** MINUS 50 DKP!!!, 50 DKP MINUS!!!, Pakistani Raid Leader - A type of StopHavingFunGuys type of person who loses it when people start messing up or does something stupid. It was named for a raid leader who, in the game ''VideoGame/WorldOfWarcraft'', had said that if people messed up during a raid they would lose 50 DKP. Then when something goes wrong he proceeds to yell and freak out, yelling "THAT IS A *** ING 50 DKP MINUS!!!" at the player. It was thought that he was a Pakistani player on the Europe Servers, since he had a clear accent.

** Border Gore: Almost always seen within ''Creator/ParadoxInteractive'' games. It refers to borders between different territories and nations that are, not to put a fine point on it, ''completely fucked up'' in terms of being bothersome for the player and above all unsightly as hell. Most often seen with AI nations, players have been known to start wars exclusively because the territorial lines look more like a crime scene than a map and they don't want to look at whatever unholy mess of snaking territories and nonsensical enclaves the AI's done ''this'' time.

*** The Tower of Power: [[UsefulNotes/SegaGenesis Sega Genesis/Megadrive]] with UsefulNotes/SegaCD and [[UsefulNotes/Sega32X 32X]] addons, using a UsefulNotes/GameGenie cheat cartridge while playing VideoGame/Sonic3AndKnuckles. Named for the somewhat daft height of such a combination. Other combinations which are [[UpToEleven even taller]] have been made, though most of these are non-functional.
