Do you use gg or tyfg at the end of dungeons?

proprio.meb16_ESO

Hello at start
Thanks all bb at end

Indipendently of the group i found myself with... its just a matter of being polite.

defcon.dealer1b14_ESO

GG and give accolades to the group members.

"gg" in battlegrounds

"ty for group" in dungeons

I just wanna take this opportunity to say ESO is my first MMO and at first I though gg meant "get good" and I only recently found out it means "good game" and people were being nice to me and not critical.

usually "tyfg" but sometimes "WOW WE DID IT!!!" at the end of a particularly hard run like FG1

KlauthWarthog

"Hello" at the start, "Thanks all" at the end.

I always type out thanks for group and usually ask if anyone wants to have any pieces I collected that I already have and then give it to them

Mr_Stach

I would say..... something. But everyone quits out too fast in Pug Dungeons

I usually state "howdy" at the start of the dungeon and follow up with the necessary question "is anyone doing the quest" It seems people just don't read group chat and sprint ahead to the first boss about 83% of the time.

Sometimes I get a person who replies "hi, I'm doing quest!" and then my goal transitions to ensure that person completes and gets their skill point. If the other two stick with us, great. If not, great. I'm helping the person to responded with something resembling civility.

A little "please and thank you" makes a world of difference to me - seems many folks are content to speed thru the run and get their keys. I understand and happy to do the same if no one says "hi" back to me. But if/when someone asks for help (which is rare for some reason) I am always more inclined to help that person, provide gear support, help through other questions, etc.

Very noble of you, missing out on skill points at dungeon end sucks really bad for the new player experience especially on Dungeons with long winded ended (I'm looking at you Banished Cells I)

Both, if deserved, if I had a really good time, if the party members were kind, clever, etc.

When I first started over on EU a few years back I noticed slight changes in terms used a lot on NA ie DPS v DD etc.
It's also a little bit situational for me based on how others are signing out. A few dungeons and random folks in zone needing an assist on NA were tyfg.
Finished 2 trials on EU it was everyone saying GG.
I'm easy though as long as everyone leaves with a smile it can be GG TYFG WOOPEE makes no difference

LalMirchi

"hi" at start "ty" at end, I also spend a few minutes at the end so the questers can get their points.

vibeborn

I say "thanks for the run"

Wolfchild07

Start: Hiyas

Finish: Cheers!

I just leave group and go on my way.

Faulgor

b101uk

IWinWithPewPew

I just play lute if i fake tanked and skilled it ;D

TwinLamps

I rarely use abbreviations, so I type things out. How much varies on the group.

If the group doesn't respond to the usual hellos and hi's at the start and are completely quiet I might not say anything except a bye. If they do it depends on how chatty everyone is, but standard randoms is usually gear sharing, a well done, and some form of bye.

I agree wholeheartedly... sometimes abbreviations can get 'misconstrued' and someone thinks you are saying something other than what you intended. It's bad enough that text is the worst for instant communication with no ability to infer tone, inflection, humor, intent.... why worsen it by sometimes ambiguous shortening?

Granted that "tyfg" is pretty self explanatory (thank you for group). GG is "good game".

But I've seen people get upset when someone says "gf"... thinking it meant something other than "good fight". Use your imagination.

I'm sure I could provide other examples where textual abbreviations don't always work well... simply put, until you know the audience, complete phrases are more contextually relevant than shorted abbreviations in conveying your true meaning.

Very rarely do I interact these days. I used to but player behavior IMHO has changed dramatically and for the worse in the years I was gone.

The times I land in RNDs with some jackwad racing ahead, skipping mobs, pulling them everywhere and leave the rest of the group behind to deal so that they can get to the last boss and solo it is UNPRECEDENTED. Currently, when this happens, I am at the point where I just wait it out and let the idiot complete it for me. Sometimes they can't. Then I just laugh.

I typically open with "Heyo" and end with "Tyfg!" If it was a grueling run and we barely made it, I might add a woot or a yay. Most times I find people don't talk at all except to say something like "LF Kinras". I used to type out "Thanks for the run guys!" but 9 times out of 10 the group would be disbanded before I was done lol so I keep it short nowadays.

I generally like interactions in dungeons, so if people don't know what they're doing and ask questions I'm always happy to help out - assuming I know what I'm doing, which isn't always the case.

Inaya

Nope! I actually say thank you and have a great day.

Really bad group = disband group if you're crown
