I'm using greetings at the start of the game, if my opponent says it. If i'm playing against cancer (pirate warrior etc) i might use greetings when i win.
[...] before lethal and "hello" after, kinda as to invite the player to invite me and have a chat or something. Nothing bm about it.
Yeah, the first thing I would do after that is making a friend request because of your nice behaviour - lol.
Nice behaviour is hard to reflect with 6 emotes available, easier seen in actions to be honest. I usually keep quiet until the end of the match with the exception of the occasional "amazing" when witnessing an amazing play or "oops" when i made a misplay. You mistaking my attempt at communication isn't my problem at that point.
To me actual bad manner would be to rope each turn while spamming "i will crush you", waving a card around, delaying lethal for multiple turns then emptying hand, roping before doing lethal with maximum damage. I would not friend request such a player.
But i'd just forget about it and move on anyway. I simply can't see why a simple "hello" is so horrible in comparison.
My god. Do you go through life constantly offended?
I was answering OP's question and i do believe that emoting is considered BM by most players.
In fairness, you not liking people using emotes (which are a part of the game) does not mean that "most players" consider it BM. It's fine that maybe you do - though that is something of an overreaction tbh. There's nothing BM about greeting a player at the start of a game, or commending a player on a good move or a well fought game afterwards.
Otherwise, by that logic, you could consider anything that happens in the game that you don't happen to like to be BM. Guy plays a minion that's bigger than yours? BM! Guy plays a weapon and hits face? BM!
I'm really surprised by this topic, next time i go on ladder i'll spam random emotes all time to upset my opponent as much as i can and get free wins. GG
It was more appropriate when the game was fresh and everyone followed the same spirit but now yeah it's kind of meaningless and dunno what to think when I see it really.

I'm really surprised by your post, this thread is about the Greetings emote when you win the match, you can't influence your win chances with it because the probability that you'll get the same opponent is rather low in HS.
i usually greet at the start of game, and and use well played at the end unless its an aggro game, even though i play aggro myself.
I was trying to play midrange hunter few days ago, facing renolock.. he was spamming the emotes all the game.. i didnt answer him at all. Then somehow i had a freaking nice burst damage and have lethal and i have done it.
I added him and asked him, why BMing when you dont know if ur gonna win or not.. he said "lol, i was playing my warlock quest , gg tryhard" .. seriously wtf !! so i answered "gg easy".. then he freaking wrote whole A4 essay that is full of insults ! then he deleted me.
Emotes are not BM, unless u r spamming or using it in "not making scene situation", like turn 1 "well played" and playing the [card]N'Zoth's First Mate[/card]..
I reserve it for when I make miraculous comeback against an aggro deck, currently pirate warrior or aggro shaman, it used to be for face hunter. Otherwise it's just "well played" or if the game was fun, close or decided by a crazy RNG play just before the end "Wow.. Well Played".
You generally receive it far more often from people playing those same aggro decks when they win.

There's no bigger satisfaction than knowing they're spamming their bullshit for nothing because you don't even see it. Squelch wins.
Just give me an auto-squelch option, that's the only thing I need.
Question everything.
I thought we were talking about the "Well Played" emote for some reason.
Heh, Greetings!
There is a reason why I need an auto squelch button. I think in the end blizzard will sell that setting for $5, and people will buy it!!

This is obviously very hard thing to do, like creating an entire game from scratch.

If I remember I say face the wisdom of the seas every time I attack with my face.

Minions, servants, soldiers of the cold dark! Obey the call...of Kel'Thuzad!
btw, thanks for this post OP. I started saying greetings every time before I win now.
