I only do it occasionally. It's fun to do it against people with Fantasy GG timings, or those who have Bm'd you before the game. Sometimes I do it after an extremely sweet and close game, where I barely edge out, but in these situations it's more of a release of pressure than BM kind of thing.

Oops, accidentally voted that I agree with you. I don't.

While I should have taken the time to read it more, I think you could have made things easier by arranging the response towards the topic rather than towards you. Pretty egoistic too.

I agree, I dislike manner mules as much as I dislike offensive GGs. However, I do not have Fantasy gg timing, and I can understand manner muling against people who refuse to resign when they cannot win. The problem is that 90% of manner muling by pros is not done against late ggs, and therefore I see it as rude.

I actually kinda used manner muling as an offensive GG, and only when they are being BM and not leaving a lost game.

I really don't understand what you mean. I stated my opinion about a topic using my past experiences. How on earth am i ecocentric?

I agree, it's absolutely the same as "offensive gg", but for some reason it is considered "cool". Double standards ftw!

It shows personality, Don't know why everyone wants everyone to be super respectful and talk about how great their opponent was. Trash talk and bm creates story lines which is great, makes games between the two players really interesting.

It has to do with nurturing a positive, mature, and professional environment. I really don't see how acting like a douchebag can be viewed as "interesting" or entertaining, but then again The weakest link is a thing, so what do I know?
In any event, the amusement of the viewers should never come before the considerations to the individual players.

It's like making manner nexuses or something, it's just harmless fun imo

I want to see a manor inject.

Build Hatch in enemy natural, inject. Wonder if TLO could pull it off if I asked nicely.

random ladder game with just you and your opponent watching, it is bm as hell cause you only want to upset your opponent.

in a live tournament though I consider it more a tool to engage the crowd. it has it's place.

I don´t see Manner Mules as offensive , your enemy is literally burning ressources.
I switched from Terran to Zerg, and there is one thing that I really miss ...manner mules.

It would have been better if you had a poll. One persons opinion isnt enough for us to know if thats a good point or not.

Sounds like you are pretty disappointed in your own play

....might as well just add manner nexus and manner hatcheries into this as well...and any type of them is completely fine.

Manner muling is fine. It's not an issue at all.

If you're getting pissed because of BM, you're just falling into their hands.

Its a way to let off steam after the adrenaline of a big win. He's not cursing, he's not telling you to leave, he's just excited. I think the manner nexus or manner hatch is much worse, but even then if this is what counts as BM I think we can find ourselves lucky.
