So I ended up losing to him and didn't bother GG'ing since he said that earlier. He messaged me after the game and essentially cussed me out for only saying GL and not adding in the HF. He said only saying GL implies he needs luck to beat me and it's just plain rude. I think "GL" is fine, i think it's still good manner and I think this guy is crazy. So what do you guys think, should it always be GLHF or is a simple GL fine? | ||

In all seriousness, just say whatever you want. They are probably gonna BM you whatever you say if they BM you for just leaving out HF. | ||

It's just somebody looking for an argument. If it wasn't that, it would have been something else. Trolls abound on bnet. | ||

and if you really did mean gl in some condescending way then I'd still think a "fuck you" is still uncalled for as a response. | ||

Only GL can be seen as rude, but the guy took it too seriously... if you really care about these pleasantries I'd just go the extra mile (2 letters), you never know who your playing against. | ||

Yeah exactly. I know people are just trolls and tend to be rude just because they can. I just wish more people would play the game and have fun and not do their best to either piss someone off or be rude just for the sake of being rude. When Idra does it, he creates drama and tension and it adds to the tournaments he's in. When random people do it on ladder it's just stupid and people just end up on ignore lists. | ||

I don't see how that is such a crime against TL :/ | ||

It's like responding to a waiter who says, enjoy your food, "fuck off I don't need your opinion" ..... I seriously wish people would start getting their act together over the internet. | ||

That being said, it's fine with me if you just say GL. I really don't mind, other than I don't believe you. | ||

Gl means your cheesing or something all-inish and your saying that your opponent needs luck to survive. glhf means your decent at the game but your lacking the polishing touches to roflstomp. gl hf means you know what your doing. however i believe if you gl/glhf/gl hf before your opponent your showing your confidence. I always try to get it out before my opponent. | ||

That being said I remember InReach made a big speech once on how saying glhf makes no sense because he refuses to wish his opponents luck which always struck me as a bit spergy and funny but at least had some logic behind it. | ||
