I sure do let players know if they killed me or I killed myself. There is a big difference. ;)

I guess no one ever loses to better play, just loses from bad play.

I can't remember.. it's been so long..

Actually I always say "GG" it may have a caveat though,
if I did make a mistake I'll let someone know,they still get a GG though
as they still had to have been in a position to take advantage of my mistake.

The only people that beat me and don't get GG's are the ones that get like 2DN's as AI
when I get a pair of FF's.
Oh and t00l

I hates him I does.

This is a funny thread... cuz yeah, the gg thing at the end... some players type that when u got pwnd hard... I mean thats like rubbing salt in someones eyes. Sometimes when I pwn someone so bad, I type gg? kinda leaving up to them to decide what to say about the conclusion... I'm not one to rub it in... unless its well deserved...

But sometimes when I'm pwnd... and it wasnt even a gg at all, so one sided... my opponent types GG! and its like, no it wasnt... I think it allcomes down to what u define as a gg. My take is its a fun match that was a close fight where both players likely had fun... When its a landslide, thats not a gg... thats a massacre. How can you in good faith as a player sit there and insult someone by suggesting your kicking his ass was a gg? Doesnt make any sense to me...

gg = goodness gracious.

More seriously......

On GSA, I will usually chat after the game about what each of us did right or wrong, and how our decisions may have made the game end differently.  Hopefully I don't sound too much like an arse when I mention the mistakes I made that may have let my opponent get in a good volley or two.

On D2, I'll usually just say "GG" or "Well Played!" if they blow me up (so long as the session doesn't end before I can type it out) unless they hail me in general chat and want to discuss things.  I try to not spend much time in general chat, however, as the game keeps going while I type.  So usually the conversations on D2 are much shorter than they would be on GSA.

Sometimes I have to leave a PvP before a fight is over.  A usual departing line from a plasma vs. plasma battle that ends that way might be, "We could probably play for another hour, but I think the damage done so far gives you the win and I've got to go."

See I type GG unless I'm PO'd at the player.

For all I know- maybe he gave it his best effort and just doesn't know how to fight
against a Lyran BCV (t00l..DH..) gg to me is more indicitive of someone having made an effort.
Killing me gets a GG, unless you're one of the players I don't like,(ie whom I haven't beaten yet) in which case it gets a torrent of vindictive whining and crying as well as baseless accusations of cheesiness & cheating. (seriously)
99% of games I play though get a GG, as I think the other guy has at least tried.

my battles usually end with me seeing the wave of drones coming in and me typing, "BLOODY HELL.... gg lol"

or, as I'm watching my power drop to 4 as the fighters swarm my ship.


Anyone I fight gets a "gg" if I'm in a ship class way smaller... I always stay and fight.

I give everyone a GG, unless it ends before I finish typing.  Only exception would be if someone was ignorant directly to me.  I feel that even a small ship running away deserves a gg as he did run away as he should have.  A larger ship, should it force me to run or just win due to being bigger, not necessarily better, still gets a GG because he flew.  If he made mistakes, he will know(because he is dead) and still gets a GG because he most likely will have learnt something for it.

All games are good, because if they werent, we would not be here. therefore GG ALL.

If you want to make something personal out of this, you email me and we can take care of it.

If you want to take pot shots from the balcony, I will do the same.

Frak off.  I haven't touched your karma.

Never have used it except by accident.

I think it is others who are just pointing out that you are acting like a child.

...for questioning the nature of telling an opponent they only won because you played "sub Par" etc. etc. Look in the mirror.
