What griefers do
Typical griefer behavior includes: taunting others, especially beginners (also known as newbies); thwarting fellow teammates in the game; using inappropriate language; cheating; forming roving gangs with other griefers;


hahaha, the last part about 'roving gans' is hilarious.

You're sitting in your channel, talking amongst some friends, when suddenly!

Known as griefers, snerts, cheese players, twinks, or just plain cyberbullies, chances are that a kid near you has been bothered by one of these ne'er-do-wells at least once while playing online multiplayer video games such as Halo 2, EverQuest, The Sims Online, SOCOM, and Star Wars Galaxies. Griefers are the Internet equivalent of playground bullies, who find fun in embarrassing and pushing around others.


Haha what the~~~ That just sounds reaaaly loserish... -_-
How would you feel, getting called a newbie playing Sims lol


Ya but if you play Sims you're a newbie anyway.

I've seen GMTA and TTFN. GMTA was really popular on BBSs back about the same time you started using mirc or maybe a bit earlier. In fact, I still occasionally use gmta to this day if I'm typing fast and not paying attention. Usually that results in "what?".

I've seen TTFN explained several times before but never actually used it or seen it used.

101 = e
83 = S
