This ongoing dispute about whether GG means 'good game' or 'get good' all comes down to the individual player's RL experience.
If you grew up playing sports as a kid, you'll probably recognize the gesture as 'Good Game.' I was raised playing everything from baseball to basketball to soccer and from the earliest age, all the coaches taught lessons about good sportsmanship and shaking hands at the end of games, win or lose.
Win or Lose with grace and a GG (Good Game)
Now, on the other hand, kids who were raised without sports and with the sole tutelage of the vitriolic internet tend to view this differently. The pale-skinned shooter kids who've never kicked a ball in their lives use the term in a bastardized way. These kids are used to gloating after wins and crying after loses.
Easily offended, they view GG as a negative (Get Good)
It's really that simple. |

I just put "(Good Game)" in the GG mail, and compliment them on what they did to make me send the GG mail in the first place.
Then you'd have to be a special kind of person to feel insulted.

I usually add a smile at the end to indicate the good natured intent of my "GG"..... like "GG :)"
If someone wants to get worked up about that, it's on them, not me. |

If someone wants to get worked up about that, it's on them, not me. Just remove any opportunity for misunderstanding by sending a jolly "good game fgt."
If they want to take offense at that, it's on them*.

If you win and send a gg, you'll almost never get a reply, and if you do it has some condescending remark along with it: "gg, I would had you if, blah, blah, blah..."
People send gg 99% of the time as a way to gloat their win, plain & simple. Instead of gg, peaople should actually take the time to send a message telling the other person what they thought they did well.

GG Opposing Corporation. We won by the way everyone reading who didn't know already. Just wanted to make sure you knew that. But we're being good sports about it. It isn't bragging if you say GG.
