Do you play many competitive online games Lynk? That's the best place to find griefers... "Stop spawn killing me fag!!!"

I thought spawn killers were the griefers/trolls. Only when they do it specifically to annoy people though XP

People complain too much in games. If you suck, you suck, get over it.

Hmm... I don't know what habits I have. Seems like something someone else would have to notice. Maybe some of you can point mine out in TOR when the time comes. hehe

I am a bit of an obsessive saver. One of the first things I usually do is check the key bindings to see what "Quick Save" is mapped to. I don't know if that is really a silly habit exactly, but it's the only thing that comes to mind.

No bob, that is a perfectly natural reaction to games where choosing badly means death and subsequent reloading! I do this also.

Easier said than done! XD

I'd say I'm always up for a little "damnit!" or "SHIT!" whenever I lose in a game on single player. I'd feel a little awkward telling the AI "good game" when it's kicking my ass, but there are periods where I do get focused enough to not let losing be bothersome.

Funny thing is, nine times out of ten it seems I advance further in a game after my complaining, almost like after I ventilate my frustration, I get a second wind and get better!

As for multiplayer online, yeah, I expect to lose. But once in a while I still swear to myself when I let a match go and allow a comeback! XD

I'm unusually quiet when playing games. I can play for ten hours straight not saying any word. If I'm playing online, or with someone else beside me, I get a little more talkative, but nothing deeper than the casual positive and encouraging groan at my pals' performance or my complaints (at this point I get kinda mad, actually) on their failure.

When the game is difficulty and we're having a hard time getting across something, I get really nervous, though. I've catched myself throwing "you moron!" insults more than once.

Definetly this. And, as Mave, I too explore every little dark alley on RPGs. Multiple times. Multiple. I mean it, thanks.
Like, groovy you dig?

I think my most uttered phrase when playing a shooting game is "fuckfuckfuckfuck..." - usually said when I'm getting shot to hell running for cover.
