Not quite all have the same meaning. I'd group them like this:
1, 4, 5, 6, and 7 -- playing tricks on others
2 and 3 -- teasing
1. Don't pull my leg.
2. Don't tease me.
3. Don't kid me.
4. Don't play a trick on me.
5. Don't play tricks/jokes/pranks
on me.
6. Don't play a joke on me.
7. Don't play a prank on me.
--------------------------
Are they all the same in meaning?
From #4 to #7, do we have to use plural forms or singular forms?
