Pwned-Poned or Pooned Means owned, originated probably from PC gaming, just like 1337 talk. ------------- |

A corruption of the word "Owned." This originated in an online game
called Warcraft, where a map designer misspelled "owned." When the
computer beat a player, it was supposed to say, so-and-so "has been
owned." Instead, it said, so-and-so "has been pwned." It basically means "to own" or to be dominated by an opponent or situation, especially by some god-like or computer-like force. ------------- [IMG]http://i27.tinypic.com/1538fbc.jpg"> Squeeze Box ☣ |

While this topic is up, I might as well embarrass myself and ask what "1337" means, the meaning has always eluded me -------------

It started as "elite" and moved to "313373" then moved to "1337". It is pronounced "leet"... ------------- Something unknown is doing we don't know what. That is what our knowledge amounts to. - Sir Arthur Eddington |

The only reason I ask is because with the world progressively getting dumber and people teaching each other how to be illiterate, if someone does speak out, we'll all be like George Bush. "They misunderstanded me" Honestly people saying stuff like "j00, pwned, cuz, wut, etc." does absolutely nothing. It doesn't save time, it doesn't make you look smart, so whats the point? As I said, even if you think if can save you time when typing, does it really mater if your post, IM, etc. is sent 1 or 2 seconds faster? Come on people. ------------- http://img25.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img25&image=mysnowboard9md.jpg">

Basicly its used to confuse stupid people like you and to force you to
ask stupid questions, so in the end it is you getting pwned.

Wow, the immaturity of some of you people is astounding. Just because alot of you people are illiterate and obsessed with typing 1.5 seconds faster doesnt mean you have to decrease the IQ of those around you by them having to read your stupid posts. ------------- http://img25.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img25&image=mysnowboard9md.jpg">

Sooner or later, you will just start to block out the dumb people.There are a lot, so It'll be hard, but you'll pull through. |
