Actually GG was used as a descriptor for items in Diablo 2. It means godly good.

Really? Didn`t know that. But I never really played D2 online as internet was just not affordable back in the days.



Same here! Another point of confusion for me was "twink." I'll bet you think that means "to min/max," right? Nope. It means "to put a strong leveling item on a lower level character," or "a lower level character that has strong leveling items," or "a strong leveling item for lower level characters."



I knew before, what a twink is! :)

Gear has nothing to do with it. Twinking is just starting a new character after your main. So every character after your main one is considered a "twink". Of course you can use leveling gear for twinking, but it`s not mandatory to consider your char a twink.

But Urban Dictionary begs to differ here. ;)

Hi,

the term "GG" (good game!) stems from PvP-Games like FPS or RTS and is usually used after a match is finished to congratulate the winner or to acknowledge that it was in fact a good game.

So... why the fuck is everyone starting to sell their mediocre to absolutely USELESS gear labeling them as "GG" sword, armor, whatever? How can a piece of gear even be considered "GG"?
WHAT IS IT SUPPOSED TO MEAN IN THIS CONTEXT?


Where is this stupid habit even coming from? This was certainly not the case in open beta...


Can`t we all just agree to stop using a term that has absolutely NO PLACE in an ARPG and is totally illogical to use here?


You, labeling your items of any kind as "GG" makes me ignore your offers completely as I am absolutely sure you are selling pure junk. And in 99% of all cases I am correct in my assumption...

And if you use "GG" because you think the buyer will never ever need another piece of gear and this itemslot will be "done", why the hell do you use that term on lvl 20-40 items?!?

WTF are you even babbling about? I "seeked enlightement", hence the thread, and I got my explanation. I stand corrected, and I accept that. What is your problem, dude? Want to talk about it?


Labeling, ignorance, trolling, damn, your posting has it all!

Even if gg would mean godly gear in this case, it is still very much misused. in trade chat all i see ppl labeling their junk as "godly gear" and actaully expecting 10 exalts for a lvl 10 ring with 30fire resist and 20life because its gg.

Right, that is exactly what I am talking about. :)
When I first started this game, not having played diablo, I kept hearing the term "Twink" and wanted to know what it meant. So I googled it. Do. Not. Google. It.

And if you do google it, for the love of god make sure you aren't searching images.

I see it in the eyes of men and beasts that i troll. It will take me to play the actual game when i am ready and i am not ready.

that absolutely made my day.

now i have a different view on people saying they play their twink!
I'm into S&M so I loaded up my duelist twink with GG uniques (even though he can't wear most of them) and ran into the Fetid Pool in Nemesis.

GG = Good Game is Counter Strike related


GG for Good Game was used well before Counter Strike.
