 Pwn leetspeak? (I don't believe so) 

I wrote in  (please read more detail there) about how I disagree that words like ""pwn"" are anything to do with leetspeak. They are more correctly ""gamer-speak"" or ""Internet slang"". There seems to be some fundamental misunderstanding of what leet-speak is in both these articles. The two should not be confused apart from that there are some crossover usage because most hackers/crackers are also gamers. Consequently, references to ""pwn"" and other Internet slang terms should not be in the main body of this article as they are not leet or leet-speak.

Please feel free to support or disagree here and  that there should be more distinction between what is properly leetspeak, gamer-speak/Internet slang in these articles (but reflecting the crossover usage where it occurs). Thanks. 82.44.93.55  "
