Whenever I lose a game I just want to gg my opponent and leave as quickly as a I can. I don't know why or how exactly it came about but I always try to leave before they GG. I guess its because I think of them snickering 'nenenene I won very handsomely' and curling the mustache while doing it. It makes me want to rage when people GG me, I never rage like ever. Maybe I rage offline or cry and sob because I'm /forevergold but I never bm or rage at anyone unless they bm me.

[image loading]
handsome? (no its not destiny).

I think I clearly need to do some non rage therapy, just get heaps of people to gg me all the time. I know that people dont ACTUALLY snicker when they win, or maybe some of you do. Does anyone else encounter this problem? I always tell the people I play with often that I hate it.

What most annoys me is when I cant quit before they GG me :/

I was actually just thinking about this the other day...I hate being told by my opponent that the game is over. I'LL tell you when I concede, I don't need you to do it for me

Most of my games recently have had zero chat in them... But if someone GG's me, I either say nothing or "wp' in return.

I'm pretty sure he's referring to his opponents gg'ing after he does. Not the offensive GG everybody (rightfully) hates.

I agree with the other posters

You: gg
Opponent: gg

Means to me that the opponent felt like it was a good game. Maybe they ARE actually mocking you, however I choose to take it that they are satisfied with the game as you are.

However:

Opponent: gg

Offensive GG annoys the hell out of me.

It always annoys me when I gg and leave a game and then the player messages me to gg. I mean, if I wanted to talk I would have stayed longer in the game.
How does it feel knowing you wasted another 3 seconds of your life reading this again?

no gg no skill

maybe you just want to be able to think your opponents don't have skill?

Atleast ur doing better then me, I allways want to GG when I lose.
But when it happens I get so frustrated about the game, mostly at myself that I just leave and requeue.

I always gg, so at least I have SOME skill. Yeah offensive GG's are annoying aswell. Like I dont have a problem when I gg someone back, if its a really trashy game and it just feels bad then its usually worse.

I expect a GG. If I loose game and I GG, I expect the winner to GG me back. I dont get angry if they GG me back after I have sent a GG in a game I know I have lost. On the other hand, if I play what I think is a good game, those touch n go types, and I end up loosing, and I send the GG, if the person who just beat me does not give a GG back, I try to make the game last as long as I can scattering pylons and nexus'all over the map.
I think its only manner to say GG back to someone who has just given you and GG, knowing they have been beat.
I always GG, win or loose. If someone1 leaves a game without a GG, I'm sure to give them a "GG Son"in chat after the game.

I was agreeing with you untill you said the last line.
Don't give people a GG Son in chat unless your looking to bother them.

I always start typing gg back when i win but they always leave before i press enter. Just like i try to do.

When someone offensive ggs me,usually after a cheese or something,I just think to myself:"You little bitch..."
But then there are exceptions.I had a few epic long games where the map was mined out and in the end I lost and the guy just says something like:"Wow,gg man",so the context is important i feel like.

I only gg back when they stick around waiting and it's apparent they are waiting for the gg because I know how it feels.

Day9 talks a lot about rage and StarCraft. It's totally natural. You're focusing on a highly-stressful event for something like 20 minutes, doing a lot of very taxing tasks at once, and if all of that work goes to waste at the end, chemically and biologically, you go insane! I "gg" and gtfo. I don't wait for my opponent to gg back. If someone's calls "gg," however, I manner-up and "gg" back. It's natural to be angry, but I don't gtfo because I don't like seen my opponent gg back, I do it because I'm mad that I lost

the question you should be asking is why the hell your opponents are gging when they win in the first place. the loser is supposed to gg, not the winner

ComaDose : I only do the GG Son if someone leave without saying anything. Even if I get spanked hands down, I still give a GG as a sign of respect. I expect the same to be done to me. I no likes rage quits
