pwned means owned, this word came about when it was misspelt, gamers in particular like to use this word as it is both insulting and humiliating to the person on the recieving end of the insult.

To make someone else look stupid by quoting them and saying something that makes them look like a complete idiot. hence owning them, or pwning them.
that takes place on online message boards. it happens lesser out of that.
other wise to totally beat someone at a game. one player was at full health and destroyed the other player, he sure pwned him.

Likely derived from a misspelling of 'owned'; possibly derived from the Latin verb pono, ponere (to put, place, set aside).
To thoroughly and totally overcome or surpass someone, often in a surprising or wholly humiliating fashion.
Most commonly refers to whaling on someone in video games.

Pwned is a highly disputed word that has evolved over the years from being a simple typo of the word "owned", which is commonly used in multiplayer games around the world. Today it had some to be a combination the words "owned" and "pawned".
Owned meaning that the a person was defeated so badly, that he has become the Owners bitch.
Pawned meaning that the newly owned person is not wanted, or worthy of the owners presence. Thus the owner has disposed of the person in a cheap manor (Pawn Shop).
To be pwned is to be owned, but at the same time rejected as being not worthy, and then disposed of.

"Pwned" meas u were overwhelmed by something or someone.
This word originated in Dota (warcraft III "mod")
because in the earliest version of this game, when you kill your enemy you need to take his head and sell it in a PAWN SHOP to get some gold. So it turns that, you have just "PAWNED" your enemy. Then the word "PAWNED" became "PWNED" for an easier typeing or maybe just to look more like another expression that means the same thing: "owned".
That's it. ^^
