Ok BuddyC, if you guys wanna ban BOMBA that's fine and all, I know it's overused and it's getting annoying for some people. But could you at least edit the post to state that "BOMBA" should be a seperate entry (number 3) instead of simply bundled under REIROMISM? As one of the few pioneers of the popularity of BOMBA back in the days where the PSP was still outselling the DS (with tons of entertaining photoshops I must add), it's a little sad to see that the phrase is now simply bundled along with other reiromisms that clearly undermine the importance (and unique annoyance) of the phrase itself. It's a homegrown GAF catchphrase and not some shit we stole from Reirom. Thanks! :(

Because reliance upon these phrases hampers, not facilitates, communication, allowing people to rely on quick catchphrases instead of fleshing out their own thoughts, feelings and ideas. The underlying message is if you're going to contribute, please attempt to do it in an original manner. This ties back to why IBTN was banned last year.

Why dont you ban "fap" or 10x ":lol" and all the other bullshit that goes on then instead of actual discussion? Half the posts in the gaming forum are retards posting the same trolls over and over again. It's wonderful you think this will help people will flesh out their own thoughts and ideas but this forum has one of the worst cases of groupthink I've ever seen. That's the problem, not someone saying a line from Citizen Kane.
