Out of the loop: what does "share I tbed" mean?

I feel incredibly stupid asking this, but it seems my Google-fu is failing. I frequently see this phrase being mentioned but have no idea what it means. The closest interpretation I could come up with is "share (the loot), I teleblocked (the victim)," but that's probably wrong. Can someone fill me in?

It used to be that teams had designated tele-blockers since a lot of the other members would be on ancients and the person who got the kill would share a small portion (10-30%) of the kill with the person who tele-blocked the target. This still happens occasionally within warband pking teams when high value items (barrows, t90 armor/wep) are pk'd.

 

The term means exactly what you think it means, it is just a dank maymay that kids throw around when they are jealous of a PvM drop, won stake, or whatever.

“I had a feeling we weren’t coming back from this fight when it began.”

“Do you have any regrets?”

“I don’t. It seems surprising, I know, but I wouldn’t change a thing. This is how it was meant to be.”

“Huh, you never really notice how lovely the day is until you realize you’ll never see it again.”

“Mmmhmm.”

Your interpretation is correct :P. Like many expressions, the meaning has been changed/evolved over time and it's more or less a joke to ask sarcastically, "Hey, give me some!"

"Fight for what you believe in, and believe in what you're fighting for." Can games be art?

Thanks for the explanations; they make a lot of sense. I saw some players say that in Mod Weath and Mod Ronan's bot-killing video; they probably figured it would be nice to get some of the drops. :P
