    I got owned because I read something wrong? What are you? 8?

    And, I only skim-read it, as I always do.

    Well I suggest you stop acting like it.

    4. owned 233 up, 67 down
    Originated as a term used by hackers to describe gaining possession of a system, having hacked a box and got root they basically control it as much as if it was theirs, thus it could be considered owned by them. From this it was encorporated into the cultures vernacular including the limited(and awkward to type) vocabulary of so called l33t speak(0wn3d) Would-be hackers would come to use the phrase when taking someone out with a ping flood or other DoS attack, and although no access to the victim's system (typically another newbie hanging around on the same irc channel speaking in numbers) was gained yet they were still said to be owned. From there is came to simply mean bettering (or ****ing over) someone and was even used to describe non-computer based events as described in the many other definitions. Though now its most common in CS games when someone kills you...

    Wow, you looked it up on urbandictionary.

    Owned also generally means proved wrong and made the person look like a fool.

    Because owned was originally used for that purpose.

    Now it's used because some has made a fool of themseleves or because they have been defeated.
