Troll bait

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

Zombie bait

Zombie bait is a term for those in zombie shows, video games, movies etc. who are unlikely to survive due to one limiting characteristic or another that makes their chances of survival slim. Usually they're the ones who end up dying pretty early on in the storyline, leaving others who are more suited to survive. Seeing as how they aren't particularly useful to a survivor party, they are called bait because their lack of usefulness is their greatest strength: when they end up getting devoured by zombies their screams end up attracting zombies to the feast allowing other survivors to escape or flank the zombies in order to grab supplies.
Example 1: the fat guy who dies at the beginning of zombieland

Example 2: someone who has no survival or combat skills whatsoever and is unable to adapt, having only survived this long because they've surrounded themselves with others who do

Example 3: Shane used Otis as zombie bait, shooting him in the leg and stealing his supplies, making his escape while the zombies focused all their attention on eating Otis
