Why did game griefing die down? It's not prevalent in games anymore.
Why did game griefing die down? It's not prevalent in games anymore
social media started, crybabies found other crybabies, start to feel way more self-important, they all started complaining and campaigning together. now you're banned for swearing in games
No dedicated servers
Thank god, I don't mind when the person puts some effort into it, while I never did it griefing in gmod to servers usually were funny. GTAOnline simply has "I will shoot you with my overpowered vehicle" over and over, not that funny
lack of dedicated servers in a lot of games, tighter game/server moderation, and the fact that the majority of griefers are unfunny. there's quite a difference between high effort griefing and the more common low effort griefing which consists of throwing or team killing while spamming nigger in chat
>the more common low effort griefing which consists of throwing or team killing while spamming nigger in chat
.....so griefing
this gen is fucking weak
zoomers don't have a rebellious attitude
high-effort griefing affected the whole server, often through glitches and oversights. now people just lock on 1 guy and call it a day

Best kind of griefing is just being better at the game and using low tiers and meme weapons.
shit video
This or getting someone mad enough that they use racial slurs and then getting them chat banned.
what kind of psychological issues would a griefer have?

Distant, bullying father, unloving manipulative mother.
Closeted homosexual.
basically because: youtube.com
>No one wants to play with some dickhead who is actively attempting to ruin the way the game was meant to be played
>WOW THESE KIDS THESE DAYS ARE JUST NOT AS SPIRITUALLY STRONG AS ME
Shut up faggot. You just got a few gay chuckles out of someone being annoying online when you were like twelve years old and didn't have shit better to do anyway. This melodramatic bullshit about the wonderful bygone era of the internet where people were all hard asses or something is so retarded. It was never good, you were just too young and stupid to understand that it was bad.
gmod was mostly creative trolling using the tools provided in a way not expected
gta online trolling is doing what rockstar expects you do to so they can make more money from shark card sale. if you are not spawning infinity cash for people in gtao you are just another piece of shit like rockstar
But that's wrong, you can get 5 stars and force cops to follow you and make people crash into them, use the drone to tase people without them knowing what the fuck is going on, use the up and atomizer to turn cars upside down, steal their cargo, send mercenaries or muggers after them, et cetera you lack imagination.
>call strike team
>wait 5 mins for it to arrive
>target just hops on his oppressor and blows them up in 10 seconds
ok
>go to steal vehicle cargo
>other guy hops on his oppressor and spawn camps you for 1 hour
sweet
>go to mod a car
>other guy waits outside on his oppressor
wow this is so much fun
You're not looking hard enough.
>not destroying their shit immediately forcing them to wait 5 minutes for a new one
Looks like you are not very good at the game.
>can't talk to team mates outside of canned chat
>matchmaking is the only way to join games
>moderation is automated so people just spam reports to get you banned
>games are unironically too uncreative and restrained to find fun ways to grief people
>4 words and you can make a guy rage and project this much
The only good griefer.

A VOTE FOR DANIEL IS A VOTE FOR FREEDOM
>he waits for the timers
>in a game with no anti cheat software
i do it sometimes in R6
DNSL is a fucking champion
mygot are the original griefers
Here's the real reason. Big companies are run by soulless people in suits who look at people in statistics and numbers who only cares about the bottom line. And the bottom line is that the newly coined term "toxicity" causes people stop playing or avoid a certain title so in order to attract as many customers as possible they establish zero tolerance rules and this way they also gain SJW points which is all a PR front, no company really gives a single fuck about anything other than your money.
It isn't some malicious agenda, it isn't some boogie man, It's not George Soro's or the globalists, it's just money.
I miss the SL vids.
People now pay for online services so don't want to put up with it. The death of community servers helped too.
When GTAOnline first came out I kept picking some kid in his car up with the cargobob and dropping him off on some really distant island and spawn killing him with satchel bombs, kid was screaming down the mic at me threatening to give my username to the police, shit was great.
>It's not George Soro's or the (((globalists)))
>he doesnt know
and today you cant even hook anything with the cargo bob, even if you did you'd just get shot down with explosive spam
There were great team gamerfood videos where they'd provoke people into tking in cs:go, resulting in the person getting a week ban.
It was peak griefing, but it looks like all the videos were pulled.
Kiddos started switching to directly DDOSing servers and sending bots to do their dirty work for them
