Is "easy" new GG?

mgielka·Nov 16, 2017·6 votes·1,061 views

80% of my games ends with "easy" from opponens or my team. I'm reporting EVERY single one of them, because all players deseve respect, no matter how good they play, yet I'm not seeing any visible change. In my opinion there is nothing worse than saying that after 40 min head-to-head game, when you finally won.

I dont know if Riot is making anything about "izi" "ez" "easy" after most of my (and probably most) of games. Believe me I'm not making this after one or two situations like that. There have been weeks of that and I'm really done.

Wonder what Riot thinks about it... is it even "reportable"/bannable? [cass-cry]

I report for it. It is extremely disrespectful and rude. I do not recall any specific cases of people being banned for it though.

Edit: Such mean comments....

Why shouldn't I care about bad manner?

riot has said before that it is griefing and bannable.... but only if the winning team says it if the losing team says it apparantly its in good humor... having said that though i find it on the same lvl as the old GG... not all games are good and saying GG to a team you just stomped when obviously it was not a GG for them is rude. and apparantly saying BG is considered griefing and bannable also whether you win or lose

Really? I'm not supposed to say "GG" after I stomp a team? I feel like it'd be ruder to say "Thanks for playing" or something. It's like rubbing salt in a fresh wound. However I think GG is neutral and just a form of respect like saying "Sorry this one was rough, but good job doing your best and good luck in the future games".

I'm asking because I'm curious. I'm not trying to fight this point. I'm legitimately curious, because I've never been upset over "gg" but I have gotten a little tilted at the "gg ez" (especially when it's the laner I stomped saying it because his ass got carried).

if its a close game than i see no problem in saying gg however if its a pubstomp than saying gg when you win is the same as saying ez to me. You are implying that it was a GG for all involved when obviously the enemy was having a bad game. and they cant even say BG in all chat or risk being reported and getting a chat restriction(has happened to me)... i have got tilted by a team saying it was a gg when literally all my laners seemed to be intent feeding which basically made it so as a jungler there was nothing i could do to win a game... it was not a GG for me bc i was not having fun or able to have any meaningful impact on the game and from 5 minutes into the game i knew i was going to lose

I mean, I've been there, but I've always thought that "gg" coming from the other team was just something you did out of respect. Regardless of how good or bad the game really was. I used to play sports when I was younger, and even if I beat the ever living shit out of my opponents, you gave them a handshake and you said "good game" or "thanks for playing". obviously the other team or person would be frustrated, but it's still just good manners to essentially thank the people for their time. I guess, I don't understand being upset over "gg", just "gg ez". Because that's, to me, like saying to the people I just played against "you're fucking trash and it was a waste of my time to play".

Jesus Christ dude grow up. Actually get offended because someone MIGHT be making a passive aggressive comment. They COULD be implying something negative! 'GG is toxic' god damn.

Intent doesn't really translate well over text. GGEZ is pretty obvious, but just a plain old "GG" could be passive-aggressive or it could just be the plain old good-sportsmanship handshake.

Winner saying GG is considered major BM in Starcraft but not so much League imo.

Shit really? I always say GG in starcraft. Had no idea I'm insulting people. What a joke. People are so fucking touchy.

Lol you find saying easy to end a game the same as GG? Damn. That's just odd to me.

I only say ggez when I lose.

This is my view on the matter: People who say easy or ez after a game are obviously poor sports, and this is is their bad attempt at being trolls. At the moment this seems to be the popular way of displaying this, and it's best to just ignore them and move on; they probably have a lot of personal issues, and trying to talk to them about it usually just ends poorly. Honestly, there are a lot worse things that people could be saying, and if Riot starts restricting and banning people for the use of 'easy' then these people will just find some other word or phrase to use to troll others. I still don't think it's right, but sometimes we have to learn to live with something like this.

do people even understand what respect is anymore its not handed out like cheap candy its earned, find a new word to ruin

sounds like you are a bit salty.

its easy to see you should go easy on your sodium intake.

There are things much worse than "ez". Its just 2 letters. You'll get over it.

EschetonNov 16, 20171 votes

To be fair, how snowbally things are; most games are easy. Once you get that first doublekill botlane.

ggez is toxicity on the lowest scale.

It'll take a tonne of validly reported games to get punished for ggez alone.

I only say "gg ez" if I lose horribly or surrender or remake, for the lulz. The winning team will either know I'm messing around or think I'm an idiot, neither of which is really reportable. When I win, I say "GG", and if the game was particularly good, compliment their skill.

If you think your reports are gonna affect it and you're gonna see a change because you Are reporting everyone, I think you have a false sense of grandeur. You are only one of millions of accounts that play this game. You're not gonna make any difference.

AcexXXVNov 16, 20171 votes

I usually say "gg to both teams" win or lose, maybe throw a smiley in there to, hate people that gloat after a win

Dr DogNov 16, 20171 votes

It would be fine by me if it was the actual carry that said it and not the dickhead that went 2/9 and got carried like ya no shit a game where you don’t have to do anything will be easy
