I get pissed when people say gl hf because I take that as, "I don't want to talk to you, play"
I like to have conversation at the start of my games

wtf?
I get annoyed when people want to talk so much in the beginning
a simple gl hf is perfectly acceptable to me

Don't see anything objectionable about the topic so re-opening...

i don't really care when people leave without gging
i do it too when i didn't play well or i'm frustrated with something my opponent did

Well its never a good game if you lose then. Unless its the occasional epic games.
Hmm, I meant it more like if I think I played well/close to my full ability then I'll gg. Otherwise they are simply met with a sadface
|
I don't mind people leaving without typing gg. I mean, they lost, they're probably sad, I don't expect them to be all happily congratulating me on my win =P. I do find it BM when someone types GG for me though.
I usually type gg at the end, but at the start of the game I'm too lazy to do the whole "gl hf" ritual so it's always fun for me when the game starts with my opponent going "gl hf bro, how you doing today" and ends with him name-calling me before he quits^^;. There's more BM things than saying nothing
|
I only GG when the game doesn't involve cheese.

damnit I'm going to hear Borat's voice now when someone tells me gl hf

I don't mind people about gging, becouse there is no rule about it for other than progamers.
edit: haha at the "high five" ;D
|
LOLOL "High Five" xD Best post of this thread... xD. If people don't gg its normally cause they lose... and if they lose I can't exactly blame them for not saying gg cause I'm pretty sure the majority of people like winning... those who don't gg are just venting of rage b/c they did something stupid or they know they could've won I guess. On the other hand, if you are a bad player and someone tells you that... thats really offensive to me (happened to me when I first started playing ICCup for fun... I stopped playing SC till more friends joined the game after that...)
|
even if you think it wasnt a good game you should always gg before you leave, it's just how the SC culture is. as people said it's just like shaking hands at the end of other sport matches.
i always sorta find people who dont gg back to be more dickish though lol (as compared to people who leave 1st without gging)
worst iccup manners to me are:
people who change their race at the last second to try to get you to miss their race
people who ask from? (EVEN THOUGH ICCUP TELLS YOU WHERE IM FROM NOW) or other stuff and then usually do it while cheesing (its actually really funny because i always 9drone scout or something when my opponent is talkative because i expect cheese lol)
asking for re and then changing race last second and then i dont notice because i wasnt expecting it. ok this only happened once but fuck that guy
|
I normally gg but I don't give a fuck regardless, and voted that I don't care enough ...
it's stupid I already know I played good ..... I won
|
sometimes im thinking over the game and wat i did wrong and i forget to call GG >.< but no it doesnt really bother me if they dont say gg, and im pretty sure 'hf' means 'have fun'
|
I think it's considered Good manners to GM, but I don't think it's bad manners to not say it. I think it's ridiculous for it to be mandatory or expected.
My personal opinion is that it's a compliment. It's telling your opponent he was a worth opponent and his victory was not only earned, but entertaining.
To me to say it's BM is to say that if your an attractive woman that it's rude for a male to not compliment you, but this is just my personal opinion, and I get kinda annoyed w/ all the hype over such nonsense.
|
I'll remember all of your stupid comments the next time one of you thinks that one of your niche colloquialisms applies to the world at large and precludes all other interpretations.
Which is to say, it JUST HAPPENED.
(Why was the thread locked, by the way?)
|
i receive whispers about it too and wonder if these people whisper everyone that leaves without a gg. ... cause most people do.
|
If I play a really good, interesting, long, fun game, I might say GG.
I don't say GG if it's a bad game because
1. I can't be effed
2. Don't feel like being insincere just to appease peoples idea of manners
|
i used to GG just because i did it tons of time until it became automatic, but i dont think not saying gg is enough to overreact with "BM!!!" who cares, its the internetz
