Why, oh forum, why?

 

I mean, I could understand if it was a level grind, because one could even argue that "HUR DUR HE IS TOP LEVEL HE GETS BETTER GUNS AND KILLS ME, ITS UNFAIR"

 

But when its a money grind, why do you care? It doesnt affect your gameplay in any way. Why do you spend your time reporting to rockstar and hating on grinders?

 

Its the exact same concept of homossexual hate. You dont like what they are doing even though it does not affect your life at all.

 

TL;DR = GRIND HATERS = HOMOSSEXUAL HATERS = BAD PEOPLE THAT WILL GO TO HELL.

No problem with grinders, the way I see it, if I don't like something I don't have to be a part of it. If its their choice they can do what ever they want.

I don't think hatred on grinders is quite on par with hatred on homosexuals.

I mean, I haven't heard of anyone being beat up in real life because they were a grinder.

If this forum was a real life meet up you dont think it would be a bit bloody?

 

I for instance would vote to burn alive those who reported grinds to rockstar.

I've made half a million dollars in the game already just by doing the criminal activities alone.

 

It is a satisfying job, a job I would love to have IRL.

Because they have external loci of control and would rather focus their time and attention on the environment and actions of others to avoid full responsibility for their own lack of ambition or success.

Wtf. This whole online is grinding. Microtransactions wouldn't work with out grinding. You realize playing the same missions over and over is a grind right?

they grind RP aswell

I can get why people would see it as cheap because it is

but who cares it's just a game and if people prefer cheap victories

who are we to Judge?

not like we're morally superior or anything it's just a game as long as you're having fun you're doing it right

I'm sorry, new here. My nerd lingo is a little rusty. Whats a grinder in nerd talk, exactly? It seems to have a different meaning then the one I've grown to know. The grind I know of means you work hard; whereas this grind hints at something being easily achieved. Is that it?

 

If so I dislike grinders.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

No the grind is made slightly easier, but I don't think ding something for 1 hour and a half is "Easy work"

It's human nature. If I lay some money out in to 4 piles on the table, who wouldn't take the pile with the highest amount, time and time again?

I am confused also.

 

In RPG's you would grind to get a higher level to maybe have an easier time in the next section. It was boring and repetitive.

 

Grinding in this game is the same right? So what is the big deal. You grind to make money....isn't that the point anyways though?

You take a Mission with a high payout Violent duct or at 24 steal the titan, and replay it over and over and over. Personally i did it to afford my Apartment and to get my low level friends caught up. Do Steal the Titan 20 times and yall are rolling in the dough at the end.

Oh, ok.

Well, I don't think its that bad. Boring, yes. I wouldn't do it because I rather enjoy the game, but no reason to hate someone who does this.

Dont get me wrong i dont care. I will play this game many times. You grind to rank up. Then after rank up is when people will start playing the games with each other. When free roam will become a blood bath. Im gonna be sniping people, mini gunning people, rolliing up on em in a noose truck with 5 of my friends, mini gunning people(so excited im gonna do this twice!), rpgs, sticky bombs.

 

Free roam has yet to even come close to unveiling is possibilities because there arent volumes of players with that ability yet. So free roam has yet to expand.

 

But ill be top level at some point so i dont give a sh*t what other people do.

 

That said i love free roam. Obviously to really enjoy free roam it must be FA not AA. Then you get a friend and get ina fast car with bullet proof tires. Or later on in the game be able to mod 4 door cars with turbos n sh*t. Then roll around and kill the f*cking sh*t outta people. Eventually me and my friend will have killed all the other 14 players in teh room. Thus causing them to want to stick around. Theyll want to kill us back. Also people will have more money to waste later in the game. So say these people are all putting bouties on us and we have an entire room of people tryign to kill us.

 

omgeezy i cant wait for this point in time. Its coming. IM gonna kill hundreds of players a night. cant freakin wait. Which only makes the servers being down more frustrating.

 

 

This game still hasnt even begun yet.

people hate grinders for a simple reason they are jealous. they want the best stuff but they dont want to put in the work. most the time they will think it perfectly acceptable to just spend RL money and buy the car or apt. but lo behold you grinded for the same things you are a cheater and scum.

 

to me grinders put in at least the time. thats way better then anyone who just bought it with RL money. see I enjoy grinding I like to play vs myself and try to beat my best times etc... I make it fun for myself to grind so its not like a chore if i get bored of 1 mission i change it up and grind another that is similar in money. (i dont just do violent duct)

people hate on grinders for being lazy, but if you only did each activity once I don't think you'd be very wealthy or high ranked.
