griefer
n.— «Frerichs is what the online world calls a griefer—someone who plays to make others cry. They stalk, hurl insults, extort, form gangs, kill and loot. Although a tiny percentage of the millions who play online games, griefers are prolific in sowing distress and driving away thousands of paying customers.» —“Bullies Give Grief to Gamers Internet” by Alex Pham Los Angeles Times Sept. 2, 2002.
