According to ccp the following
Question
How does CCP define "grief tactics"?
Answer
A "grief player" or "griefer" is a player who devotes much of his time to making other players' lives miserable, in large part deriving his enjoyment of the game from these activities. Grief tactics are the mechanics a griefer will utilize to antagonize other players without provocation. This should not be confused with a standard conflict which might arise between two players. At our discretion, players who are found to be consistently and negatively interfering with the game experience for others may receive a formal warning, temporary suspension or permanent banning of his account
a war was declared supposedly on a corp that i know of for the reason was due to them supposedly having a larger standing with amarr compared to minmatar. I know the corp very well and to the point where i can honestly say that they are not a RP corp. They dont favour any corp in anyway, there just a group of friends trying to get along and have fun together, which has been stopped and tbh some of them are thinking of giving up the game now cos there not having fun anymore with how this war is going.
for them to stop the war against that corp they want 500 freed slaves, the corp to change their corp logo on the forum / site so it has the amarr character at the back of the sig and a minmatar character infront of it. They also want them to renounce their support of amarr on the forum.
for a non RP corp how can they support amarr? anyway from talking with one of the members from the RP corp who have forced the war on the other corp which im making this post about, they told me that they are only at war with this corp cos they want the post on the forum above anything else. They want that post so that they can have a war with other RP corps which at the same time drags this corp into it.
this has been petitioned and their awaiting the outcome but i am curious what do you the public think. would you consider this grief play?

humm ok so you think its right that they are being exstorted from? 
whats to stop that RP corp from following them if they do even consider changing to a new corp and just re-issuing the war challenge all over again till they get what they want?
the way i see it RP corps shouldnt drag non RP corps into RP issues, they should keep it between themselves and those who actually do want to role play this game to another level. I dont think there was a need to force a war on a corp just to have them post on the forum something that would open them even more to chances of having more wars due to some RP'rs taking this game over the top.

I said !=.
please type normally, dont use strange acronyms.
you say primary the purpose of causing grief. whats to say they didnt pick the victims corp for that purpose? dont you think that forcing a corp to get into RP problems is an issue that should be addressed? to have that corp declare openly on the forum would only open them up to more wars which would intail more grief and missery spoiling there game even more thanks to the corp that started it all in the first place.
from looking at it the only way i can see them actually playing and having fun again is to disbandon the corp and play as NPCS which to be honest i think none of them are in anyway interested in doing.
i dunno maybe i think more of this then i should but what the heck there my friends and i hate seeing them have this trouble just because some RP'rs play this game to seriously
