    Just because a term gets used a lot does not mean it is invalid, but many are overused to be sure. You will find them in reviews as easily as our posts. I got this one from the last review I looked at on here:

    "unique features"

    Every MMO released has to have one or more of those. :)

    "Camping, camper"

    "lfg, lfm, last spot"

    "dungeon tool, raid finder"

    "questdriven"

    "point-and-click, mouse-clickers, button-smashers"

    "macro"

    "rotation"

    "rep, dailies"

    "wipe, aggro, threat"

    "talents, talent tree"

    Once upon a time ...

    GW2 - It's appeared in almost every thread for the past month.

    “There are certain queer times and occasions in this strange mixed affair we call life when a man takes this whole universe for a vast practical joke, though the wit thereof he but dimly discerns, and more than suspects that the joke is at nobody's expense but his own.”

    Retracted, can't lead anywhere good.  Doh too late.

    Self-pity imprisons us in the walls of our own self-absorption. The whole world shrinks down to the size of our problem, and the more we dwell on it, the smaller we are and the larger the problem seems to grow.

    Hunter S Thompson - Him too.  No offense, nothin' against HST, but haven't you ever read any other authors?

    There are other authors?  Non-sense.
