This must be a trollpost . If not , this isn ' t a offensive GG meme . For example GSL , a super strict tournament rules wise . You can only say GL HF at the start of the match , no other text and at no other time . If you want to pause you have to type PPP , nothing more nothing less nothing else . If you type GG , you are expected to leave yourself and forfeit the game . Typing GG and staying is an insta qualification . All of the above can actually likely get you disqualified , when broken . If you GG to your opponent with no intention of leaving , it ' s an offensive GG . Literally . You ' re on the offense , you ' re winning and typing GG . The part that doesn ' t sit well with people is that by offensively GG ' ing , you ' re actually indirectly forcing the pace of the game . You ' re telling your opponent it ' s time to get out and quit , since you ' re GG ' ing as to say According to me , this game is almost over . You wouldn ' t GG when the game is far from over , now would you ? Exactly . Hence the interpretation .
