Tigress you need to make a country named "Who who"

I can't really believe I won that, my country was pretty poor, and I went and double tapped someone again. Thanks for not burying me in missiles Tigress. Still, it was a fun set with lots of techers. The Commies should have won for sure.

Tigress, its you, you are hitting yourself to cover up. Stop cheating, I hope the admins find evidence to ban you.

Even the idea of ruining a country is questionable. Not allowing them to win, or even finish to top ten (11th!)... when you know that country capable... is this greifing, or like a page from Ebert, showing that player that you will not except their hit on you... even once... because it's your county. And killing may be undoable or waste too many turns, after all, it's your choice Not to play for a ranked finish. I'm not saying a blindside. I'm saying as a retal. Is this considered grefing?
Can't do that if they have GDI you say? Well what if then I decide to go all jets and hit them several times ( or even once for over 2k acres and their stocks , all over a 200A hit they took on Thursday) in the last 6 hours of Express... is this greifing?
How about I don't tag up in Alliance and get farmed and when I retal more than the alliance that hit me accepts, or
send a missile for my retaliation (play against norms) and the alliance then kill-runs me...who is the greifer if same player comes back to do as much possible damage to said alliance? I'm gonna assume both in this instance with the Alliance being the primary fault. But hey, they are many, and have 'better' players anyways. More than one player will cry about it on AT and over- run the 'democracy' of the situation. ( Like true democracy has any place in a war game.)
How about if a player is dumb enough or just plain fluffy enough to use the same country name over and over again after doing something stupid during a set; any previous set using same country name. Is it greifing to get revenge that they are obviously offering up as opportunity, since they are playing a game where basic human nature should be a consideration in skills needed?
You really have to cover this terminology with more than you are giving, as it's used for everything under the sun.
Should a person not have the want to get payback, or even stop in their tracks someone they see as a strong competition against them? Is not patience a virtue, and guerrilla warefare still warefare?
Have not 'greifers' also invested/ wasted their time and efforts? Is your time and effort worth more because you are awesome- sauce?
Do you feel better when you get what you want? I do. Taking away what someone else wants is a form of retaliation... revenge. This game is after all, also a human social experiment.
If I'm in an alliance on the alliance server but play in Primary or Express, knowing other members of my alliance also playing there, and my only collusion is that of just not hitting them, but if also hitting humans outside of bots, if bots, is this untalked about collusion a form of greifing... because of choosing to hit a smaller selection of humans?
Is hitting humans on Any server where there are bots, is this not greifing? I mean, it upsets the person hit, even ruins their game if competing against similar players not getting hit. If you are competing to win out over a specific country only, after you are set back, is it not competing to then set them back in some way? Certainly fees 'greify'...new word!
Greif basically comes from getting hit at all and having to work around it, but multiple hits ruin a set, compared to those not getting hit at all? If this is the case, should not everyone be hit to keep competitive, say, when you see someone very fat and feel the field needs a better margin.
I'm not actually questioning all of thus for myself, but they're are others here that in fact do these things for a reason. You have to figure out their reason...try to politic it even in Express. All part of the game, and helps you get to know the players, even the ass holes.

I'm just watching the Mask Singer and wanted another long post to make you all read. I REALLY DON'T even care. I know I'm changing no minds as to the accepted greifer term... even I get it. I'll write another book later.. commercial is off, and fixing all of my typos is killing my watching time.

Tigress made me do it.

This is correct. It's not a code problem, or a game mechanic problem, it is a societal problem.

Imagine a society where people can get away with whatever they want without any accountability. Imagine what that would look like.

If you cant imagine one then I give you the phenomenon of "anonymous on the internet".

If you can't infer what I am saying, then I'll spell it out. Remove anonymity, and you create an actual community. The upsides far outweighs the downsides. It means the adults will be in charge, and the children will learn how to behave properly.

I was gunpowder treason and plot (#94), happy birthday to me :)

I double-tapped two hostile players and broke GDI, so I needed spies and spy tech, medical to repair the bio ops, and SDI in addition to the usual 9m turrets to stop the topfeeding jetters, plus tanks and troops.

So, it is possible to win Express while still having adequate defenses.
