A rule originating on the Something Awful message boards that calls for the banning of a member who does not follow his own proclamation. These proclamations are typically in the form of "If X happens, I will do Y." The person who posts the claim is asked to follow through with his promised act or be banned for lying.
This rule originated from a forum member, Toxx, stating he would tape together the parts of his nether regions if a message board topic reached 5,000 replies. The Something Awful Administrator ordered that he post pictures of the completed act. No pictures were produced, and Toxx was banned as a result. The Toxx clause was instituted as a rule to discourage future members from making exaggerated claims.
Example poster 1: "If he sells this laptop to me for $200, I will eat my shorts."
Example poster 2: "Sell it to him just so we can test the Toxx clause."

A term used to define a game that, despite not getting a lot of attention from its developer, retains a large playerbase.
Named after one of the best examples of such phenomenon: Team Fortress 2.
Randy: "Skyrim is a dead game, why do people still talk about it"
Alex: "Because it's a TF2 Clause."

Alex: "It maintains a playerbase without getting much attention from the devs."
Legend has it that the gift of banter is handed down to unsuspecting trainee Banter Merchant's through a mysterious figure named Banter Clause. There has never been any convincing or sound historical evidence to support the myth as indeed true. But supposed sightings have occurred during many Banterful occassions such as lads on the pre lash and at the party which is full of muff and beer! This makes Banter Clause a worthy LAD!
John: 'Its the night before Friggies big party! I hope Banter Clause gives me a good supply of Banter for the LOL's that should ensue!'
Russell: 'Yeah! I've been a banterful chap this week! So I hope I'm in Banter Clause's good books!
John: 'OOO I'm sceptical mate, don't think you were enough of a banterful top lad when you were pulling that bird last night mate!'
Russell: ':('

This nutsack was trying to have us believe that he had taken out five level 80 Horde, which included a ret pally and a fire-specced mage, on his rogue solo.
We called on the SSORBS Clause, and he vanished from the forums.

The unwritten, tiny letters of an agreement and or the subsequent evocation of more of your money due to the unnamed clause.
While the price is listed at $500, with the Munch Clause you're looking closer to $1,500.
