I just played a ZvZ and crushed him, he didn't "gg" and after the game I chatted him and said gg
Then he said hes been on a losing streak and lost becuase he did stupid shit and that he didn't gg becuase he was so mad when he quit.
Is anyone else like this ? I know for sure I am, even when I'm absolutely furious and someone says to "gg" to me in chat I reply with another gg and tell them to let me rage in peace ^^
That was alot of fucking ggs, holy shit o.O
And another question just thrown in there; what do you do when you are mad at *insert game here* to calm down ?


Sorry if you think this post is short and doesn't serve a purpose, well, it doesn't serve a purpose, it's a blog post

Why would you message him with gg? Are you trying to provoke him to flame you or something? You should never message someone after a game with "gg", its just rude its because he's mad.

No I don't gg when I lose except on the rare occasion but I never offensive gg or message them gg after I win just mean and you shouldn't do it...

As for when I get mad at xxx game here I just go to the next game.
When I think of something else, something will go here

Really ?
IMO it's not BM/provoking to send a gg after the game, if you do it before he leaves then I would agree with you.

I don't really see the big deal over people not gging. I understand to show respect blah blah. In a tournament game sure, But ladder its doesn't matter I gg sometimes but I never send someone a gg message if they just leave. I feel its more bm to offensive gg someone than to not gg at all, as blade said its just rude, and flame bait.

I would say if you win and he doesn't GG, going after and messaging him about it is pretty BM. You know he's angry, and you saying gg just rubs it in.

The only time I message someone with a gg after the game is if

A) they gg'd and left before I could gg back
B) They offensive gg and I win, or they cheese and I win.

Having said this, offensive gg is BM and I like rubbing it in their face. Cheese pisses me off but I completely understand it as a viable strat on ladder, it just feels so good holding it off.

Your post game gg doesn't fall into either of these categories. I'd just assume you were a dick if you msg'd me gg after the game (I acknowledge that I am a dick when I gg someone post game when they fail at their cheese.)

Don't get so hung up over it. We all have crappy games where we just don't feel like talking and want to be alone. I'm just surprised he didn't shoot some profanities back at you for gg'ing afterwards. (I might have done that lol)

Oh wait it's EU server where people are nice

BTW I now play on KR and in Gold, maybe 1/10 people say GG. Granted, small sample size, but most games end with him(/her? XD) leaving.

Agreed, the only time I ever do it is if they said something BM in the game... it's basically taunting your opponent.

I do this sometimes but i say "wp" instead. I of course don't mean to BM and I do find that saying "wp" isn't as offensive as "gg" cos sometimes the player will respond to me with "you too" or "wp" as well.
When your bases are ashes...then you have my permission to "GG".

When I gg after the game in chat I try to offer a détente like you had really good micro/macro or next time just do this and you'll be me.

But yeah, no, undoubtedly bm to message people that left after the game saying gg. You're not doing it to be manner, you're doing it to remind them who won. Ask yourself the next time you do it why you're doing it.

edit: I also almost always graciously type well played if I gg in a chat afterwards.

Wow, if I'm really frustrated about a game I just left without GG, and the other persons messages me and says GG I don't have any problems with that.People are different I guess...
And this wasn't a post to "brag" about me being BM towards the guy, it was kindof just asking if this ever happens to you.

Would you GG after someone chases you after the game to say good game?
I typically wouldn't. Then again, I usually don't say "thank you" if someone says "you're welcome" per-emptively.
