I was hoping I could get a few of you from the ganker/griefer "club" to post your introspective thoughts on this: what makes you, as a griefer/ganker tick? Why do you do what you do? I'm not complaining here, as complaining is not the intent of this topic, instead I'm wondering why you do the things you do? I can assume that you do it because it's fun, but we're digging deeper than "because it's fun" with deep, profound thoughts about the inner works on your own mind. Tell me, think about it, and post your thoughts.

Your asking the unimaginative knuckle draggers to have a deep thought, your asking to much, if they had any good ideals they would be doing that instead of watching the same stupid outcome time after time...like watching a dvd 100 times...to most they would get bored.

Is that like a shart? I hate it when that happens because 1) It's when I'm on a roam and can't leave because the enemy appeared right before (but it wasn't related in any way  ) or 2) I'm in the car and every light turns red right before I get there

I do it for the reactions. I wonder how a person reacts when their hard work gets destroyed.

This is one expected reaction.
Envy.
He wishes he could grief but fails to do so. In his shame, he tries to belittle it so that it appears that only those under him would be capable of griefing.

Yeah...I kinda lost the thrill of getting reactions when I got past 12 yrs old. But that's why just as an organ can be defective, bad gene's carry over a defective brain.

I seem to sense more anger than envy, envy implies that they have a desire something that someone else has but cannot acquire it, and I find it a big assumption to assume they want to grief, from my point of view anyway. I think anger is the most likely reason.

I must concur with my esteemed colleague Mr. Gallant; the behaviour evidenced implies a recent and painful intrusion of the rectal area.

Because in the game we ... I mean they of course, can do what they can't in real life, and without facing any consequences.
Really. Imagine that you could just take chainsaw and start killing people, knowing that there won't be any punishment. Griefers are people who are kept in bay only by law enforcement, not morals.

I started out years ago operating on a semi strict anti macro mining campaign.
In those days there was a great deal of sweat shops, not necessarily macros.
I thoroughly enjoyed talking to them to find out how much they earned and just how much I could make them go hungry through my actions.
I had no idea that literally denying food to another human being could be so satisfying.
Sadly that's all gone now. Griefing feels so empty now since all I'm doing is denying [whatever] to [whoever].

^^This...
Although I do have high Morals IRL, in game, it's just that... a game. I can be whoever I want to be. Although I do enjoy recieving hate mail from people telling me they will get me somehow one day. What I do will most certainly have consequences one time or another for me ingame.
That's what makes it so exciting, that one day I will probly pay for it one way or the other.

Why do grief? Buh. Because fat. Also because ugly. Society make fail to educate person in moral. No can get job or woman. But game good. Game make bad go away. Real life? Real life kill cat for food to not die to play game 18 hours. Real life make suffer. Game? Game no make suffer. Game I make other suffer for make me suffer in real life. Flip can, make cry. Sometimes camp Stranglethorn for half a day with Night Elf hunter. Game make me look like pretty Asian girl, make happy.
What inside mind of griefer? Griefer subjective term, but speaking from personal, mix of this and this. Thursdays, this.
Fuh, it 8 a.m. Me go sleep now.

Ganking is not griefing, it's just gameplay. Often quite profitable gameplay.

I think Crumplecorn said it best....
According to CCP it isn't griefing unless your intention is to drive the player out of the game.

Heh, good luck with this one. Asking a griefer to explain why he does what he does is like asking a 3-year-old to explain Einstein's general theory of relativity.
What I think? One word: Sadism. What makes Eve such a beautiful game is also its undoing. It attracts a lot of rejects from other games. Because of its mechanics it can be quite appealing to those looking to harm, bully, and troll others.
For a great vast, Eve is a game. But for quite a few it can be a great tool to project ill intentions on others.

I am considered a griefer because I live in highsec and wardec various corporations and alliances for sport.
For me, part of the fun is in the hunt. Using locaters to find wt's not docked. Sending in a neutral to scan down a fool running a mission during wartime. sitting 1-2 jumps out to make sure he cannot escape then, when we get a warpin, perfectly executing the hit and escaping before his buddies can react. Also using multiple locaters to profile a targets movements, then when he becomes predictable you catch him on a gate.
Another part is fighting outnumbered. Take on twice or more in numbers then afterward laugh at their stupid fits. Warp into a mixed fleet 3v9 in AF's, kill what you can then warp out. Using guerrilla tactics against much larger fleets.
Finally, when they do get butthurt, you can point and laugh becuse so many people just dont get that it's a pvp game and there is no e-bushido.
Long story short, I am not out specifically to make you angry. I enjoy the style of pvp I do in this game and if you don't like it I really don't care. If you become angry though and send me or my mates hate mail we'll certainly enjoy a good laugh at your expense.

This is just so wrong it's laughable, but carry on believing it if it makes you feel better.

Before anyone reads this, drunken posting is bad, mmmmkay?.
I don't consider myself a griefer, but I enjoy the hell out of suicide ganking mining barges. Yes, I know they're trying to make isk in the best way how, but I still want to try and pop them. I love pvp, but I find pve to be a relaxing change from the monantany of pvp. Suiciding miners is pve. 90% of hulk pilots don't think twice about protecting themselves against other players. Although I may fail gank the remaining 10% and chastise myself horribly, those miners that survive (the 10%) get an A+ in my book. With suiciding, it's relaxing. Can I gank the retriever, and can I beat the eve minigame of getting the pod before concord pops my catalyst in a .5 system. It's not personal, it's not sadistic, it's simply a means of enjoying eve through a valid game mechanic.
This style of play may upset other players, I can understand that. One fact remains, we're all here to play a video game. One player may derive pleasure from the completion of building another ship, another may derive pleasure from popping another pod. Either way, we should all thank ccp for giving us an elegant distraction from the real world giving us a chance to relax and enjoy life.
For those who feel that pirates, griefers, and gankers should die of cancer or some other horrible disease, please keep sending your emails. They really do keep us warm at night. The tears subjugate the nausea from the chemo.
