I have been a member here now for over 2 months and have really enjoyed funkypool and playing a lot of its members. I have won quite a few matches and ( if you look at my stats ) have lost nearly as many but on every frame i have always said "gg" at the end, whether i win or get 7 balled. Regardless of the outcome i know i will have enjoyed playing....... unless i play one of the many funkypool members who for some reason think that every game i win is a 'fluke' or even worse somebody who cannot be bothered to type 'gg' at the end of a frame. Seriously what kind of ignorance does it take to not press G twice followed by the enter key?. When members sign up there should be an ignorant option where people who cant manage to find the energy to type gg anytime or maybe only when they win ( which happens a lot ) so that members with manners like myself know not to bother to go to the effort of saying ns, gg etc. Does anybody agree?

Yeah i hear ya man- 99 times out of 100 i say gg wp ul whatever.

Unfortunatly its not a rule that you must say gg at the end and a lot of people choose not to do it. What can you do about it? I just try and beat 'em a few times in a row then say something sarcastic like "thanks for the intelligent conversation and the brilliant standard of play you produced in getting beat 8-1 great games must play again sometime."

What he said!

Best not let it get to you unlucky_al, some people are born incappable of being nice over a computer, others aren't. Just the way it is.

I'll move this to game queries, as he is asking a question.

I don't know if I think it's a good idea or not....

Moved.

Yea exactly what mike said, its annoying that people cannot bring themselves to the simpliest of tasks but, such is life

al....its more of a choice.

I say gg at the end of MOST matches. I dont say gg if a player has been cheeky to me in the chat or on the game (always snookering for no reason).

If I get a run out or a GB...or if i win a 9 ball match quickly...I will say something like 'yay!' or something like that (not rubbing it in) but saying gg after a runout isnt that good in my eyes either.

its a bit like if your going to shake the umpires hand at the end of a tennis match (tsonga didn't) most do, others dont

I do it now.

Didn't at the start because if it isn't a good game what's the point.

Why get in the huff with someone for snookering major part of the game and just as skillful as clearing?

snookers are a part of the game flumpy- get over it.
Even after a run out or a golden break it is courtesous to say gg sorry or something similar as opposed to YAY.

hes always in a huff about something

Yep....Annoys me everytime.....but i try not let it get to me......Its only a game but still whn people dont say gg, or give you grief at the end of a game....i cant help but get wound up....

Put the guy on ignore!

or just put lol after everything they say, annoys them more than it annoys you!

or what I do if gettin abuse is-almost the same as _inspiration say "good man" after everything, regardless of context, works a treat lol

Some abuse is complimentary.

Yesterday I got called a freak! Get a life he kept saying. Was playing well like, everywhere half chance was gone in seconds.

Strange part was he'd played more games than I had.

lmao I was playing a certain member of admin and two snooker mods, wont name names lol but I was dubbed "robot boy" LMAO

i agree there is no reason for it, it takes two seconds to do but i think a bigger problem is people being abusive (swearing and threatening) just because they loose a game.

There's always an option to send a complaint, all complaints are dealt with and if a member constantly abuses others, then eventually he'll be 'sorted'!

yES I MOSTY ALWAYS SAY GG WP UL whatever the game has ended.

My only exception to that is if playing someone I know well that is a good player and we both know we both played like crap lol

And I never ever say gg first when I win - that's for the loser to do ;) (I somehow find it impolite to do that)

Who cares whether someone says gg or not, as for the gl thing lol who ever means that. Some ppl just come on here to play the game and not enter into the chat side of it. End of the day why make a big deal out of something thats not
