Pwn leetspeak I dont 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 gamerspeak or Internet slang There seems to be some fundamental misunderstanding of what leetspeak is in both these articles The two should not be confused apart from that there are some crossover usage because most hackerscrackers 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 leetspeak  Please feel free to support or disagree here and  that there should be more distinction between what is properly leetspeak gamerspeakInternet slang in these articles but reflecting the crossover usage where it occurs Thanks
