Heads up it is bad etiquette. In a normal ring game no one should complain about it. If this guy is playing short stack strategy he has to leave as it do not work with a 40BB+ stack.
If you play SS Strategy your buy in is 20 big blinds. In no limit Holdem 10 blinds 0,05/0,10 your buy in is 2$. In no limit Holdem 25 blinds 0.10/0,25 your buy in is 5$
This strategy only works if you have 7 contrary and only play high starting hands. If you won and have 25 big blinds you have to leave. It`s a hard job, but it works LoL

I think its fine, if you dont like this you can always play tourns or SnGs, a little rude on HU, but poker is not about being friendly or etiquette its about winning and keeping that winnings.

I dont think it its bad etics. Everyone play there bankroll there own way. And as mentioned your only a name on the screen. your place will soon be filled. I HU i can think its kind of bad. Once i played a HU up match Having one of my bader days losing. But we both bought in with about 500$ When i was down to 100$ the other guy sat out. And then said in chat he wouldnt continue playing if i didnt buy in again. That is very bad etics i think

It's no rude... i'ts just a style of playing, but i admit i can't really stand it. I'm working on discipline so i have to control my emotions and keep on playing as i know

well, i just have 2 objectives in poker: win and respect all the players!! so, lots off people play with a short stack, it is their strategy, i also made it already, i think we need respect that strategy.
good luck at the tables
