nothing like ruining someone else's fun to make you feel like a big e-man
Exactly.

What is with kids these days and labeling ever single thing they don't like as 'griefing'??? Sorry, but not everything ingame ismade of gingerbread, cookies, and lemon drops. Not everything is going to be 100% fair. If you want that go play a FPS. This is an MMO and we are bounty hunters. I am going to use every tactic to my advantage when trying to kill my mark. I will blow up swoops, BARCs, and jetpacks. I will wait until you are at half health before I jump you. I will use everything in my arsenal to give a Jedi XP Loss. Absolutely NONE of this is griefing. These are actions we can do because the developers put them ingame. If you don't like it then I suggest you wear a helmet because things won't get any easier.
Kids? Give me a break, it's griefing when the only reason why he chose that time to attack him was to make him pay 500k to get the jetpack replaced. He knew he had little tono chance and he was even proud of being able to run away.

my favorite thing to do back in the day was to take out a 40k HAM AV-21 
that to me was better than killing the jedi lol

You just described one of the primary reasons for being a BH in this game, congratulations.
Let's face the truth we don't hunt Jedi for the money, or the pvp.
We just like to see them squirm and panic when they see us in our comp.
In other words, you are a sadist.
And for the record: there are numerous reasons for being a BH. I have two BH chars. One is MBH, one will be by the end of the week. I have never hunted players, but that´s my personal choice. Its perfectly acceptable to engage in a Jedi hunt, and seing hordes of glowbat wielders showing off in front of every major starport certainly tempts meat times. But there is necessity and there is cruel intention. If you disable a vehicle to prevent your mark from running, that is a necessary precaution, even if it turns out you can´t handle the mark. But if you just blow up someones virtual property to teach him a lesson, thats being a bully.
On a general note: its funny how people complain about Jedi all day but have no quarrels aboutwhining for a slot in a Jedi/AoE/spinning group to speed up their grind.

And I guess jedi screaming for "Triple Incap" isnt griefing?
i thought the triple pvp decay bug was gone. if not, then no, triple is just as bad.
the whole bh/jedi forced pvp brings out the very worst class of players, and is nothing but a continuing train wreck. i will be so glad when it goes away like all other forced pvp.

Just a shot in the dark here... Was the jedi's name Slightly Stoopid? I only ask cuz I saw him with a friend that had a jet pack behind the Theed starport. I had his mission once but he must have been house sitting for someone .lol He wouldn't come out & play
Actually who was not to bright was the guy who gave a Jet pack to a Jedi...

As far as I know and have seen Triple incap is nothing more than a humiliating slap down. Which is griefing to a degree.

Very to the point. On your general point...I think that is called Irony...

This was not a tactic to stop someone getting away, it was just someone with low self esteem wanting to grief another player for no practical reason at all. You got pwned, you were annoyed about that, you knew you couldn't take out your mark because you suck so bad, so you took your opportunity to blow up his jetpack as a 'I get the last laugh' tactic. You are pathetic.
And before any noobs start telling me I'm just some whining Jedi - please enjoy the following screenshot:

From the looks of your log you got him while trying to get away. Perfectly fine tactic. I really don't think many in this thread have the capacity to understand what it is that you wrote so don't hold your breath.
