Means cry. Depending on who you talk to it either looks like a pair of crying eyes or it's Korean for "Ragequit/Stop playing" (alt+q+q to quit in Starcraft)

I have seen GTG and G2G cause some confusion in groups before. By default I would expect it to mean "good to go" as in go ahead and pull, but on multiple occasions I have seen other group members interpret it as "got to go" and started saying their good byes to that person haha. They even went as far as to recruit a replacement group member, then had to turn them away when they discovered the true meaning of the GTG.

I think it depends on your own acquaintance with the internet. If you spend a lot of time in chat rooms and instant messenger apps, I can definitely see "g2g" being more known to you as "got to go." But I think if ones history is more filled with MMORPGs then I'd expect them to use "gtg" as "good to go." [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

when i first played EQ GTG was got to go. once i started on WoW it changed to good to go. it caused all sorts of confusion to people that made the switch from eq. i think good to go was perpetrated more from the non eq influx. well that's my personal experience of it at least
