    ^ That. When you boil it down it's basically just putting your fun at a higher priority than everybody else's, a.k.a. being a ****, and I just don't see the need for it. You can have as much fun playing the game straight up, or doing something else and not feeling the need to make someone else mad.

    As far as I'm concerned... grief all you want in customs. It doesn't belong in Matchmaking.

    I like knowing why people do things, I just can't understand it though, Putting there fun above everyone else's I can understand that it's called been selfish.

    What I don't understand how holding down on right joy stick spamming L trigger for 5-20minutes per game is fun. Obviously the physical action is repetitive and boring so their fun derives from the results, Which can't come solely from losing a game because I'm pretty sure they wouldn't grief while playing alone so there fun must come from making other people lose but not just any "other people" other people on their own team, why does these reactions have to come from there own team? Backstabbing your own team rage=fun? Skillfully playing the game making the enemy rage=not fun? Unless there not good enough to make the enemy team rage so there only option is to betray? But it can be done without any communication (mics,messages,etc) meaning they can't know how there feeling or reacting to there griefing so there fun doesn't come from them purely witnessing a reaction so in the hope that there raging makes it fun?

    So there fun is to hopefully annoying random people on there team so at the end of the day they can go to bed thinking I hope I annoyed at least 50 people who relied on me for help and ruined there fun(not put there fun ahead of others but there fun relies on allies not having fun) and free time?

    Guess they are just huge DICKS(and that isn't a compliment)

    It's a good thing Battlefield has a minimum amount of childish players. I have encountered about 2 kids on this game, and both of them were very mature. As for Halo, you just have to give them a neg review and a mute and pray you don't get stuck with them again.
    The only time I grief is in customs at people I don't like, like others said, doesn't belong in something like matchmaking.

    Same here.

    I was in a game of customs the other day which we were invited to randomly. All the players were bitching at our ranks (We're field marshalls, they were all above Mythic).

    They tried to kick us and made me Host by accident. Pleased to say, I had a little fun.

    :)

    Field Marshall is actually a high rank though.

    I usually go to battlefield instead of halo though, It's a lot more mature.

    I'm guessing the Mythics were under the age of 11?

    Their voices were of the squeaky kind, yes.

    Griefing just isn't right in Matchmaking though. But if you try to ruin my matchmaking experience, I WILL ruin yours.
