Gamers act in trends. Once one person hates it, then 2 more will, 4, 8 and so on and so on. It's just the way forum users are in these industry.
For instance, take the word "butthurt" as an example. Somewhere deep into a lonely's man's basement he once got into an online arguement and called someone butthurt. Now that comment was seen online and spread like wildfire in the 2006 or earlier timeframe. Now we have it as a stand alone word in every online forum today along with various .gifs etc.
Gamers are trendy people you know. I can't tell you how many times I heard "It's over 9000!!" online in video game forums....
