sad world when GG offends people

Lugg11 votes

GG EZ is very offensive. It shows a complete lack of respect for your opponent.

Personally, I think it's more sad that people actually think there's nothing wrong with it.

Imagine spending time playing a high school football game or something (or whatever is closest), and when you lose the enemy team just laughs at yours. Or chess, which is considered a sport I believe. It makes them look stupid with that level of immaturity.

League is a competitive environment. If you can't accept that, and the responsibilities that comes with it, you shouldn't be playing.

League is a competitive environment and i accept that for the reason people have emotions that are let out in competitive play and bantering is a form of expression in showing your enthusiasm of the game. If people cannot understand that people get excited and show joy and discouragement of the other team. Then is really me that shouldn't be playing.

Sounds like people want a competitive league of tic tac toe where its almost impossible to lose a game.

Maybe i am more offended of the aspect of the real world than the letters GG

What happen to playful bantering. Now games feel like your little brother running to mommy each time because you beat him at Go fish.

It really makes me wonder how people function in the real world when there is so much offensive crap that i am surprised they even leave mommy's house.

Edit: I get told i am BAD and TRASH in this game all the time. What do i do about it. Nothing! I move on to the next game, because there not even worth my time and chances are ill never see them again.

You know what high schoolers do after sporting events are over?

They bump fists or whatever and say "good game."

You conveniently leave out the part where you tease your brother over it and get in trouble with mommy. Win or lose, you're expected to show sportsmanship. If I lost and raged at the enemy team (or my team!), it would be unsportsmanlike just as much as rubbing it in to the enemy team.

than the letters GG

You seriously left out the part that mocks the concept? "gg" is fine, or whatever variation. "GG EZ" is a purposeful mockery of what is supposed to be a sportsmanlike phrase, to acknowledge your opponent's efforts win or lose. It's why both sides say it, not one or the other.

It's clear you don't really understand the point of sportsmanship. Have you ever played actual competitive sports? Do you really think this attitude is limited to League? If you want to bring up the real world, then I'm sorry but it's obvious you've never participated in sports. Martial arts, basketball, football, soccer, this kind of attitude is a requirement.

Well i left EZ out, because i conveniently see no difference. Have you ever notice these people also say GG EZ when they are steamed rolled. There not trying to mock you every single game. There just letters. I participated in Martial arts and Baseball when i was younger and we had playful banter then. I never complained and i still don't complain now.

Regarding sportsmanship... You're right! i don't understand it anymore. Have your reward for participation and lets go have pizza.

In the real world, during real sports, played by real people, who make millions of real dollars playing, with hundreds of millions of real people watching, there are real penalties.

You sure you're from the real world? CoD isn't the real world. ;)

Edit: Even in highschool such acts are penalized!

When i used to played sports i remember bantering all the time even in high school. Like i said what happen to people. There's no thick skin anymore.

Now if you go to high school and say you don't like the teacher you apparently have a mental illness and need a police investigator to make sure you don't do anything crazy or if you do anything abnormal then theirs some type abuse at home.

Its a sensitive word nowadays

Except that you're not playing against your brother. You're playing against a brother from another mother, also from a different race/age/country/pets.

Do note that I said ""gg ez" is bad, not only "gg". Only "gg" is referred as "good game man", whilst "gg ez" is referred as "good game, btw thank god you suck so bad". Unsportmanship conduct will still be punished, no matter how tough you think you are.

Race / Age/ Country / Pets don't matter... Why was these mentioned? As for the brother statement. Yes! Little brother will still cry because he lost the game with out you even trying to instigate it. Then you have mother re-enforcing the problem which makes the child conditioned to think its wrong.

Thinking "gg ez" is bad just shows how people are so easily manipulated by just 2 letters "EZ" This is being conditions to think what is wrong. Its not me about being tough or trying to explain someone actions or my own. I dont say "GG EZ", Actually i say nothing at all. So i dont get in trouble for being toxic when you can just ignore it.

Yet you say "EZ" means thank god you suck so bad. Then can you explain why these same people say it after being steam rolled. I got a theory about it.... Its just Letters.

Too bad the post game chat isn't muted too, but at least the report menu covers it for the most part before I leave.

Hi,

Not to offended anyone here or in the community itself. But some people have to make common sense out of situations. Like this game has no age limit for verification so that opens up a lot of different variables for bad things like immaturity, social deficit, and etc. Very true its unsportsmanlike. but also look at it like this. Some people that's the best thing they did that day was win a league match. And to that I say "to each and their own". Its just words, if you let it be just that. If not that's why we have the option to report! After all, we all have our nicks and knacks, some prefer a clean gaming competition, less verbal involvement, etc. Just a thought.
