That way, they know that I am a well adjusted individual who is capable of differentiating between my imperfect Outwitters skill and my value as a human being, and they needn't feel bad about beating me, because I don't feel bad for losing. Some people are not capable of doing this, and saying rude things is their means of responding to the anxiety caused them by this incapacity.This perfectly sums up how I feel. Most oft he time..lol
Um... I mean... try not to let it get to you. At least you won!

Speaking of which, I find it a bit impolite to just receive an invitation from someone random and says nothing (even though I do like friendlies). Is that usual?

Nope.

If that happened to me, I would run for the hills and change my name. To probably Bombyattack. No one would know.

Who's Bombyattack? Is he a friend of yours... or an enemy?

I hate it when people say GG before the game's over. It comes across as douchey to me no matter who says it. Like "yeah I know you can't win, sucks to be you." It's bad enough I lost, they do't have to rub it in before the game's even over.
The only exception I make is when they can spawn hog and kill everything but a medic, so the game isn't over but there's nothing you can do to win, and say something like "GG, sry I didn't have enough wits for the medic" or something.

Does it piss you off when people say GG even after they win.. ?

Saying GG is like saying the game is over, as you all (probably) know. So if the game is obviously lost I really don't mind my opponents saying GG. I guess some consider it "Proper etiquette" to let the loser be the one to say it first, or to only say it when they have already conceded/you destroyed their base, but really sometimes I feel like people who get offended by it are just annoyed that they lost more than anything.

No, because the game's over. I find it presumptuous to say it before the game's over.
myself, I don't say anything after games unless it's a friendly and we've been talking the whole game. Sometimes I give people advice, like if I'd already thought of a way they could counter something I did but they don't do that (obviously I do this after they've missed their opportunity). usually people are cool about it.
I've just played to many RTS games where most chat is just flames and posturing, so if I don't have anything helpful to say, I don't say anything.

I think when I lose, I am going to always something like "I have been out-witted." Just for kicks.
