Turbined

(v) - Taking a seven year old music system and revamping it in such a way that it breaks the volume balance between instruments, breaks the sound quality of individual instruments and renders the ability to play large ensemble pieces largely impossible.

To be Turbined is to have your transcribed songs *trashed* due to someone's bright idea to release half-assed code into the live game you are still wacky enough to pay for.

Turbined - the best way to kill a game.
"They Turbined the music system even though we begged them not to release this crap into live gameplay!"

"The devs Turbined themselves when they released a brokeass music system, evidenced by how many players have decided to leave."

"When the musicians were Turbined, a lot of them cancelled their VIP subscriptions."
