This is simply to help make it easier for newbs to understand the abbreviations of the game.
BSOC = The Game you are/want to play, Aka "Bleach Soul of Chaos"
ShiBan = Short for Shikai/Bankai, often used in "What's your Shiban?". The Phrase was introduced by me to make it quicker to ask that question. Often used to ask Which Anime Characters Shikai/Bankai you've chosen (if you know).
Vai: The Common Abbreviation for Vaizard, the Race of Shinigami-Beings who have dabbled into the way of the Hollow, obtaining Mask.
Arran: The Common Shortening for Arrancar, Hollows who have Removed their mask and as a result gained Shinigami Powers.
Arr: See 'Arran'.
IH: Stands for Inner Hollow, an NPC in the game which you need to beat to become a Vaizard.
Shini: Short for Shinigami, the most common race in the game. Arguably called the nOOb Race cause there's so many (this is a result of them being so adaptable to battle compared to other races).
ShininOObie: A Playful Pun of Shinigami, refers to players who only use Shinigamis for their excessive power. Also Commonly referred to as IchinUbs and Bind nUbs.
Bount: Short for Bounto, a Race of Custom made souls all based off Shinigami. The Bount utilized Dolls in the Way Shinis used Shikai/Bankai. Bount has the special ability to regen HP.
Fagtoma/A Variety of other Deriviations of "Katoma": People's references to me, due to me being the stric-*test*-('"), least caring (of players) GM the game Has. Some Respect me due to they appreciate a GM who FINALLY enforces rules, some just plain despise me for the same thing. I am often misunderstood and people love to do anything they can to annoy me.
IchinUb: Refers to a player in V3 BSOC who used Ichigo or Ichimaru Shiban. IchinUbs were called this because of the sheer cheapness of their Shiban of choice, and because of the first 4 letters of their Shibans name.
Rei = Reiatsu, aka Chakra MP PP etc etc on countless other games.
ReiP = Reiatsu Power, another abbreviation I personally Developed. It basically is the equivalent to one's "Magic" Stat in RPGs, it basically says how powerful your Reiatsu Based Attacks are.
Capt = {NPC} ShiniGami Captain, an NPC That resembles (badly) Zaraki Kenpachi. Capts are capable of using a Fissure-Slash which is quite powerful, but easy to dodge.
Lieu = {NPC} Shinigami Lieutenant, an NPC which Fires the Soukatsui Kidou. They walk around wielding Kira's Shikai, and are quite powerful.
Esp = {NPC} Espada Arrancar, the strongest NPC in the game. In V4 they will be stronger than any other
Petals: The Pink Toys Byakuya Shikai/Bankai Produces. Great for Sadomasochism.
Blades: The Big Black Knives Jiroubou Shikai/Bankai Produces. Great for Sadomasochism.
S&Mers: Sado (Masochists)
