Curbstomp is such an ugly term, it should be removed from this list. I don't see it really used that regularly around here, the community here is a bit more mature than that. There are many ugly terms in "gamer" speak that should just not be encouraged. I would hope you wouldn't consider it appropriate to add "(to) Rape" to that list, even though it's used by gamers with pretty much the exact same definition.
Roflstomp is fine though, but its definition should be changed.
You're arguing based on historical semantics.
"Curbstomp" might have had an... interesting origin, but it doesn't have such a meaning now. I am not encouraging anything, simply cataloguing it. "(to) Rape", in the CK2 community, doesn't have a distinct meaning, so, no, I wouldn't put it on.
By your logic, the words in the vein of "guy" and "pilgrim" shouldn't be used, either.
I've been online since 1998 and have never seen your second usage of 'FTW' :/
Is that a joke?

I agree. Might as well add racial slurs, as the 'term' originates from an act of racial violence.
1) Not a joke, an actual acronym. Not as popular now as once, but still there.
2) See below.

By your logic, the words in the vein of "guy", "average", "bad" and "pilgrim" shouldn't be used, either, as they had a negative and rather insulting meaning once upon a time.
