pwned is an internet lingo that came around when nerds decieded that normal spelling was too mundane and began inventing words like 'pwned, leet/ l337 , ownxored, LMAO, etc. These words started cropping up in the internet around 99-2001 period, where i was active with online gaming ( me = bad***** FPS playa).

Pwn (/poʊn/, /puːn/, /pəʔˈoʊn/, /pɔːn/, /piˈoʊn/, /pwəʔˈn̩/) is a leetspeak slang term, derived from the word "own",[1][2][3] that implies domination or humiliation of a rival, used primarily in the Internet gaming culture to taunt an opponent who has just been soundly defeated. Past tense is sometimes spelled pwnt (pronounced with a t sound), pwned, pwnd, pwn3d, or powned (with the standard d sound). Examples include "pwnage" or "You just got pwned!" More obscure phrases include "über-pwnage", "pwningful", and "spread that bread with pwnsauce". In hacker jargon, to "pwn" means "to compromise" or "to control," specifically another computer (server or PC), web site, gateway device, or application. It is synonymous with one of the definitions of hacking or cracking. An outside party who has "owned" or "pwned" a system has obtained unauthorized administrative control of the system. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pwn
