Title: The word "Pwn"
Post by: Pistol Man on November 12, 2007, 04:33:04 am
Originally dates back to the days of WarCraft, when a map designer mispelled "Own" as "Pwn". What was originally supose to be "player has been owned." was "player has been pwned".

Pwn eventually grew from there and is now used throughout the online world, especially in online games.

So lets stop using this stupid word because it's for children  ;)

Instead of: You've been pwned
You have been fucked or You have been smoked. thats sounds more professional doesnt it? lol

In my opinion "pwned" or "owned" or any "pownzorororoxorzoz" sound too lame to use. :roll:

I don't see how the word is stupid or childish.

"You've been smoked": That statement is too weak.
"You've been fucked": [sarcasm]Yeah, that's so proffesional![/sarcasm]

Owned/Pwned is a great word which will not die off regarless of how much you dislike it  ;)

I never say owned/pwned without a good reason...

The good reason is when constant flamers/ minigun cheaters/ crashers get banned or when ban evaders that say suck my "Deck" get route blocked.  :cool:
