How do you Pronounce "pwned"?

ModerasianModerasian's Official Book of Grammar recognizes two proper pronunciations of "pwn."1. Pown. Rhymes with "own," but with a P in the front.2. Own. Since "pwn" is technically a misspelling of "own," it can be read simply as "own," as if the P were an O.Never use these pronunciations: pawn, poon, poun(d)Etymology: Pwn is a misspelling of own. That is all. Don't make up some crap about the word. Therefore, nu885 is wrong, simple as that.
I believe poon means vagina.

nu885no, believe me what i said is true.. most people may say pwned out of ignorance but seriously it means part owned any old school halo or half-life player could tell you that. :P
Ummm...are you sure you're not just smoking weed? Because it certainly doesn't mean "part owned". Any person knows that. Seriously, who told you it meant that because it sounds like they're full of crap.

"Owned" is actually the correct way to pronounce it, although I have heard "powned" (which sounds like: "POHND").

No, "owned" is how you pronounce "owned". Notice, there is a "p" in pwned. Somehow I can't seem to find a way to make the "p" create an "o" sound.

Nobody pronounces the "p" as an "o" unless they are a n00b. :p

technically....there is, in all actuality, no letter there, whether it be an o or an a or an e, since there is no letter, what does it matter how we pronounce it? it's not like we ever speak it, and more than likely never will, so just pronounce it how you do, and all will be well! (i for one pronounce it pawned 0_o)

Why does that affect the pronunciation? It could just be wrong like all those other guys.
