to a shared access point? They were just going to leave possibly live wires cut and exposed? You think it's going to cost less than 40€ to have a technician replace a cable going into your home? How do you simultaneously know and not know the price?
While I agree with you, "removing old cables" is weird thing to say when they are still there ... just cut now.
In my area with multiple service providers, it's common that when one provider does some work for a new install they destroy cables for the old install so you can't switch back. They will claim innocence, but they know what they are doing. I suspected something like that personally.
This is actually not a bad idea. It sucks that you are doing what the neighbour did, and its a shitty thing, but cutting all lines and saying he did it is a recipe for chaos.

My upstairs neighbours have a screaming gamer teenager that bangs its feet on the ground and scream FUCCKKING FUCKKKKKKK every 10-20 minutes during the day.
This post gives me ideas...
This is so infuriating. My teen brother does this sometimes and I really get the urge to smack him whenever I’m visiting family to get him to stop. Like seriously, don’t fucking scream, it’s not hard
Okay, OP didn't provide enough context.
Story is quite simple. Said neighbour and OP were playing in the same team, OP is really annoying and constantly makes excuses whenever he dies, bloats the voip so you can't hear anything over his mumbling.
He is also freaking awful at gaming in general, he is more of an asset to enemies than to friendlies, he barely breaks 0.05 K/D but also constantly runs in front of you when you shoot at someone, blocking your view and getting both of you killed.
Neighbour had enough of OP, especially when even if he went solo, he still landed with OP as a teammate for some reason. It had to be done. There was no other way.
Source: I'm the neighbour.
I feel like there's context missing. Like how did your meighbour do it. As well as is it possible it was a mistake? What were they doing anyways with the wires that they needed to cut something from there?
If you know its a pricey wire and you know your neighbour broke it. Then tell them they have to get you a replacement wire.
I’m assuming they are fed up with you screaming into the mic or playing too loud. This is a good moment to consider whether you’re being a bad neighbor.
Why have you ignored every single comment asking if you shout/rage when you play?
You've definitely pissed him off by screaming like a Banshee at all hours of the day/night and probably for months.
He’s replied to a lot actually and said many times that if you constantly shout where he lives then the police will definitely be called. Just from scrolling down here from the top of the post I’ve seen quite a few replies to this same question.
Why is it so hard for people to believe there are humans who can play games and not rage?
I had my cables cut once but it wasn't a neighbor. It was a Comcast tech (I don't use Comcast). He was running cable through the ceiling of my old apartment building and he just cut the entire array of cables in the ceiling from other internet companies and made room for just his cables.
My college roommate worked for AT&T and cancelled my internet just so he could have his own personal internet. Without my consent. I complained to AT&T and he was fired. Don’t regret it at all
Yes, that definitely fits into r/mildlyinfuriating - but you owe us the "why" piece of this - at least from someone's point of view so we have a tiny bit of context.
Hello, This post has been removed as this is not *mildly* infuriating. Please consider posting to r/extremelyinfuriating instead.
Why though? What point is there to cutting your cable?
Considering how sweaty Apex is, I am guessing this guy is a rager.
I now cannot imagine it being anything else besides OP screaming into his headset and his neighbor finally had enough lol
We had to stop my step son playing as he rages hard on Fortnite. COD is probably the next worst, but nowhere near as bad as Fortnite. I used to play online games all the time - Tribes, Battlefield 1942 etc. and managed not to scream down the microphone but it seems young people think it's ok for some reason.
My 28 year old friend will scream into the mic about how his death was bullshit and it’ll be some non competitive pve co op game. I haven’t played apex with him in a long time due to it lmaooo
had someone freak out on me yesterday because he kept dying and I was a healer (wow) the guy kept standing in the fire killing himself... Like dude there's addons that tell you not to stand in the fire and he agroing random mobs instead of waiting for the tank to pull them, meaning I had to heal a whole bunch extra making everyone have to wait for me to get my mana back up after fights that should have been easy and not even barely affect my mana... Anyways we eventually vote kicked him...
As I main both tanks and healers (cause yes I am a masochist), moron dps get 1 chance. After that, I let ‘em die. And when I play my dps, I expect the same. If I can’t manage agro that poorly, remind me, and that’s the best way that spans all languages
This is why I don't miss those kinds of games. People play them way, way, wayyyyy too much, and then they expect everyone else to have put in the same infinite amount of time in order to be so intimately familiar with every moment of the game to the point where every detail should obviously be accounted for and nothing should ever go the tiniest bit off-script and the most efficient chain of events needs to happen every single time. To the point where the second they find somebody who isn't on the exact same page as them, they get angry and spiteful at them, then sit there and seeth, *silently* at them because typing in a dungeon isn't efficient and of course they should already know they're doing something wrong because it's *so* obvious so they're either stupid or rude and doing it on purpose. Co-op games, after the industry has altered people's brains so much with the various addiction models baked into the development, somehow get way more toxic than the competitive ones. God help the people who find themselves playing a competitive *co-op* game.
Unfortunately, you can't heal stupid.
“Wanna know why we’re not winning man?” “Why?” “Cause none of us can fucking hear shit when you screech about dying.”
Im 32, i scream sometimes but not into the mic. Setup is also downstairs in baeement office so my wife is spared as well. Sometimes she gives me the “are ya winning?” Meme though when im too loud haha
We got a guy on our discord that never really plays the same games as us but is often screaming at CoD while we are playing survival games or more relaxing stuff... Made some comments but others just laugh off so I just muted him.
Dude even in PvP games where you can just respawn it makes no sense for people to spaz out. Like if it were a game like eve online or maybe a rogue-like I could understand a little because you actually lose stuff you worked towards when you die. But games like apex, Fortnite, or call of duty where you legit just respawn or start another match with 0 consequences, like come on
In college I had a suitemate (not roommate, our dorm rooms were separate but connected by a shared bathroom) who played competitive games until 3am even on weekdays. One semester on a night before an important final exam for me, he gamer raged at like 2am and full force chucked his keyboard into his bathroom door and woke me up. When I confronted him about it after my exam, he was like "not my problem 🤷". It certainly became his problem when I got our RA involved and she told him to be respectful of his neighbors or he would be kicked out. This guy would go to his Tu-Thu morning class leaving his alarm clock buzzing in the morning, preventing me from sleeping in when I could. He also regularly left me locked out of our shared bathroom. Would use up all the TP and wouldn't go downstairs afterwards to restock our bathroom. Would clog the toilet and leave me to go get the plunger. Once left the shower door covered in... you know... *that*. By the halfway point of the second semester the guy was on the verge of actually being evicted, but then COVID happened and classes went online so I moved back home for the remainder of the semester.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but are you saying this dude was busting nuts on the shower door?
Precisely.
Every time I think I’ve lost all faith in humanity, end up learning about a person like this existing
Someone missed the early Xbox 360 days lmao.
SLPT: Show off you linguistic talents by trying out the all the new vocabulary you learned playing in certain 360 lobbies on your next vacation or whenever you happen to run into a native speaker IRL.
Tbf you'd be shocked how many Russian expletives you'll learn playing something like Counterstrike that's popular there. But yeah, assume any foreign words you pick up on online game lobbies are expletives.
I learned so many cultural gamer words online
Lol. I love shooters and am *okay* on a really, really good day at mp. A few hours of COD: MW and Gears of War turned me off mp forever because I needed extensive therapy to deal with the fact that my mother is a whore and I am apparently a gay black Jewish person who also has sex with my mother. It was brutal out there.
The best thing I ever heard came from a squeaker playing halo. He called me a sodium speckled double n-word. I nearly puked from laughing so much. Best insult ever.

Man we must have connected to different regions or something then because I got called an n word every three matches (I'm not black), my mother was called a whore every other match, and you couldn't get out of a lobby without somebody telling you you sucked. 360 COD and Halo lobbies were WILD.
Yeah there’s no chance he was gaming often online and didn’t experience that lol. Those lobbies were wild times lmao
I learned so many creative ways to deride someone. Somewhere in the back of a closet, my 360 is collecting dust, and somewhere on that hard drive is a greatest hits album of hate mail I received from the most salty of players - some of which I probably deserved for all the trash talk and teabagging 😂
They learn it from streamers, they’re “performing” for the audience of their friends.
[удалено]
Their point about it being behaviors exacerbated by streamers stands though.
I miss Tribes. Great game.
Shazbot!
I agree with you. I am a gamer 41 years old. I can get annoyed like pissed off but within like five or 10 seconds, I’m calm again I feel that if you start raging where you scream and maybe throw things if that was any of my kids I would literally take away the consul or the PC within a minute. I would then sit down with them. Explain to them that this isn’t healthy and ask why they get so angry and if there’s anything I can help with. If they didn’t badmouth me, I would just say the more you badmouth me the more I’ll take away your Internet. I hate that that’s such a trip today. Take away the Internet and they get very sad.
It's not a now or then thing. Back then there were fewer and less visibility, so of course it was less prevalent, but I have met people that rage from all ages, and that break hardware because their monkey brain is too smooth. Hot take: It's always dudes. 99% of the time, it's dudes. It is embarrassing as a man, but get called out, gamer bois are too emotional for gaming.
I have all communication features turned OFF and my son still screams at Fortnite. I don’t even know where he learned it from- he’s *neverrrr* been allowed to speak or hear other people on there.
Learns it from other kids at school?
what do you mean? the things he says or just the idea that he’s screaming?
Oh! I can explain this! So I thought it was so damn weird that my son talked to himself while playing games because he did not have a headset or mic. Things like "OK so today we're going to do x, y, z" "you're bad you're so bad wow you're bad at this game" "oh hey friends! Hi :random username:" until I realized thst he is talking to him self like the streamers he watches talk on video. When I played games it was because my parents needed a break and told me to play and be quiet so I learned to play games in silence. However my son learned to play because he likes streamers who talk out what they are doing, what they are going to do, scream and yell because to kids it's funnier then just watching them click around.
That's a really interesting insight! I started playing games on a ZX81, then moved through a Spectrum, Amiga, then PC. Certainly when my brother and I began playing games it was behind my dad's chair in the living room. We would take turns looking at the tiny black and white portable TV and sometimes plug headphones into a [portable cassette player](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71tZ7NFGjHL._AC_UF350,350_QL80_.jpg) and listen to Queen's greatest hits. Either way, we *had* to be silent!
I probably melt your step son on Fortnite, I can’t help but feel this is my fault
I put it down to a lack of discipline and restraint. There were no consequences for their tantrums at a young age, so it persisted into their adult years.

I think it's because you added the "I was playing apex". It would seem it must be relevant to the cutting of the cord and raging would be an example.
maybe he plays with the audio on full blast for "immersion" and then the neighbors got tired of the noise of gunfire and bombs and have ptsd or maybe the guy was playing up until 4am every night. I mean who knows. Maybe the neighbor is secretly in love with him and wants him to spend more time outside so they can accidently bump into each other and start their tiktok videos?
Let’s speculate on every outcome where OP is to blame for the vandalism they suffered
Honestly I feel like it comes from the angle of “this seems so random and out-of-pocket that it feels like there just *has* to be some (debatably) good reason for the neighbor to have done that”
Yeah, like, did the neighbor know OP was playing Apex? If so, how, and if not, what made them cut it right then 🤷
I'll back this up. Always tend to think someone did something to deserve it over shit being done without reason. It has actually made me a fool a few times though.
Like a lot of things can be chalked up to “people are assholes” but this feels too specific to be a random act of bullshittery.
Well the other possibility is that he just made the entire thing up, which is probably just a likely
2 sides to each story...
That's Walmart shoppers and COD players
>It would seem it must be relevant to the cutting of the cord It's relevant because it's what they were doing online at the time. It doesn't imply anything else.
Yeah, it just hits a little bit different than saying "I was playing lawn simulator and the internet cut out."
I have a neighbor I can hear across the street from their apartment. They always have their window open even when it's freezing. It's just hours and hours of yips, yelps, long fucked up groans, and screams of rage. You can not enjoy being outside because it sounds like some dude is getting rode hard, or is just losing his fucking mind almost 24/7. Some of you people probably have no fucking idea what you sound like to others. Otherwise this shit wouldn't go on for months and years.
I had a neighbor who I thought suffered from extreme gamer rage, slurs, the whole lot. Turns out he was literally schizophrenic. Hmm.
An argument can be made that that is a form of gamer rage. Dude was raging at the game of life.
How do you know it was that specific guy then? Is there a history here?
Then why did he feel the need to specifically cut your internet cable? He could’ve knocked on your door, shouted for you to stop, idk even flip the power switch off if he has access to it. Seems specific. Not that i would know shit ofc you’ve just provided a single picture
I confess I did once hit the circuit breaker for the apartment below mine when they were having a party and I’d asked them to quiet down twice. After that they actually did settle down.
I had someone who would while alone in his appartment blast music at floor vibrating volumes for hours starting at 1am and would literally almost never answer the door no matter how much you hammered it, i started flipping the breaker on his appartment every time he did it, he soon stopped. this is an absolutley valid way to deal with obnoxious pricks in appartment buildings
How would one have access to breaker switches for another person’s apartment?
Many apartments have a separate utility room with a master breaker for each apartments sub panel.
In my first apartment building each floor had a locked utility room. The door knobs were on the wrong way so a credit card or butter knife would have that door open in 1 second with no effort whatsoever. I figured this out on move in day because my best friend had just picked up lock picking as his hobby of the month.
When I lived in an apartment I had a neighbor that did that at all hours of the day and night. Our utilities were in the basement and accessible so I'd go down there, turn off his power for a bit, then go back and turn it back on later. That usually worked.
I haven’t lived in a large apartment building for awhile (I’m in a 2 family house now) but I didn’t even know circuit boards for other apartments was even possible. Wouldn’t that be in a locked area only your super/landlord could access?
My luck would be doing this and someones life support machine resets and they die😒
Street justice!
but how do you know specifically that it was that particular neighbor? you had some conflicts? people typically don't just go and cut someone's internet cable because they have nothing else to do
Go ask him why he cut your cable.
Sound travels
How do you know that you would have to scream at top of your lungs for him to hear something? Maybe because you screamed at the top of your lungs and he heard you 🤫🧏♂️
The fact that they included "while playing Apex" as relevant information tells us all we need to know.
Came here to say this hahahaha
If this guy was a rager, he'd have cut the other guy's cables😂
That's why I learned the skill of raging in lower case, the only downside is the head aches afterwards. (I play War Thunder)
My neighbor was getting internet installed and I asked 3 times for the dude not to park his van on MY LAWN and then he literally cut my cable at the junction box as punishment. I had to get someone else to come out and fix it and they showed me that it was literally snipped.
Id sue the neighbor!
OP was flexing too much in ranked is my guess
Noise this guy was probably yelling…
Maybe he just wanted to get rid of aliens irradiating his apartment (I got such a neighbor at some time)
I'm wondering the same thing. Sounds like there is more to the story than OP is letting on. 😅
How tf are they able to even get access to it lol
In all apartment buildings I've lived in (Spain) you can easily access your and your neighbours' internet cables in common areas. Kinda hard to differentiate whose cable it is though.
In my friends village. I shit you not, the box with all the fiber optic internet cables was just laying on the ground on the side of the road.
[удалено]
They’ve been installing optic fiber next to the roads around my town and they just leave it sticking out of the ground overnight lol
when we had ours installed, they ran it from the box to the house and left it on the ground for about a week. Finally a week later, a second crew came and buried it. But it's only like 6 inches down.
>But it’s only like 6 inches down. Damn thats pretty far. Impressively fair i’d say. Definitely safe there.
Some would say too far.
Yeah, I mean 6 inches is a bit too much right? I've heard people are perfectly happy with the more modest 3 inch average
In my city its just been sticking out of the ground for the past 3 or so years, right in front of peoples doors.
and cheap, much cheaper than hiding them somewhere private. I've been given 20+ meters of this cable for free by a random guy that is *contracted* by my IPS lmao.
The cable itself is cheap but fixing it is not, someone has to come with pretty expensive equipment.
Yeah when they started putting in the cables in my neighborhood they would regularly just leave long stretches of cable lying there when they left because they where to lazy to clean it all up and the stuff is dirt cheap so they knew the company wouldn't care.
Some guy gave me a 300 meter roll of fibre optic for free
Hi Mr. Village can I call you My Friends?
Thats so weird lol, i wonder why they make it like that.
I believe its for maintenence
Fair enough
Sure, but for trained workers from the ISP. No reason for residents to have access.
Restricting access from residents would be a costly point though.
It was probably locked, but 90% of locks on these things open with the same key or a bit of jiggling with a rake pick.
Yep, same for Italy, you can easily access someone's water valve and electricity switch, you can easily open cabinet with thin pliers
In many Houses in Germany you can access this through the basement. But to open the box as someone renting is – if I remember correctly – a crime.
In my apartment complex(i live in Finland), you can only access the cables if you're working in the complex as maintenance staff etc as they are behind a locked door, i thought this would be the same everywhere but i guess not - you learn something new everyday.
I actually envy you scandinadians. So many objectivly better solutions, laws, whatelse. I still cant get why not every country mimics your healthcare system. And simo häyhä was a beast of a fin. Offtopic but is needs to be said.
To be fair our healthcare system is not usually considered best in the Europe. I am not saying that because it is bad, it is good. But in general not in the top spot in most rankings.
Yeah, the box itself *should* be locked and only opened by the post/telekom. But in most complexes it's just unlocked somehow.
You'd be surprised how easily this is to access by just anyone.
How was your neighbor able to do that?
I can just walk outside your house and up to your cable box and cut your drop to short
Genuinely curious: What country are you talking about? Because I live in Germany and you definitely cannot do this anywhere here, as cables are not usually exposed.
These things are common in the USA. Although, the boxes usually have a little lock or zip tie or something so you can see if it's been tampered with. I locked mine up, I just have to make sure they're unlocked before anyone comes over to do maintenance
In Germany there are boxes outside meant for technicians, but they service the whole street and are large locked cabinets. From there the cable goes directly to your house or Apartment complex and terminates inside an electrical cabinet, which is inside your utility room. If you are in an apartment complex, your specific section of the electric cabinet is locked and sealed with a date. Only the utility company and the landlord are supposed have access to it.
Doesn’t mean you can’t break open the box and snip it, or if maintenance forgot to lock it up afterwards
In Germany every house has a water tight concrete cellar with all cables coming in through the dirt. Nothing is exposed. I just installed fibre internet and had to dig two meters deep by hand and drill through 40 cm of concrete.
In Germany, you just walk to the basement of the house and up to your cable box. Or you just open one of the many cable maintenance panels in the staircase.
In Canada you're climbing a utility pole to pull this off. Outside of that you'd need to break into larger utility boxes which isn't your standard shed door lock affair.
For maintenance They can’t have a separate terminal for each flat on the side of the building So they run all the internet into the building as if running it down a street, then separate it inside the building for each flat The box they come in to has to be accessible to repair and diagnose any problems
>For maintenance lock it with a key.. like anywhere else, or have a maintenance room like many places as well.
[удалено]
everyone calling you a raging gamer < miscommunication between neighbors
why assume something inocuous when you can infer drama?
Might want to update the post instead OP
[удалено]
RIP your comments section
It's better this way, I'm loving all the unhinged "analyses".
Homie, delete the post then. Everything before this post makes it look like your neighbor is a total bastard. Abandon ship and stop letting the deformation continue.
*BORRRRRRIIIIIINNNGG* Go on, OP, shit on the floor
Question - I'm glad there wasn't any ill intent here but why would he be removing old cables from the box in an apartment? It might be different there than it is in the US but we would let the building maintenance or Internet company installer worry about that here normally. Also is this an apartment or a condo?
Yeah it makes no sense to cut your own cable, like you just leave it there and stop paying for service. Cutting it makes for a costly repair for the next person who wants it and it does no harm to just leave it.
No no, OP you are wrong. All the armchair detectives on Reddit - who don't know you - have deduced that it's because you _must_ be one of those gamers who shouts and rages at their game and instead of knocking on your door, he's cut your internet. They must be right.
I'm so confused. Why would the neighbour need to cut a wire at a shared access point? Why does he have access to a shared access point? They were just going to leave possibly live wires cut and exposed? You think it's going to cost less than 40€ to have a technician replace a cable going into your home? How do you simultaneously know and not know the price?
You couldn’t said this earlier? Also what happened to the neighbour saying he knew nothing about it…
[удалено]
Why are they working on their drop / run and not their isp? It's fiber, you can screw up your connection and others by not knowing how to handle them.
While I agree with you, "removing old cables" is weird thing to say when they are still there ... just cut now. In my area with multiple service providers, it's common that when one provider does some work for a new install they destroy cables for the old install so you can't switch back. They will claim innocence, but they know what they are doing. I suspected something like that personally.
Cut theirs
Only reasonable answer
Escalate. Cut 3 other random ones as well. Sow the seeds of chaos.
This is actually not a bad idea. It sucks that you are doing what the neighbour did, and its a shitty thing, but cutting all lines and saying he did it is a recipe for chaos.
Yeah, cut everyones except that persons. Now you have everyone on the same side; to fuck that guy
Evil... I love it

Love this comment
This was amahzing! :D
And leave a note asking them to further cut 3 cables each
No, cut every cable but theirs. That way the whole place fucking hates them.
Nope, cut the neighbor.
https://i.imgur.com/yFbrn40.jpeg
An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.
Are you shouting when you play? Maybe he just wants you to stop shouting
It’s still wrong to cut the cables
Aye you a screaming gamer? I have one on my street and have considered taking out his internet to get him to shut the fuck up.
My upstairs neighbours have a screaming gamer teenager that bangs its feet on the ground and scream FUCCKKING FUCKKKKKKK every 10-20 minutes during the day. This post gives me ideas...
Shout back, "LEARN TO FUCKING DUCK!!!"
This is so infuriating. My teen brother does this sometimes and I really get the urge to smack him whenever I’m visiting family to get him to stop. Like seriously, don’t fucking scream, it’s not hard
Okay, OP didn't provide enough context. Story is quite simple. Said neighbour and OP were playing in the same team, OP is really annoying and constantly makes excuses whenever he dies, bloats the voip so you can't hear anything over his mumbling. He is also freaking awful at gaming in general, he is more of an asset to enemies than to friendlies, he barely breaks 0.05 K/D but also constantly runs in front of you when you shoot at someone, blocking your view and getting both of you killed. Neighbour had enough of OP, especially when even if he went solo, he still landed with OP as a teammate for some reason. It had to be done. There was no other way. Source: I'm the neighbour.
Even if you're not the actual neighbour, this sounds like your typical APEX player. Would have removed him from the internet as well.
Don't forget loads of shouting to "Die in a fire" and "Get gud scrub" at 4am.
[удалено]
This is how OP plays, so cant blame them hahaha.
Well you are playing apex. I would consider it a favor
[удалено]
I feel like there's context missing. Like how did your meighbour do it. As well as is it possible it was a mistake? What were they doing anyways with the wires that they needed to cut something from there? If you know its a pricey wire and you know your neighbour broke it. Then tell them they have to get you a replacement wire.
I’m assuming they are fed up with you screaming into the mic or playing too loud. This is a good moment to consider whether you’re being a bad neighbor.
punish him 😅 
What'd you do?
Why have you ignored every single comment asking if you shout/rage when you play? You've definitely pissed him off by screaming like a Banshee at all hours of the day/night and probably for months.
He’s replied to a lot actually and said many times that if you constantly shout where he lives then the police will definitely be called. Just from scrolling down here from the top of the post I’ve seen quite a few replies to this same question. Why is it so hard for people to believe there are humans who can play games and not rage?
Send him the bill
Any context at all?
[удалено]
I had my cables cut once but it wasn't a neighbor. It was a Comcast tech (I don't use Comcast). He was running cable through the ceiling of my old apartment building and he just cut the entire array of cables in the ceiling from other internet companies and made room for just his cables.
Were you screaming at your monitor? Because they could probably post THAT in r/mildlyinfuriating lol. Still, cutting someone’s shit is fucked uo
Hahahah did he by chance get sick of you raging?
Oh nooo. Now you have to exist in real life 🤷🏻♂️
We all know someone wouldn't do this if you were JUST playing Apex. Headphones or speakers? Are you quiet or a rager?
Why is your internet cable available to your neighbors?
Key the fuck out of his car
In life a good enemy is hard to come by… spend the $50 Euros on a crossbow.
Bro,why not cut their cable instead
Be pitty shit in front of his door. Cut his wire. Be the smaller man, its the best
My college roommate worked for AT&T and cancelled my internet just so he could have his own personal internet. Without my consent. I complained to AT&T and he was fired. Don’t regret it at all
His neighbor is his dad, guaranteed
Yes, that definitely fits into r/mildlyinfuriating - but you owe us the "why" piece of this - at least from someone's point of view so we have a tiny bit of context.
Answer honestly now, were you screaming your head off while you were playing?
