Concise description:
  • Default GL and GG at beginning and ending of games.

This will improve the following aspects of the site:
  • Less typing
  • Friendlier atmosphere

:P

ive been tempted to set up one of my function keys to do just that

maybe a button for them would be better, at least then youd actually have to do something

maybe there could even be a button for:

"Wow! I just got bad dice. Ill probably lose now. Its not your fault, but its disappointing. You played very well though, and it was a fun game and good luck in the future!"

:lol: :lol: :lol: I like that one :lol:! Seriously though, wouldn't it make everything a little less personal? I know that at the start of a game, when someone says not only gl, but adds something onto it like 'gl, hope we have a fun game' or something you know that they took 2 extra seconds to be personable. If when you joined a game, it would automatically say gl, what's the point? Just my perception,

Yeah, doesn't Yahoo games have something like that where you can click a button to say random things? I don't agree with defaulting saying gl and gg though. Personally, I do not like to wish the opponents good luck, and I shouldn't be forced to. And, if I lose, it was obviously not a good game, and I do not want to disgrace my opponents by lying to them. This also lowers the value of the attitude rating, as most people weigh attitude on saying gl or gg.

An option to turn gl and gg on or off, or buttons that say different things would be cool.
