It's a nice idea but as mentioned, some of those seem really forced to me. I dunno, I usually gg most games unless I got BM'd and if I feel like my opponent really outplayed me, etc.... I'll gg wp them

I BMd the fuck out of people who do something silly before, then afterwards I realised it´s just a waste of time. However I GM people I truly think outplayed me a lot and if I win a game that I feel like I didnt deserve I often times give a tip to the other guy after the game is over so he/she wont lose to my bullshit again.

Gave ostijoy a heads up yesterday that he played well through the na invitational and gl in future tourneys.

I really had to push myself to gg him as I got 6 pooled in this same game.

Honestly, gg wp is just fine. And it's usually intended for ppl who beat me outright when i've played a solid game myself. If I ever want to mention something about the persons build I always do it after the game in chat.

Could you elaborate more on why you think it is forced? I make sure to figure out something they really did well and then complement that rather than just throwing out generic nice words.

I suppose if I really can't find something they did well and it was just me doing terrible terribly, I'd just say gg and leave.

Actually, I kind of hate this idea. GG'ing in a serious game, or if you get greedy and your opponent makes you pay is one thing. But if you all-in, which it looks like you do, you don't deserve a gg. I wouldn't say bm is proper, but you did something that 2 year old could do properly if done enough times. That doesn't mean its a good game, only that you rolled the dice and got lucky.
I'm a gooner.

haha i would not be able to do it like you do. it seems too forced/could be received as sarcasm IMO

when i want to compliment a player i just type something in that seems rage-y but with a compliment.

"fuck your drops dude;;"
"hate it when protoss knows how to dodge my emps -_-"

and putting 'wp' usually means that it was sincere, i hope people don't drive it to the point where its as much a formality as 'gg'

In retail, employees are often overly nice to problem customers as it is the only way they can vent frustration without getting canned.

This isn't related to your manner plan but some people will mistake your kindness for sneaky meanness.

My only suggestion would be to feel free to tell your opponent where you went wrong (if in fact you did) so they don't get too comfortable with their play. Manner in the end is a way for us to interact that allows for maximal mutual improvement.

I don't think I all-in'd in any of these games. I GOT all-in'd though.

The only one I can think of is that ZvZ where I get my natural sniped and send all my crap at the guy. I didn't see any other option after that, however, seeing as I'd just lost my nat, he had his, and I'd just killed quite a few of his roaches (so our army differentials were as close as they were going to get).

When someone drops me and kills half my base, I usually say something like "nice drop" during the game.

Are you kidding? Go watch someone's stream when they're playing on the korean ladder. Most won't say "gggl" unless prompted, many leave without saying anything, and the most you get is a "ww" and f10n.

"GM" doesn't mean bending over backwards to reach for some stupid complement, it just means respecting your opponent and not being a dickhead.

i find it when i get 6 pooled, it's hard enough for me to even type in "gg" rather than good mannar

I love this idea. Since it's the internet you never know if someone is being serious or sarcastic in their "complements"

I will occasionally say a thing or 2 more than ggwp to an opponent if i lose if they start the game with a gl hf or something of the sort. I never understood why you wouldn't say glhf. People think that it's not necessary, which is true, but so is A LOT of things we say. "good luck on your test" "bless you" Have you ever said thanks to a service man/woman? I'm talkin any service, the cashier at any friggin place. It's their job to give you something, whether it be food or a ticket, why do you need to thank them? Because it's friggin mannered mannn. Why can't the ladder be like that. - -
