I don't manner mule on ladder, I think it's rude and unnecessary. Sometimes I do it when I'm playing with my friends but in form of friendly bm. I don't see a difference between manner muling and saying "gtfo noob".

If someone manner mules, simply type this:

"OMG you misclicked your mules! Lucky for you you'd already won."

Totally back-foots them.
The existence of a food chain is inescapable if we evolved unsupervised, and inexcusable otherwise.

Manner muling is the shit! Love doing it
To all the haters: you deserve to witness many, many more Serral victories, worthy of the godlike player he is.

Mules are great. Free units, soak up some damage and heal your mech, guaranteeing you the win.

Totally legit ¬_¬
I will reduce you to a series of numbers.

I only manner mule, if my opponent opened with a cheese/all in. If i hold I know I'm ahead and if i can take advantage and know I'm going to win for sure then I manner mule. I don't really respect opponents that open with cheese or do an all in. I personallly think its just relative though. none the less it can get irritating if you were well mannered and he did manner mule then i'd agree. other then that I am indifferent on this matter cuz it goes both ways for me.

"Something about it just annoys the hell out of me. It is like the terran saying "LOOK HOW EZ I WIN, I DONT NEED THEZE MULEZ!!1!" "

Yeah I agree, if they wanna bm they should just say it out loud like a man.

I don't see it as a big deal, people should be allowed to have some fun. Also, I don't really even see it as BM to me it seems like it is for people who just want to have some fun.

So what I've noticed is that this stuff elicits different responses from nearly anyone. I personally couldn't care less when someone rains mules down or builds like 20 nexuses (nexi?) on the map. I know I'm far from the best player in the world, so playing against someone who outplays me that hard doesn't bother me that much.

The only "BM" I even remember was a guy who rushed for a large cloaked banshee fleet which I didn't scout, rushed in and typed GG after nearly every kill. So I BM'ed him right back and just started building EVERYWHERE so he could have fun flying around the map. I actually had a good laugh out of it because he was so vocal about everything.

Anyway, in the end it's a game, sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. Doing other fun stuff while you're winning is fine, and so is doing fun stuff while you're losing, like watching if your SCV train even reaches a group of colossi annihilating your base. Or muling in the middle of a biomine ball to see if the mine would hit the enemy (it did once). There aren't many people out there who are genuinely trying to ruin the experience of others, most are just having fun themselves.

I think it's not nice, but it's ok. Since, depending on far you are behind, sometimes those mules can make a difference.
I have won quite some games where I have been muled. And that feeling.... oh that feeling... just amazing
I figured out the EG Curse. It was set in motion by Voodoo Shamans working for Millenium. Whenever EG aquires a player, Voodoo energies start slowly draining skill from the EG guy into an Millenium newcomer. Think about it!

I manner mule everyone except terran players (and sometimes those too, depending on how obnoxious they play, but it's quite rare)
So... what that make you? Good? You're not good. You just know how to hide, how to lie

I'm kind of an angry player (I often rage when losing to stupid things), but I really don't mind manner muling or dancing units... I don't know, it just doesn't offend me, plus in the case of manner muling I like the aesthetics (mules dropping from the sky are so cool).
I find way more offensive people that don't answer when you say hf, or just go ahead and tell you how fucking terrible you are when you lose or win, or say an offensive gg (I don't know, to me saying gg first is more like "lol you suck get out", when manner muling is more like "yay I might have won", but it's kind of a personnal interpretation xD).
I only manner mule when it really has been a good game and I also do it when I lose. I never have been able to get enough orbitals to write "wp it was fun" so that the guy doesn't get mad

The game is about winning and losing, no one cares about how hard you win or lose.

This is where you're wrong. Offensive gg'ing and manner muling are pretty different, for one reason - offensive gg'ing is using "out-of-game" stuff (verbal) to get a rise/take the piss. Manner mules are just using the mechanics of the game to say "look, don't even NEED these".

Same with manner nexuses, manner mass-scans, */dances* or whatever. If you're using the mechanics of the game to demonstrate your superior position, then there shouldn't be a problem.

I write offensive ggs =) It's basically the same thing: telling my opponent I dominated him and he is too bad to have another chance of winning the game. I like it. Makes me feel superior to those noobs I bash into the ground =)

That's the dumbest stuff I have read in a while. It does not matter how you tell your opponent to get the f*uck out of your game. It is still the exact same message, lol.

Please don´t start discussing if offensive gging and manner mules are the same, it´s obviously not. O.o
