I am an honest to God griefer. family name :) few years back, when googling oneself (stop giggling, you know what i mean) was all the rage, i gave it a whirl. bear in mind, i'm not a gamer, so when the results came back, i was more than a bit concerned. there were hits like, "all griefers must die". "griefers suck". "if you're a griefer why don't you just go ahead and stick your head in an oven" and wonderful stuff like that. i had no idea who i could have possibly pissed off that badly. i sleep a little bit better at night now that i know it wasn't me personally. but yeah, it was a little weird at first :) always kinda wondered if my domain (griefer.com) would fetch big bucks from any die-hard gamers.... hmm.... -- Evelyn the dog, having undergone further modification pondered the significance of short-person behaviour in pedal depressed, pan-chromatic resonance, and other highly ambient domains.
