What do you consider Bad Mannered?

[Funn3lcak3s]

Title says it all. What do you considered a bad mannered move when playing Starcraft 2?
The thing that bugs me the most are a Offensive GG. Building a ton of bases when you know you will lose. And flying a bunch of buildings to random corners of the map.

Not GGing, when they know they've lost they go around making buildings and building cannons to turtle up more even though that base has 0 minerals. So I have to get +3 upgrades to break the wall and drags the game out 30 more mins. Or I have 3 bases, they have 1 I go attack so they lift off to an island as if that is going to save them and let them win.

Really, it's only the lower leagues that do this kind of stuff. In the higher leagues you can tell the damage you took may not have killed you, but it weakened you enough that there is no way you can come back and win so they just GG out. In the lower leagues they just keep trying to make it work and drag the game out for an hour.

But yeah, the offensive GG just kills me. It makes me want to just try as hard as I can. I've had it happen after they 6 pooled/zealot rushed my partner in 2v2s and he died like 4 mins in, so they go GG and start talking trash. I got a big enough army off 1 base and was able to kill the zergs hydras and expansion, then took his main so he ran around trying to rebuild while I took out the protoss's void rays and his base. I basically just beat them with pure micro, as I had way less units than them but I also had +1 upgrades, but I had like 4 groups of units taking out multiple different areas and they couldn't hold so they just quit without saying anything.

I'm really bad about GGing at the end of games but i wont go and build random stuff to draw out games. Ive also grown away from the 3rax build, it feels a little BM to me but thats just my opinion

Ive already encountered a few of these types of games, Ive also encountered people who say GLHF and when they lose they say I hate this *bleep* damn pro rush, way to pick on lower levels...and Im like WHAT!!! As you can see by my sig, my record isnt even mediocre. I merely recorded a game that I lost to an extremely fast rush by another Zerg player. This rush works quite good against those who dont expect it seeing as It comes usually before or right after they build thier rax and usually results in them losing quite a few if not all drones, but it never works on a protoss player cuz of those shields that all their units have . The rush basically goes like this and is really really easy, but if it fails you have to recover fast enough or your toast. Dont make any drones and the first thing you make is a spawing pool then make 1 drone and keep them all on the minerals and not the gas yet. As soon as its built, keep spamming zerglings (you should be able to send 3 sets of zerglings at the same time right when the pool is done building) and attack your opponents drones. Most times it catches your opponent off guard and gives you a win, and other times at higher ranks its useless unless you know how to follow it up. I dont, and im still working on a good strategy but find as the game progresses Im usually dead if it goes on for to long.

Just saying GG at the start of the match because they think they're so good that they can't lose. Stuck up kids thinking there all that and getting destoryed by the simplest of strats (reaper rush) and leaving saying that they didn't try at all because we weren't good enough for there real skills.

I admit, I did that, moved my base to one corner; enemies had no flying units at all, I had 5 banshees and destroyed my enemies mineral line several times. Mind you, they deserved it, cannon rushing my mate. You cheese me I will make the battle as time wasting and painful as possible. I eventually won when I destroyed all their workers. They raged for a couple of minutes before rage quitting.

Bad mannered:
playing terran
void rush
6pool
any type of cheese

Well, duh people are getting pissed that's called a 6 pool and it's basically the uber cheese. It either works or you lose and people at that level don't know how to fight it off. Make sure you use it extremely sparingly for when you just want to finish a game fast, it won't get you anywhere in rank though or make you a better player. It's pretty aggravating to lose to ;P

Also, I love the people that say 'GL HF' then proceed to cheese the hell out of you, then try and drag the game out after they lost, it's like if you want us to have fun and have a good game, don't do that..

Yeah, that's just.. hnnnghngh. Like today, me and my friend were playing 2v2 and a terran player decided to spend his leftover minerals (we busted up his main) on building command centers and flying all over the place so I had to spend 15 minutes hunting down his CC's and SCVs so he wouldn't do that anymore.

What also pissed me off today was, we were playing 3v3 - our team was P P T and they were all protoss.. after we pretty much got the crap kicked out of us they decided to be friendly in the chat with such classic phrases as;
"QQ?" "NOOOBS" and such. Sigh.

Also, 6 pool and stuff like that. /facedesk

It's even better when they message you on friends list after they won off cheese. Had a guy proxy raxx me and after spent like 5mins saying umad? Thank god for block communication.

As a Zerg player, I refuse to 6 pool since it's unfair (and since I play at the lower ranks it's very unfair) But sometimes it's the best choice. I played a 2 vs 2 match (that lasted at least 90 minutes) and the enemies were both Terran who stayed huddled in their bases and mass CC'd to delay the round. If I rushed them early I probably could have saved 85 minutes of my life.

It's really easy to defend if you know what your doing. You pull a certain amount of workers while your building your first attack unit. It's pretty bad in in a 2v2 though if 2 zerg do it, have to have both people pull workers. Then once you defend it's basically GG for the zerg.

I just came across this and really hate it, 2 matches I had today (a terran and a zerg) both sent a drone to my base and started building in the unexplored area of my base and kinda ruined the game for me both times. Would you guys consider this to be bad mannered, I know I do.

I watch a lot of Demos and this happens a lot. I don't think this is bad mannered, just good strategy.

I always try and sneak a pylon into my opponents' base when I fourgate as Protoss.

That late in the game I can understand, but building when I am barely starting and making photon cannons in my base or a rax in my base at the start, come on. People complain about the 6 pool rush, but what about photon cannons in your base right from the get go...

Cannon rushing and proxy rax is cheese but doesn't fall under the category of BM. Strategys can't be BM, it's a part of the game. Bm is stuff like prolonging a game after they lost, talking trash etc.

I was once playing a 4 v 4 and we were rolling the other team and then the nice red Terran on my team decided to start attacking our teams bases with his battleship spam -.-

 

[Stormrider^]

Almost forgot. Terran + flying a command center all around the map after I totaled his main and his expansion = rage.
