I gg whenever my opponent 1.played really well and beats me or 2.when they gg to me.

I only gg to cheese, win or lose, if it was a particularly clever cheese. I'm often pretty BM to cheese and make an ass out of myself.

I always GG in tournaments, no matter what.
Until I write you again, take care of your precious person.

I'll only gg if I lost to something that impressed me.
Also, its quite amusing to see so many people thinking that if I leave a game w/o typing gg im probably nerd raging, while in fact I couldnt care less and thats why I cant be arsed to acknowledge your generic win.

typing gg litterally takes about 1 second tops and it shows respect to your opponent, makes him happy and makes the world a better place. you're practically going out of your way NOT to gg, especially because you know you should.

ya, i dont particularly find leaving without GG as bm as someone 'offensively' gg'ing you, like killing ur expo in TvP and having seiged up around ur natural or something and being like saying gg for you..
which is just like.. infuriating.
but ya, like the option says "i dont see a problem w/ it, i do it all the time".
mostly because i obviously don't feel as though it was a gg, because i lost.. =[
I mean sometimes if I feel that I played my best and was still bested.. then ya, i'll consider it a gg.. but in a case of like a speedling run-by or all-in where he gets lucky or something.. no i won't gg it, just leave.

on the other hand, I also dont mind if ppl leave without saying gg, no skin off my back. I often don't even say gg in reply to their gg, because I know the habit these days is to gg - then alt + qq so they normally leave the game b4 u can say anything... so I just let 'em say it or not.. and just game.

I'm pretty sure they couldn't care less that you didn't GG cause they won.
No GG is just a bonus to winning, whether you're actually raging or not.

if other people GG i sometimes just quit before them and give them the points

points are the only reason why the people who dont gg play anyways; also, its no where near as bad as ragequitting rofl, there was this guy i played who rage quit after dying to a 2 gate robo not proxy elevator

its either they dont care whether I gg, or its a 'bonus' to them, cant have it both ways. and you're just proving my point anyways.

It depends how badly I beat them.
If I wtf raped them then I usually dont care but if it was a close game, I mean really close and I feel that we both played really well, then it fucking annoys the fuck outta me. Also if its a long game it pisses me off too...

One of my friends don't gg when he plays right next to me, cause whats the point of gg'ing if the guy is right there infront of you. Still bothers me though lol

I personally think it feels really feels awkward when you're in the middle of doing something and all of a sudden he leaves, rather than saying GG.

It doesn't normally bother me, but sometimes I go "wtf just happened?" (Especially when I feel like I don't have that big of a lead)

PS: Offensive GGs are the worse as said before.


I think I won a game once and my opponent said gg and then I said gg... AND I FUCKING LEFT FIRST.

Re-read what I said... I won the game, but I left first because I have a habit of leaving the game after saying GG.


That almost happened to me in a 35min game last night. I was about to freak out, but I pressed Q only once. >.>

I don't have a big problem with not GG'ing, but I try and do it now. I had a big spree where I had a bad case of not saying GG but I've decided I might be a little nice.

I'm always pissed off when I get GG'ed back, however. It means they either had it prepared for when I say GG or they got it off faster than I could f10-e-s-q. And I am damn good at f10-e-s-q'ing.

If you wanna be uber bad manner, do this:

1. You are getting cheesed or you are cheesing

2. Defending cheese and crippling opponent, type to chat "gl hf"

3. succeeding cheese type "gl hf" (though much better if you use it on when defended cheese and have solid advantage)

For example, Terran bunker rushes you and you manage to defend it easily while terran lost a lot. Calmly type "gl hf" and wait some fun/angry comeback from opponent

I wouldnt say its bad manners,like what idra does, but more like no manners.Like people who dont say hi when they enter a game or in real life. Its not a big deal to me but its weird because its such a non thing to do, like why not type gg, what does it cost you?

I like it because I can tell myself that I played so well that they were so frustrated playing against me. Ego boost, imo.

I only GG if it was *actually a good game* or if I'm playing someone I highly respect such as friends or good players.

If it's just another random-ass guy in IC CUP who managed to proxy gate me why the hell should I make a statement that it was a good game?

there was this terran who denied my third expansion for like 10 minutes, he kept typing offensive GG throughout, i stayed in; i made a comeback, killed 3 of his bases and his army, he turtled in a second main and asked for re, i refused him and he fucking disc hacked on me

I only gg when it was ACTUALLY a good game, win or lose. Unless it's against a friend or someone else I might know... Why lie? Sure, it's the nicer thing to do, but if you don't think it was a good game, I don't think you should be forced to say it. I love StarCraft too much to lie while playing it
