Ownage vs Pwnage.
 
Discuss.

Chruser 2003-01-11 08:39 AM

Ownage has been better since the CliffyB days.

Well, Owned makes more sense than Pwned, but Pwned sounds alot funnier.

Hellmonkeys 2003-01-11 09:28 AM

Owned is a lot better. I hate made up words like 'Pwn' and 'j00' and all that crap :p.

Jamesadin 2003-01-11 09:44 AM

Pwned!

Silverjinx18 2003-01-11 10:01 AM

I dunno...I like using pwned as opposed to owned...

ask_rabber 2003-01-11 11:22 AM

you can generally tell who uses pwned vs owned or regular type vs "1337". the pwned and 1337 generally is d2 players who do not know what they are talkin about, and get real annoying real fast.

i stick with owned.

Owned > Pwned but Pwnt > Owned

Demosthenes 2003-01-11 01:14 PM

who gives a fuck...it all means the same thing. I personally like owned better because some ppl completely use that "l337" crap and it's confusing but who really cares...

Actually, pwned has its roots in Counterstrike.

My friends in real life have taken to using that work instead of owned for verbal taunting such as at LANs or whenever convienient. However, since pwned is difficult to pronounce (only being created because the lowercase "p" is similar to o), we say Poned, rhyming with Toned and Owned, even though that would be an incorrect pronounciation of it.

ask_rabber 2003-01-11 04:29 PM

did i say it came from d2? no. i just said generally d2 players use it...

Whoever made up "Pwned" needs to go back to Arab.

Medieval Bob 2003-01-11 05:04 PM

Arabia you mean? And... um... what connection does the replacement of an "o" with a "p" have with Arabia?

ask_rabber 2003-01-11 05:52 PM

its over your head bob.

Shade 2003-01-11 05:53 PM

Bob...take a look at rabber's title......yeah.....

!King_Amazon! 2003-01-11 05:55 PM

Go back to Arab Bob.

Medieval Bob 2003-01-11 05:57 PM

Damnit! I don't get it! I'm not from Arabia! *Defiant*

(jk.. upon closer inspection of sed title, I understand the meaning behind the statement)

I'm still not an Arab... *snif*

ask_rabber 2003-01-11 06:59 PM

even though you think you get it, you don't. there's more to it than you think.
