The etiquette for GG

When people complain to me (or report) about this, from a moderation standpoint I currently think

  • gg at the beginning: perfectly fine, as stone_defender says, it means “let’s have a good game”

  • gg at the end: perfectly fine, it means “that was a good game!”

  • nothing at the beginning: perfectly fine, there are tons of reasons why a player might not (or might not be able) to greet their opponent

  • nothing at the end: ditto. It is not “expecting the loser to gg”

  • gg: during play: not OK please report it. It is not OK to pressure your opponent into ending the game.
