I have a feeling this server won't be scratcher friendly. XD especially if statues are built.

We're not talking about a server.

We're just going to point out the flaws in your logic.
People don't commit suicide because someone deleted their statue or stole some items. Sure, they'll feel offended and annoyed, but they won't be driven to commit suicide.
Would YOU commit suicide if someone took stuff out of your chest or made holes in your house? I think not. Can you imagine anyone else committing suicide because of that? They wouldn't.

No-one's so addicted to minecraft that they'd kill themselves over it.

That's just part of something someone wrote. No, I'd never commit suicide.

I've seen people go "over the top" with reactions to griefing.


I'm not even going to bother with replying any more. It's just a waste of time.

lol just read whole thread
so funny
but uh im not capable of laughing at the internet so yea
anyway,
only grief if the server allows it is my policy
griefing sucks unless its acknowladged

But if everyone was a griefer,



what would griefers grief?

Griefing is fun... when it's not being done to you.

Anyone griefing can be cyber-bullying. - Not good.

I knew something like this was gonna happen. And suicide over a video game? Please, tell me you're kidding. PLEASE

Yup


Of course, there's in-game suicide on some servers.

Why does in-game suicide matter at all?

This isn't the only minecraft topic,

Well, it is supposed to be a game, I believe.  Possibly "griefing" is considered acceptable game play, on some servers?

Do you mean what's the point in it or why did it matter so much that I posted about it?
Either way, I dunno.

On most it is not. While some have a "everything goes" policy, this is obviously not a discussion of such.

Griefing is so named because it causes grief. Often people without good intentions destroy other's hours of hard work to see the reaction. It is essentially the "trolling" of Minecraft, and while most servers take measures to prevent it (so yeah it's bad) not all can or will, and end up having their server burnt to the ground. (It has been the death of a few servers on here itself)

Griefing is generally not acceptable gameplay.

At it being a game, the point of a game is not to destroy others stuff. The people come on with no intention of gaining status (e.g. A competitive atmosphere where burning stuff will allow you to be richer), but seeing people get mad or angry about it, then leave and never return (most likely banned).

But part of the game is to "survive from the baddies that come out at night". Shouldn't this also mean players? Should players have to protect themselves from other players? Also, it's not that different from pvp. You kill someone, and you get their items. Although pvp can be disabled, as can griefing by getting plugins. All in all, I think that griefing isn't a bad thing, and is part of the game.
