Ok, so today the dj of my local radio station brought up the word pwn, and within minutes him and people calling in started to talk about the word and started brining up ideas and theories of where it started or originated from.
So far the 3 I've heard are:
1. The Leter P is so close to the letter O when people would go to type own online the would constantly put pwn instead and it caught on from there.
2. The P repersents the word Pure, so pwn means Pure Ownage.
3. To tell someone you pwned them is to say you turn't them into a pawn of the game and they are worth nothing compard to you.
I have no idea where this word came from and figured I'd like to hear what your guys theories are on it.
