If you leave without saying GG, then you probably are either bad mannered, or didnt enjoy yourself. I know if I lose to something like double proxy gateways in 2v2, I wont say GG, or some other kind of cheese. Because it means just that, that it was a good game, so its not meant to be said when the game was shit. When your opponent says GG: Great, it means he concedes. Finish him, cause you havent won yet. If he wants to have a friendly chat, or I do, thats fine. Ill kill him, and then chat to him outside the game. get the win, then chat. dont let your opponent rebuild after he conceded, and dont let your opponent do any sort of funky play, dont go afk or something stupid like that. He concedes, make sure you actually have the win, and then chat or go afk. If someone wants to chat while I kill all his stuff, Ill often actually tell them to leave the game, and then we can chat. If they dont leave the game, then Ill keep on killing them. | ||

Against strangers in ladder games its just bm. Yeah, thats alright if your practising with someone you know, but when you are doing ladder games with randoms then it does get very annoying. Today i did a 2v2, we won, 1 person from the other team left half way through, and the person after he GGed, he waited till every unit of his died, which was annoying because he had a few air units in each corner of the map :| Also the other day I did a 1 v 1, tried out a reaper rush, just seeing how well it works, and then he put in capitals "YOU ARE NO FUN" and left, i did laugh a lil at that though  | ||

just casually mention why i think i lost, he'll either agree with me, tell me something differant, or just say nothing at all. in many cases ive met practice parts by just saying "and thats why i open 9rax" after their proxy fails | ||

Still though, I myself have been in several situations where I was about to GG or already did and then noticed that the other guy was not in as strong a position as I thought he was. The earlier posted example of a guy not macroing at all while he kills your expansion has happened to me too. So what do you do in a situation like that? Do you just quit a perfectly fine and close game because of the stat system? I fully acknowledge that I've lost by surrendering, even though the actual in-game situation might not have resulted in a loss. However, is it truly such bad manners to try and continue the match and notifying the opponent of this in this case? I was under the impression I was playing SC2 because of the game, not because of it's ladder system. | ||

Then I come destroy his expansion... he GGs again. What is this? I mean I'm playing in silver so it's a lot lower level of competition so maybe the etiquette isn't strong there. That's just dirty though. | ||

But gg is like "I concede, good game" to a lot of people, which is why I think people get pissed about this (myself included). Chess players would get worked up if you tipped their king over when you thought they had no way out. Sure they can pick it up and keep playing but god damn that would be annoying. | ||
