Hey Pandas, What Loopholes And Exploits Have You Come Across? (Closed)

How to beat pool tables that make you pay to release the balls for each game (you still need to pay for the first game unfortunately): get six plastic cups from a water cooler, put one in each hole. This will catch the balls and at the start of a new game, all you have to do is lift out the cups and empty them onto the table.

Years ago I worked in a call centre, a gig promoting credit cards. This project was meant to determine how the target audience reacted to different offers:
A) no discount, 25€ membership
B) 50% discount, €12,50 membership first year
C) first year free!
The commission was the same for every client I registered. The script algorithm determined which offer the client would get. I couldn’t change the offer. I could change the client data.
So if I sensed I wouldn’t get the sell, but I could convince the client to take the free year, I just wrote down their info, and edited the client data in the next ‘free script’. I was (and still am) a lousy sales person, however I got plenty commissions.

In the UK your water supply can't be cut-off, even if you don't pay your bill. However, this obviously can lead to fines etc for non-payment. But crucially, your water supply cannot be cut-off by law. N.B. This only applies to domestic use only, not businesses.

I worked at a remote office for a company about 40 miles away. They wanted everything to go thru their company firewall. Problem is, many times their internet would go down, I was trying to build a website and obviously came to a dead stop when their internet was down. Went into the computer closet, found the line in, bypass box or whatever its called and line to my computer. Unplug, replug and I have internet. Never did anything bad with it and certainly never told them how easy it was to bypass. They were engineers. Explains alot.

In the military, always have a second cover ("hat") in your office in a desk drawer. When you want to disappear for PT or a nap, put your second cover on your desk and leave. People see your cover and assume you're in the building somewhere because you can't leave without your cover. Worked for over 22 years.

this has to do with time limits on an apple phone.
my parents set a limit for 1 minute on youtube on my phone because they don’t want me on it.
to get around this i’ll search for a video I want to watch on google and then go to the video section and click on it there, spending no time on youtube searching for it. as soon as it’s playing, I double tap on my home button. the screen gets small but the video keeps on playing and it doesn’t count for time on youtube because i’m not technically on youtube, so I can watch for almost as long as I want.

If you have to get your oil changed or your tires rotated...just don't make an appointment and just show up and tell them what you need done. They get you in right away. Anytime I make an appointment, I still have to wait.

At work in the late 90s to stop us playing the pre-installed games such as Solitaire, the rubbish person responsible for office IT tried to delete the games program. What she failed to realise was she only deleted it from the desktop and it was p**s easy to reinstall. Which I did, every time she deleted it. She could monitor what we were doing on the computers and being the main culprit playing games she’d try to run round from her corner to catch me in the act but never did. She moved so fast that sparks were flying because of her nylons (tights) rubbing together! She once approached me to say she didn’t know how the hell I managed to reinstall the games but to please stop. A really knowledgeable IT person she obviously wasn’t or perhaps she was more of an IMac person than a Windows one. She died a few years ago and I sometimes do feel regret for winding her up so much.

When I was two or three, my mom had to tell me to stop coloring on the walls with markers (washable). I then climbed on my dresser and colored on the ceiling.

I have to honestly say that during my career I had one gigantic loophole or exploit but I never took advantage of it. It was my gender. I'm female. I worked as an automobile repair technician for about 40 years (You can take the girl outta tha oil but you can never get the oil outta tha girl!). I had the perfect out for getting away with all kinds of things. Bat your baby blues and look all helpless and say "Oh gee, you're so big and strong and gee, it's so hard to do (what ever). Could you give me a hand? Next thing you know, it's all done for you. No thanks. Did my own work. Earned my own rep. Retired with pride.

A lot of schools use a monitoring app called Go Guardian which allows teachers to view your screen & delete tabs, but it's actually just a Chrome extension. Anything outside of Chrome can fly under the radar so long as it isn't blocked by the device's filter.

I will split things "evenly" but I will basically always get the bigger piece and when me and my brother split drinks, I'll put slightly more in my glass and say "they're equal, I already checked"... I'm kinda evil

This is an exploit for a game, the game is a console game called unturned, there is a currency system and their isn't a way to get more to get gun skins, but if you go in ur storage and go to saved data and delete your data, it won't actually delete ur stuff and ur coins will go to 9200. this only works on ps4.

I found an exploit in this Roblox game called Creatures Of Sonaria that lets you swim on land by going in the water and then clicking the run button on land which you would float with the swimming animation on land. You could do this without hacking but sadly a few days after I discovered it the glitch was mostly patched and could not be done on command.

My school would use an application so that the teacher could see your screen whenever they wanted to. It was a crap application and made the "high quality" laptops lag out.

Some kids found a loophole in which they turned off their wifi. With no internet, the stupid application couldn't connect and would say "[student's name]'s device is offline."

You could play offline games or in my case, draw things.

idk if its a loophole but racecar spelled backwards is racecar

AT my school, Netflix is blocked during the day, but if you go to 'login' you can get to Netflix from there

At my school, you cannot download apps or games on the laptops, but there is a certain loaner computer that has the Sims downloaded on it ;)

Im not quite sure if this qualifies as a loophole, but It is still very fun

Senior year of college, needed an easy gen ed course. Took French 101 (usually taken by freshmen). Rules stated you could not have had more than 4 semesters of the language class in high school within the last 4 years or something like that. I took French class all 4 years of high school, but because of the "last 4 years" clause and I was a Senior, it meant I only had 2 semesters in the last 4 years (going back to last year of high school). So despite having passed French AP, I was able to take (and ace) French 101 in college! :)

Unblocked games websites, for when you have beat every game on cool math in every save you could
