keke – Online buddy ‘Pwns’ self
by TravelingWebGuy on May.30, 2009, under Online
to Pwn is a leetspeak slang term, derived from the verb “own”, as meaning to appropriate or to conquer to gain ownership. The term implies domination or humiliation of a rival used primarily in the Internet gaming culture to taunt an opponent who has just been soundly defeated (e.g. “You just got pwned!”).
Short but sweet post here. I was checking some threads on the web forum I frequent, and one of the users there posted a thread in our General Forum where he saw an extremly long CAPTCHA request that was displayed when he wanted to add a friend.

ewites Website Template

A few months ago I got a some energy to work on a new theme for the web forum I frequent. I’ve been a member here for about 7 years now and have met a lot of really cool people, and a few assholes as well.

About six months ago the place went under new adminship, for the better, even though things haven’t changed all that much, but with the new owner, I think a lot of the users felt more secure… If you register, you’ll understand what I mean by “more secure”. And since that change, I’ve been able to do a lot of work helping with the sites design, logos, style sheets for certain areas, wiki, web development information, and anything else that was needed, or I just decided to up and work on something and showed the “duder” later. I could have been a moderator there (in a community of 4,000+) if I would of kept a handle on my hot head, but at times, I let things get the best of me and I say it how I see it.
