Shoot I remember saying owned back in the Quake 2 & 3 days.

Originated as a term used by hackers to describe gaining possession of a system, having hacked a box and got root they basically control it as much as if it was theirs, thus it could be considered owned by them. From this it was encorporated into the cultures vernacular including the limited(and awkward to type) vocabulary of so called l33t speak(0wn3d) Would-be hackers would come to use the phrase when taking someone out with a ping flood or other DoS attack, and although no access to the victim's system (typically another newbie hanging around on the same irc channel speaking in numbers) was gained yet they were still said to be owned. From there is came to simply mean bettering (or fucking over) someone and was even used to describe non-computer based events as described in the many other definitions. Though now its most common in CS games when someone kills you...


found that 4th definition out of 65 on http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=owned

with an attitude like that, you will always be owned.

There is an important phrase you need to learn junio. It's "Act As If".
and to do that properly you need at least look the part. We want winner's here, not "pikers". A piker walks at the belt. A piker asks how much vacation time they get at $10/day. pfff, vacation time? People come to this forum for one reason: to get filthy rich. That's it! But if you really want it, you make those freakin sites, and we'll talk. But don't waste my freakin time.

ok that's it. :fart:
