I think i've gg'd every game i've ever played, except one which I got disconnected this past week, with battle.net acting up. Even if the guy trolls me, I just gg every time. I also don't really mind when they don't gg. The only thing that annoys me are people who offensive gg. That's pretty BM in my book, only assholes do that. But I still gg those people when I leave lol.

also i pretty much never cheese in 1v1. i've never 6 or 7 pooled, except a couple times when playing 3v3 with my 2 zerg friends, which is rare since we haven't completed our placement matches yet.

I don't get why some silly house rules from bw are forced upon us when playing ladder. I couldn't care less about it. If I don't gg it doesn't mean I'm raging, and it doesn't mean I'm disprespecting my opponent. It means I don't think the game was good. Which is what gg means after all.

I play a lot of custom matches, it's a big surprise to me when I get a GG at the end of the game. People give the reason that as it's only a custom game, there's no need to GG.

Yet on ladder people that I've played tend to be annoyed they've lost points and either leave with a bitter comment or without a word.

I think everyone skips a GG now and then, but it's the stupid insults at the end of the game that are annoying. From my limited experience it seems master league players are the worst when it comes to justifying their loss based on racial balance or tactics.

I usually don't GG or even say GL HF. I dont wanna say it, just to say it. When I play tourneys I always say it of course, but laddering is different for me. It's just another random opponent who I will probably never talk to again. And personally I couldn't care less if the person says GL HF or not.
Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. That is why it is called the present.

It's basic ettique. I gg every game regardless. But sometimes I do let my emotions get the better of me.

I only gg if it's true, when I get 2gate allin'd I don't. Always start with gg hf though, it's a manner thing.

Since I never gg either, it feels really stupid when people gg and stay in the game like they're waiting for me to type gg. : )

I only GG when it was a good game.. PvP 4gate v 4gate doesn't deserve a gg..
If the game was shorter than 12 minutes, it doesn't deserve a gg either.

I type GG 100% of the time even if i get cheesed or anything else, i mean even if i play bad and do not think it was a good game no need to take anything away from my opponent who did the necessary to win, no matter how gay or frustrating it was. A win is a win, and a loss requires one to type GG, imo.

GG is overrated in my opinion. It is so common that has lost its true meaning.
If I have a good game and lose I will gg but that is rare. Normally I don't gg unless I win and the opponent says it first.

It is nothing personal for me, I am just bored to type it for a shitty game I played.
The same applies for gl hf.

Yeah I only gg if I mean it. Otherwise it's a stale, unfelt, and uncaring way of saying "I lose." if you say it every single game.

Most games I will type out "good game" since the true meaning of "gg" has been destroyed by overusage.

I gg whenever I lose the game, even if the opponent takes me by cheesing, but I now think that might be too kind for them...

Maybe they don't gg because to them, it wasn't a good game? More importantly, does it even matter?

If only that was true, and that is the problem. I forgot to add this in the OP. But after a really good game against protoss. 4 Bases both and I went ling bling corrupter broodlord. A really action packed game. My opponent leaves without gg.

I typed to him why he thought it wasn't a gg, and back then I didn't even believed yet there were people that don't gg because there is no rule to gg...
He replies and curses me, telling me I was BM to message him...

But it doesn't matter whether the game itself was good or not, it comes down to the loser's perception. He lost, therefore it wasn't a good game for him which you can understand. Not everyone can and will step back after losing and rationalise how entertaining/good the game was. People just think and act differently and there's no correct/wrong way to end a game. People get too hung up on this bm stuff.

I haven't seen a gg from an opponent for... I think months now. Everyone just rage quits and calls you a noob for beating them.
