Seriously, it's getting ridiculous. I can hardly go a single day without making some dickheaded remark instead of "gg", and regretting it 2 minutes afterwards. I don't understand why I do it, but I do anyway.

I honestly regret it, and I apologise to everyone I've been rude to, but at this point it hardly means anything because I'll inevitably do it again sooner or later. So if anyone has been able to reform themselves from assholery I'd like to hear your input.

Sorry for the low content blog, but i wanted to get it off my chest. Maybe now that this is out in public I'll think twice next time..

I do the same thing due to the games I played in the past were more competitive and egotistical. Managing it better though with just a gg or saying nothing at all.

I think you need a bit of help being stricter with yourself. How about this: next time you don't gg properly and are bm in some way after a game, you pm me and I temp ban you for 2 weeks.

LOL ^^

OP: Don't sweat it man. If I'm working hard to get the win for 20minutes and then the opponents starts talking trash, then I know I got the game in the bag AND I've given a douche a beating. If a person gg's I gg back if the game was played standard. If I cheese and he gg's it makes me never wanna cheese again.

I don't see why you feel bad for shit-talking people. Its just Bnet man. If you were playing against someone who knew/respected or were playing in a public tournament I could understand needing to control yourself, but its Bnet man. Bnet is where you let out your anger on random noobs

As for getting out of the shit-talking habit. I just focus on the mistakes I made during the game and immediately go into a reflective state. That being said, it isn't abnormal to tell someone they are garbage, have no skill etc. I'll do it occasionally if I'm in a bad mood and get cheesed. I always say GG to people who outplay me though

I don't care if I get trashed talked when I'm winning, but trashed talk when I'm in a losing streak.. that's when I turn to a prick...

well actually I'm kidding, I'm pretty manner now since I'm here to improve and not waste my time with petty trashtalks.
I don't think I've ever wished my opponent good luck prior to a game. When I play, I play to win. I hope every opponent I ever have is cursed with fucking terrible luck. I hope they're stuck playing underneath a stepladder with a black cat in attendance a

Yeah, you just can't let it get under your skin and make your mood worse. Otherwise its harmless and sometimes amusing.

Lol same thing with me but I don't feel bad afterwards.
Some of my quotes today:
"Yea terran's fair"
"Yea bullshit all ins somehow don't make you a better player. What a suprise" (in response to a guy failing 4 wrapgate on me and then complaining about how he was bad at micro)
"You play like a fag" (in response to a guy rushing me with lings and roaches off 1 base and putting 2 spine crawlers behind my natural hatchery"
"Must be easy to win with units your opponent can't attack" (in response to me being roflstomped by dts )
Morrow on ZvP: "I'm not very confident in general vs Protoss because of the imbalance (Yes its imbalanced, get over it)."

So you don't feel bad about immaturely making the sc2 community less enjoyable for everyone?

The last one was funny though haha.

You have to work in baby steps.
First, try not gging at all and just leaving the game at first
then slowly, just type just g, signifying you understand that you both played a game.
Eventually, slowly start adding semi positive things to the g, such as "You don't make me want to kill myself, g", "I lost this game, g", "you beat me, g", "average, g", etc.

God I trash talk so hard on ICCUP.

I lose to some dude in a poor country:
"You faggot, you are probably poor and you beat me in SC, congrats fag"

or I lose to some Hispanic user
"Of course you are from ____, why did I not expect cheese from you, you fucking noob"

lol

lol, i do this every now and then when it's justified (EDIT: when I think it's justified; perspective, perspective) or when i wanna vent. i hate how players can follow you out of a game and start whispering to you. by then i'm already midway into another game and i just don't care to argue any more.

and for your dt response, i make it a general rule to build an overseer the second a toss starts losing, cause 90 percent of the time, they're going dt.
How's the weather down there?

Hey if it makes you feel batter, I remember seeing your name in a 1v1 once.
You gged at the end, and actually said wp, so you don't do this all the time clearly.

Very mannered, I thought

If you honestly regret it then that is the person you are. Think about that regret when you know you are losing next time and end it on a friendly note.

If you don't honestly regret it then you are an asshole like a lot of us are to people online, and imo it's not much to be ashamed of. It doesn't imply anything about your personal life, maybe just what's underneath. I personally have no qualms about dishing out some hate towards people who I believe did not deserve to win over me (luck does play a part in SC, and I try to be realistic).

you'll find that if you say something that isn't totally mean, more often than not, your opp will help you out a little and be like "ya, nice try. just do this next time. gg". then your brain will be like "hmmm, what!? he was nice to me??" and you'll start liking it.
