'''BMW''' is the overarching name of the group. It's an acronym standing for [[BEEFY BOYS]], [[MOTHER]], [[Wideboys]], although originally the name was chosen when several [[Rust]] clans from the [[SomethingAwful]] server, [[Goon Playground]], who all had car theme names (ie. [[FORD]], [[GM]]) combined forces and began raiding pubbies (derogatory term for non-group members). The group renamed twice afterwards, first to '''Wrongthink Tank''' (shortened to WTT) then finally to '''Wideboys''', which is arguably the coolest name possible. We also have a political/controversial posting offshoot called '''BEEFY BOYS''' but we aren't addressing that right now. | '''BMW''' is the overarching name of the group.
