What does *Pwned* mean?
 

At first I thought it was a typo of owned, but I see it way too often now for that to be the case.

thanks

I think it was because "owned" was often misspelled by these nerds as "pwned" and somehow it caught on as the "cool" (geek cool) thing to do. I wish I didn't know this.

this is all very disappointing.

They are geeks and the can't type correctly? Then what the heck is pizowned or whatever that guys name is? And all this 1337 stuff? Computer geek stuff goes completely over my head, for several reasons Im sure.

No, I'm not a vet. I'm only 22 years old. My screenname is a variation of my real name.

LMAO. The entire time I was reading that I had the Jimmy Fallon computer guy image in my head saying it to me. Thanks for the explanation.

Re: What does *Pwned* mean?

Dude, that ain't white. That's drippy nosed skinny bastard with a squeeky voice.

Occasionally you will have the fat chain smoking bastard as well.

Funny thing is, it's the first four words from the post I quoted. Just uglier. I know people who can read that as quickly as they can normal text. To my credit, I at least have to stare at it for a little while.

Re: Here Ya Go...
 

Not I. I found one of the first unique balrog skins in the XPac though and sold it on eBay for around $500. Also, I played enough to warrant the term "professional" [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]
