Years ago there was this drama over retards complaining about evasion on online out of the argument Smocuck banned evasion, and therefore the argument evasion is "broken" despite not many people use it online.
This caused a bunch of morons trying to force Smogon """""fair"""" rules on official formats.
To make things worse, Verlisify (who was big poketuber then) started waging a war on smogon, and being the cringelord he is, it made even more idiots go on and suck Smogon's cock and their rules, making Smogon a near official entity and making many newcomers think Smogon rules were official.
Then anons came with with the term fanfic meta to discredit Smogonites, since the phrase hit straight to their souls.
Eventually Smogon influence on official metas died out somewhere midways gen 6, so the catchphrase doesn't have the impact it used to.
