I get this a lot.
I especially love it when you kill several of them before going down and they instasmack you as if they had just accomplished something amazing.
but I generally say GF regardless of the outcome, if I get ganked or if i get utterly demolished. Its just nice to get a fight either way. |

1. Good Fight.
2. Get F*(&ed |

I would point out that it would be easier to say "GF" if it was indeed a "good fight".
You find someone (or several someones, if you're feeling confident) and attack them in low/ null? That's a good fight, win or lose, and while one of you is warping out in their pod, saying "GF" is a nice way of letting someone know that they were a worthy enemy.
Someone gets blobbed on a gatecamp with no chance of survival? No, that's really not a good fight. However, I will point out, one person typing "GF" into local is one less person trying to shoot your pod after your ship goes up in smoke. |

I myself am accustomed to w-space where it is uncommon to say anything in local, so I usually forget to type "gf" in local even when I was fighting in k-space.
Makes sense. |

Just assume they are trying to be polite, unless it is iimmediately followed with derisive smack talk. It will significantly lower your nerd rage levels. 
To carve a successful niche for yourself in EVE you need to be able to out sell, out produce, out fight,-á out run, or out wit your competitors.
If you can do none of the above, your only option is to complain on the forums that somehow you are at a disadvantage using the exact same tool set-áas the rest of the player base. |

If you don't want to die alone, then don't fly alone. And don't expect to roll unchallenged into red systems just because you're solo.

Anything can be considered rude....
If you think they were rude, come back with friends...
That's what great about eve, if someone annoys you that much you can kill them...
But really, caring about what they say?
Not worth the time. |

I don't get in many fights, but if it's a even-sided fight and both parties had a good time from it, then I'd say GF.
Being ganked or blobbed is not a GF. Its aforementioned ganking or blobbing and not cool if its 20 dessies vs a frig.

It's like shaking hands with the other team after the match.
Manners in eve? Pshhhh
Only time you'll see me post "GF" in local is if it's actually a good fight (call me old fashioned). If i roll some scrub that had no chance, there is no chance of a "GF" as it was not a GF.
