"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. ^^

Pwned is simply slang for owned. See the example for usage.
Pwned is a word that cannot be pinpointed to be originating in anyplace. There is no proof that it came from WarCraft, or Quake, or whatever. I believe it was misspelled by an IRC n00b, and later, people imitated him. Less informed people saw these experienced people using this, and they started too as well.

Other than all the bullshit the other retards added, i know the real maeinging of pwned. its all started when i was 5. i was on camp and i noticed that my friend was in the shower for an awful long time. i opened the door and to my suprise there he was shoving chopsticks up his ass. i immediantwely out of instinct yelled out pwned and everyone sailing the 7 servers of warcraft heard me. THE END SO STOP MAKING THINGS UP NOW U KNOW TEH REAL MEANING
