I'm not sure if most mods view it as abuse, therefore taking action when it occurs, but I certainly do. Maybe not a kick all the time, depending on the situation, but at least a warning should be given.

It's not so much abuse as it is annoying. It makes you feel bad, but also it isn't something that serious. It shouldn't be kick-able, because what if you said gg when it was a good game?

GG is different. The meaning is open to interpretation. But as for things like "get rekt" and that kind of stuff, that is what I classify as abuse, because some people will take it as abuse. It's never positive. It doesn't matter if not everyone takes it that way, it's still with the intent to insult and try to make the other player feel bad. It might just annoy them, sure, but it could really hurt their feelings, which should not be tolerated. Just an opinion of a long-time moderator who's seen this community grow and change. :)

When someone says something to me like rekt or eZ I'm just like thanks cause it means they're happy to kill you or suprised

Well to get back on topic, here are my thoughts. If you had the choice between someone saying "get rekd" after killing you, or that person saying nothing at all, everyone would pick nothing at all. No one likes when someone says that to you. Some may tolerate it, but no one likes it. So why allow something that no one likes? Since no one likes it and some people hate it, there is no reason for insults like this to be allowed.
