I always gg, and if im not too annoyed with myself for losing to the 8th proxy gate, 7pool or 3rax with congo line i always try and give a nice word. Makes everyone's life easier. We're all playing this great game and god knows its a hard one to play. Anyone who likes it enough to stick around this long has points right off the bat in my book.

Love the idea. This is very learn by example for everyone out there. If at all possible we should strive to be as good mannered as possible. The NA ladder is so BM right now because of people like IdrA and CombatEX who bm constantly. Hopefully this will catch on!

Congrats for getting over that hump. Many players would just leave or say something insulting.

I personally love the idea. I'm trying to force myself to not take each loss so personally, and take the extra step to be very manner, (while i've always gg'd, i've often been really frustrated at the end of games).

And i'm trying to pull away from that frustration!!

Eh I've always gg'd except in team games (read: 3v3/4v4 are the official troll leagues of SC2), even when I was verbally abused by some players. I've seldom complimented people though. I'll give it a shot.
I promise not to make a tasteless joke.

I like it, I myself also always try to be as manner as possible, though I mostly just leave with a gg, an added wp if I'm impressed and wp+more if I'm sickly impressed :p.

Anyway I must say I would be quite shocked if I meet you, because lately it seems that ALL zerg players I meet BM's me hardcore. And I play quite standard so it's not like I feel they got a huge reason to BM me (reaper expand into double medivac drop and throwing up a third cc inbase, then I just wing it with tank marine medivac :p).

My last three games vs zerg has ended in 0 ggs, one saying yawn as he finishes off the last of my forces and takes the game, another one leaving without a gg when I take out his last expo, and a third saying "YOU LOST NOOB LEAVE" when I was 30 supply behind mid game (that victory was one of my sweetest, after I had managed to turn that around with relentless dropping).

I've been typing gg, wp (NO MATTER WHAT, even if I Get cheesed by combat ex I say gg wp which has happend like 5 times) and It drastically reduces how mad I get and how often I tilt, as a result I Can play more games in a good mental state and have more efficient practice.

It's amazing how GM the koreans/korean server is. We have a a really mest up culture Lol.


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.



ww = gg...

And its hell of a lot more mannered than us. From my own experience on ladder it's pretty much BM... and I don't consider not talking BM. I'm talking about straight up shit talking and complaining/whining and calling you out...

You're weird, it doesn't make you prone to analyzing your replays. In
my moment of angst, I yell/curse at the comp while opening up the replay to see how the player won.

Until NA server gives up the cheese or get off the pot attitude I refuse to play another game. Master was just as boring as Diamond, and Diamond just as boring as Platinum. Russian roulette of all-in pushes.

Until you abandon this kind of thinking you will never improve as a player.

No desire to improve when I've been better than my opponents for ages. I didn't say I lose to all-ins and cheeses, I said its a boring way to play pretty simple what I said. Not sure how you could misinterpret it. I don't need to improve as a player I'm quite good enough already. I play this game for fun, and facing people who get a hard on for a win and do everything they can to get it with no shame for how little skill their build takes, or how far below 50% they have to go to get their points up is without a doubt not fun at all. Or do you think its fun to have someone A-move into your base and if you don't have a 200+ APM defense and a perfect force field (I play Protoss) you instantly lose? I guess you must.
