Not waiting for GG, at least for a few seconds, basically means you don't want reassurance that no matter how bad you think you played, your opponent still had fun in the game, and in fact you hate positive reinforcement because it makes you feel good, aka you hate feelings of elation and/or a general positive state of mind and are therefore and emo bitch and/or you hate yourself. tl;dr: you hate yourself | ||

I feel bad posting just that, it'll probably get me a warning. I thought it would be funny though as you said 'GG therapy where tonnes of people spam you with GG'. But anyway, I only ever gg someone back if i believe they truly played a game worth ebing proud of. Forever silver here speaking, but I do have some decent fun and challenging games at my level. However when I lose I also leave as soon as I type 'GG' for similar reasons, I fear the other player smirking over their win. And it is a horrible thought. | ||

You should be able to configure something to change that. I know that was the first thing I did after I found out my Dell laptop has this. I'd assume saying good game started as a sign of respect after a game ended, either congratulating the winner or the winner congratulating the loser for putting up a tough fight. Now it seems to be an obligation like saying "thank you" and even meaning "it's over" or "all is lost" because it's usually said after everything is over. I for one can recall that the first time I someone typed gg about 5 years ago or so it felt like a sign of respect ... So, unless it's an offensive gg, there shouldn't be anything to be hurt about. | ||

Anyways, I might seem bad mannered, but I'm not. Whenever I lose a game, I just forget to GG, completely. All I do is just f10+n and click find match, (mainly because I'm pissed off at the fact that I lost) yet I actually do rage more than any person I've ever known/heard of. (Not ingame or anything necessarily, but have broken a keyboard :<) | ||

I expect the same to be done to me. I no likes rage quits It's not a rage quit necessarily. The custom isn't a hard rule. GG'ing ppl after they've left a game is basically bad manners. You're effectively rubbing it in, exactly the type of GG the OP is worried about. It's only a step below offensive gg'ing. Also to the guy who hides shit when he loses because his opponent doesn't gg back - this is just a way to make yourself annoyed man. I used to do that when I first started playing bw "Oh the guy won't gg back? Fine time to hide shit. Fucker" In fact its a common reason people type gg and immediately leave. To stop themselves getting annoyed (at least initally - obviously later you just get used to it). | ||

If you try to leave before he says gg, just hit f10 + n immediately after saying gg to quit the game. | ||

I'm not going to go with the clichee saying 'It's just a game', because some people do take it seriously and put their hearts on line when SC2 is concerned, however, a simple respect & courtesy shouldn't be excluded from it, no matter what. | ||

I think this wanting to quit really fast before your opponent types gg back basically means that your attitude towards losing a game of SC2 is something along the lines of "Damn, I have been utterly humiliated by this random person on the internet, I'd better run away now." I just think that's not a very healthy attitude to have. | ||
