I don't know about you, but where I come from people usually... quit at that point. Or occassionally show up to do the interesting stuff.

I'm not just talking about grinding mobs here. No sir. I'm talking about repeating anything for a reward. PVP points, raid drops whatever. It's all the same if you look at from a different perspective.
Considering Raids or PvP points as grinding would be a wrong statement to generalize though, don't you agree? I mean, yea, it contains many intention that are the same as they are about grinding, but that doesn't mean that they are grinding. PvP and grinding mobs is not the same thing to begin with. Then again, it surely also depends on how it has been implemented.

The trick with grinding is to make the player not realise they are grinding. Which is where all 'ingredients and psychological factors' come in.
I don't think that anything but grinding (hence, making EXP in Party/solo killing mobs and nothing else but that) is grinding.

Don't hate me for breaking down a load of deciding factors into a sentence that at least i believe and accept.
Lol.
