what's a grifter? someone called me a grifter, I thought I was a decent player but apparently I pay a certain way that offended this person enough to label me a grifter but I don't know what that is.

[cronshaw]

A grifter is a con man
Not sure if it has some gaming specific connotation

[ThatOddGuy]

It was probably some kid who just heard the word and thinks it's an insult haha.

 

Either that, or you gotta quit yer griftin'. man. You're upsetting people again.

It can also mean someone who works @ a sideshow or fair, so kind of like a carnie....

 

I tend to think the person who called you that, has no idea what it means.

Do you even google?

[mass chuck]

yeah googled it to see if there was some special mass effect 3 meaning to it but I found nothing, that's why i turned to you wise people of the forum

Maybe they thought you were playing too much like ziegrif

[mass chuck]

no we were on reactor I was running around destroy everything and I had at least 5 revives, I know I was fine it was just that he tossed this grifter term at me like it was something I should know, aside from calling me a noob too which I found funny.

1) randoms are morons and have no clue what they are talking about 95% of the time
2) who cares what some loser playing Mass Effect 3 called you?

Stop stealing my credits and kills, ya grifter.

Maybe they thought they were saying griefer.

 

I would have told them they were an idiot, but that's just me.

This.

I wouldn't pay any attention to what someone calls you. I'm called a scrub all the time usually on a daily basis, I should get different friends. But to randoms I just say something horrible about their mothers and block them. I learned that from b00gie.

[capn233]

It was because they have been watching Fargo.

[cronshaw]

This.

I prefer to imagine they were saying grifter and there is some fast talking gamer who likes to use old-timey jargon out there.

[Kirrahe Airlines CEO]

I'm guessing the dude meant to say griefer but didn't know how to spell it. What's the full story?
