refusing to say gg after someone says it first

Alot of my losing games end with me telling my opponent gg before i resign to see if they will acknowledge and say gg back. If they ignore or refuse to say gg is it ok for me to make them wait for being a bad winner??

What if they don't think you played a good game?

#1 Stalling out games is against the rules and just annoying, also maybe your opponent has their chat disabled.

First of all, your opponent could have chat disabled or didn't see you typed a message.

Second, it is not obligatory for your opponent to say you played a good game.

Third, to "to make them wait" is a practice known as stalling and they can report you for it. It is bad sportsmanship, as @medelpad pointed out.

Fourth, in any case, your opponent being a "bad winner" is not an excuse to be a "bad loser".

So no.

Oh give me a break. Suck it up and hit "new game". Spending any amount of time thinking about why someone didn't send you an insincere platitude is just lame. Move along.

If you want them to report you for stalling then sure.

Guess it's just as good as any other reason to stall. You could also infer that anyone who doesn't reply gg hasn't fed his cat either.

Just rake up that anger and justify whatever it is you want to do. Stall, cheat, troll ... You do you dude. It's never your fault anyway.
