Troll bait

When you open a solo server in left 4 dead 2 after getting trolled by team-killers. Since these losers often surf from server to server trolling everyone in sight you can trick them into joining as creating a lobby adds yours to the queue and they are likely to select it. Once they join you are able to easily kill their character as soon as they join to get revenge. If you're skilled enough you could also give them a minor headache by crashing the server, forcing them to restart their computer and wasting their time

Gotcha virgin! You fell for the troll bait!

Fic Baiting (v)

When an author intentionally acts like their work is complete until the bottom of the last page, baiting interested readers and inflating their fic stats to further the illusion.

An author I really like just started fic baiting (v) all their recent works and now I don't think I can trust them anymore because nothing they've actually written is finished despite the tags.
