The one that tends to annoy me is "thanks" after you've conceded.
....it's hard to read intent, though.
But I suppose it would be equally valid to read it as "thank you for giving me a win" and "well played" as sarcastic. Obviously you haven't played well enough when you're hitting concede, after all.
Yeah, intent is of course only ever your own interpretation - but if their first reaction to conceding is "thanks", then I read that as spite. Especially when it was a one sided game.
I would say though that you can play well and have a nice back and forth and then concede later when you got outplayed though. Not sure if I would emote "thanks" in that case as well. But there I could see it as more genuine.
