Roleplaying vs greifing?

[malphigian]

Then maybe you are on the wrong server.

I play PvP only. I doesnt particularlly bother me when the Horde does any bad thing to me. I might get riled up for the next 2 or 3 minutes, but thats why I am on a PvP server. I like the little edge that it has.

I expect people do everything against me they can with in the rules, and I expect them to bear it if I return the favor.

Thats what the rules aloow and thats what I want.

Ah, the classic "get to a carebear server" response.

There are things that are certainly possible that are just the hallmark of being an ass: going out of your way to kill people 20 levels under you in a lowbie zone, graveyard camping, camping on the invisible spot on the Gadgetzen AH roof, etc.

I don't whine about these (since I do expect them), but they are most certainly griefing and aren't the sorts of things I'd expect someone with a shred of decency or skill to be doing. They also are the mark of someone who doesn't particularily like a challenge in their PvP (my anti-ganker experience also teaches me they tend to be people who are also profoundly bad at PvP).

This isn't about some kind of horde/alliance role playing, it's about certain specific actions in the game that tell you something about the player at the keyboard, not the character.

Aside from the relatively small list of obvious griefs, everything else is grey area in my book.
