It's simple why people grief. They want to destroy stuff but they're too lazy to make stuff to destroy so they go and destroy other people's stuff. Plus they love to see people flip.
cuz they're a mean, selfish, jealous, or just find it funny....OR want revenge on the person that griefed them. griefing mostly happened in alpha, when chests weren't locked with ''magic spells''

Sire I inquire as I do with most, but do you mean to gloat? For is it truly such a tire to reply to the host with but a simple QUOTE?
Well, most griefers are the idiotic, assholish, random destruction griefers. These are the people who blow **** up with TNT just because, or kill you and steal your stuff for no reason, even if you don't have **** worth taking.
I hate all griefers like that. I really wish I could reach through my computer screen, have my hand come out theirs, and rip their spines out through their mouths. These people ruin MC multiplayer for me.
On the other hand, non-destructive griefers I'm A-OK with. I don't care if they make an annoying noise machine, as that's harmless and can easily be dismantled. It's the people with clever jokes, sure you might be angry at first, but then you can have a good laugh about it later.
It's hilarious to see people flip their s**t over a video game. Burnt a cross and built a swastika on a Christian server one time. Priceless :wink.gif:
In my opinion, griefing on servers where it's strictly prohibited is pretty dumb. However, I'm completely fine with it on PvP servers where it's allowed. Someone finds me, kills me, and steals my stuff? Big deal, my fault for not making myself very well-hidden, lesson learned. I'm not going to flip out over a game.
I'd probably grief if I didn't have the curse of empathy, but I'd do it for reaction, attention, my own immaturity, and for laughs(if it was clever or big)
1. They are getting revenge
2. The staff is being an @$$
3. For their own laughter
4. For youtube
5. To try and get people to get off the computer, and get a life rather than building a giant sculpture in a computer game.

i dont understand why your asking such a stupid question thats like asking why vikings raided villages or why do people go to war.... some people just like destruction or they just like to take the easy way out and just steal what you worked so hard to get. If your dumb enough to play on a server that lets you grief then you deserve to be griefed its that simple guy now stop flooding this forum with stupid spam and come back when you have something real to talk about.
I don't see griefing funny in any way. Trolling, however, is a different story. Playing pranks on people - which can sometimes include altering their creations - isn't so bad so long as the damage can easily be undone. But completely ruining the work of others is pretty pathetic.

This is the same as asking: Why do people steal? Why do people murder? Why do people destroy other people's lives? It's mostly a mix of rage, revenge, insanity, and jealousy.
You're comparing criminals with people who take the opposite option than you in a sandbox video game. Minecraft gives us the ability to create and destroy, with more ways to do the former than the later. Why fault them for taking a different path?
Sometimes it is fun to take the more "negative" path in a game. That's why game developers offer the option to do so in many games now a days. Just look at Fable, recent Star Wars games, Skyrim, Black & White, etc.

There really isn't reason not to besides the occasional anti-griefing measures.
I have to admit, that it is pretty funny.
