AreeSongRules Posted May 22, 2004 Share Posted May 22, 2004 What the hell does "pwned" mean? I don't understand the "p" being there instead of the "o". Is it a way for people to be cute? Can I say "you got bwned! or lwned!". Please someone, enlighten me, I am so not caught up with today's slang. And one last question, why does the letter "k" refer to a strikeout? Is there a special meaning to that letter? Anyone know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geemoney Posted May 23, 2004 Share Posted May 23, 2004 And one last question, why does the letter "k" refer to a strikeout? Is there a special meaning to that letter? Anyone know? I don't know about PWN3D, all I know is it's pretty funny. As for the origin of "K", I'm guessing they couldn't use "S" because it already stood for "sacrifice hit", so they just decided to pick another letter.

Shaq-Man Posted May 23, 2004 Share Posted May 23, 2004 What the hell does "pwned" mean? I don't understand the "p" being there instead of the "o". Is it a way for people to be cute? Can I say "you got bwned! or lwned!". a friend told me that it originated on a popular gaming message board in which a poster typo'd the letter O in OWNED with a P, and it just went off from there. i don't know if that's the real origin or not, but it's definitely huge in gaming circles and it's probably related to a typo. using a zero for the O and using a three for the E is leet speak... similar to how some kids like to type in alternating caps, e.g. aReeSoNGRuLZ, but more "elite" and difficult to read.

Libelula Posted May 23, 2004 Share Posted May 23, 2004 I always though they called it a K because the batter looks like a K when he swings and misses. There has to be some sort of story that explains this. Like Uncle Charlie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
