ahahahahaahahahaahahahaah
Seeing the fact that you first of all can't use a correct punctation. And second, have taken a name from Uriah Heep, I wonder if you should spend MORE time in the dungeon instead to balance out the fact that you can't handle a discussion on a level far above "OMGWTFPWNBBQ!!".

Am I the only one who didn't miss the fact that we're not speaking latin and that latin is just a ground for our current language..
What language is that then? English has no ground in Latin.
It's like virus, the plural is viruses, not viri. I've never seen "boni" before. 
Language is fluid and changeable. It becomes what is used, not what should be used.
In biology the word virii (yes, with 2 i's) is commonly used but in IT the plural viruses is more commonly used. Neither is wrong, neither is exclusive, both are used.
However, back to the original point, the word boni is not one I have ever seen or heard used anywhere else. I have *always* heard/read the plural to be bonuses which would mean that using boni is much less likely to lead to you being understood than if bonuses had been used.
Which is the point of language, yes? Understanding

English is most illogical choice to world language. Even native speakers seem to have problems with spelling and syllabication. 
However, I must confess that it is beautiful to listen and watch. It is like very illogical and chaotic sexy blonde who is leading world class super enterprise (that is going to bankruptcy any moment).
