This. Typing gg back to guy who insta leaves is pointless as he doesn't see that. If the game is ladder game who cares, there is nobody see it.

i say gg even when i lose to 4 pool's
|
Usually I never GG fast enough, so it looks like a never GG, but in practice, I'm so surprised that I win sometimes, that I am dumbfounded.

For me to be GM is doing as pros do - gg'ing when u lose, typing gg back when one gg's... (Yeah, also typing zizi yO, dancing around opponent's booth :p jk)

Well if opponent types "gg" and insta leaves he wont see anything you type, so many just wont type back at all.
So many people wont type anything inside game, I consider that game good manner but if opponent starts asking "from?" quality goes down 
Not Saying GG, long discussion about it
|
imo gg is like shake hand... and its polite to do it in everysport in everygame
|
i always GG and then leave as soon as i can
gg, alt-QQ, alt-f4, launch counterstrike and vice-versa if i die a lot in CSS.
|
i hate it when the winners type gg before me if i'm losing... very much ;(

When ever this happens to me, I float my buildings to the opposite ends of the map, and then alt tab out an do something else.

I don't know how much you care about improving at the game but wow you're just destroying your own practice time to spite your opponant.

it's not a big deal, but i just found it weird. is it supposed to mean that it wasnt a good game? =/
of course when i win, people usually just leave...
iono, it bothers me.
Depends, maybe the player you were competing against didn't feel the match was "good enough" or didn't think he played so well by making a lot of mistakes. But normally if the match is indeed good I always say a gg in return if I win.

I dont really care about this GG at all tbh. when its a real good game ill say it, when its some retarded game I dont.
I just say GG when the game is actualy a good game.
|
"enter gg enter alt+q+q" has become such a habit for me that occasionally when my opponent says gg but doesn't leave quickly I end up quitting first.
Nowadays gg doesn't take its literal meaning at all, so I just type it all the time to be polite, not a big deal if people don't respond similarly though.
|
when people say gg to me, I always try to say gg back to them before they leave the game. Is that just me?
|
Both sides should say gg. I always say gg
|
i don't say gg when im pissed as hell like right now. >_> fuck gg(good games) when u lose to a horrible lame strategy theres no good game in that

When someone say GG when i cheesed him i feel bad. It doesn't happen so much thankfully.

About the GG in general, i consider too, that it should be used to say that it was a Good Game. I find kinda stupid that if you fuck it up hard and you're pissed at yourself, or your oppnent does some wierd cheese which annoys the hell out of you, you are still supposed to say GG, else you are BM. On iccup you rarely play really good games, because there are a lot of smurfs who just roll you over no matter what, a lot of players who cant do anytinhg but allin, not talking about the tone of abusive shit, like racepick-glitch and other stuff a lot of ppl do. Or simply are assholes, refuse to communicate, to say where are tehy from, or lie about thier real rank, dont let you pause etc. Why the hell should you say to these guys GoogGame? If you put it simple, you lie. I understand that the games require some kind of formal closing thing, but why GG, why not sg which means "I surrender" or "you won" or anything, like FF in DotA.
I personally don't GG if the game wasnt enjoyable, only if i know who i'm playing, or the guy talks a couple words to me at the start or at the end. And i'm not offended when others leave without GG, even if it was a straight up game, if he does not feel like that, it's not my concern. I dont play to collect GGs. OFC on a Touranment not gg-ing is really BM because it's the part of the official gaming, but on ladder? Who cares about nonsense manner rules like this?

Courtesy gestures in sports are overrated. Particularly between amateurs, nobody sees it anyway, you've got nothing to gain. How pointless.
|
I think that people should gg back, but I'm not particularly offended if they don't. There could be a various of reasons. They may be so intense they don't even care about the text on the screen. They could just not type gg because every time they try, the other guy leaves before they have a chance to type it. I normally type gg, wait about 3 seconds and if they don't type anything I'll leave
