"GG"

Dear community...

I am here to ask a simple question... What is wrong with people reporting me for writing sipmle: "gg" after game?

I am so confused. I have always thought the "gg" is some kind of sportsmanship in this game. But lately more and more often people keep reporting me for writing that after games they did not enjoy. They add that I am being negative, that I should do something with my manners etc.

Am I mistaken and is the "gg" really harassment? Or am I right and those people are not suppose to report me? I just want to be kind to every other player in the game. I love being positive it makes me feel good, better. I have never been punished for being negative and I play this game for almost 5 years. I'm proud of that and I do not want to screw it up.

P.S. Sorry for my bad English I am not native English speaker.

GG at the end of the game is essentially a handshake, though some people take it sarcastically if they think it wasn't a "good game". I usually skip it in excessively one-sided games or ones with afks or w/e or say like "gg sorry about the afk" or something like that.

You aren't going to be punished for saying gg at the end of the game. You have nothing to worry about.

Give me like 5 minutes and I will jump onto my laptop to throw you a link about this.

You should not feel bad for saying "gg" it stands for good game and simply means that both teams fought well and that you enjoyed yourself. Don't worry about being reported for it because it's a false report and you won't get punished because of it.

I think it's just the fact that you put an abbreviated good game, a lot of the rude players on here say stuff in abbreviations.

I just type every thing out for the most part, well played good game etc etc

Ok here you go. This was a post by someone who was complaining about people saying GG in what most would consider a Bad Game. I think my comments are a pretty comprehensive answer to your question. http://boards.na.leagueoflegends.com/en/c/miscellaneous/wyalYdJ7-gg-like-robots?

Just ignore them, if they are too dumb to realize that GG is just a ingame handshake they are not worth your time.
