From Encyclopedia Dramatica

Luring is a tactic used by trolls and assholes on many a MMORPG. It's a multi-step process:

1. Scammer befriends a naive newbie;
2. Scammer either lures the newbie into an area populated by many dangerous monsters, or into an area where player-killing is allowed;
3. Newbie gets owned, scammer lols and takes any loot dropped;
4. Laughs are had all round, and another pint of booze is ordered;

[edit] Child luring

Pedophiles use a very similar tactic with children:

1. Pedo befriends a naive child;
2. Pedo either lures the newbie into an area where they are alone, or into an area where the pedo can kidnap them;
3. Child gets a sexual experience they can brag about to all the virgins in their school, pedo lols and takes any innocence dropped;
4. Child grows up to be either gay or a stripper;
