[Keef]

You did too, you git! >:D<

Won't be forever, just felt like a change, and trying to think of something...

Sure "Keef" will be back.

[SimonM]

Aren't you at all worried some miscreant might now nip over and claim "Keef" for themselves though? :)

[Keef]

ADMIN!!!!!!!!!!! Could you please reserve Keef for me :-$

If it does happen, I'll have to bump the "My missus thinks Keef is a numpty" thread ;-)

[Ant]

I think I'm being a bit slow. I only just now got the whole Slash/Slosh thing.

Duhr.

I have some sad friends. If I didn't learn this stuff half their conversations would go over my head.

Wikipedia enlightens us:

Pwn (/oʊn/, /poʊn/, /pəʔˈoʊn/, /pɔ??n/, /piˈoʊn/, /pwəʔˈn̩/) is a slang term that implies domination or humiliation of a rival, used primarily in the Internet gaming culture to taunt an opponent that has just been soundly defeated. Past tense is sometimes spelled pwnt (pronounced with a t sound) or pwned (with the standard d sound). Examples include "pwnage" or "you just got pwned". It can also be used, especially by non-gamers, in the context of getting "pwned" by The Man.

The word "pwn" may have arisen and spread as a common typo of the word "own," due to the proximity of the 'p' and 'o' keys on a standard English keyboard. Alternatively, the word pwnage may have been created as a portmanteau of the words "pure" and "ownage," "perfect" and "ownage," or "powerful" and "ownage." Similarly, "pwn" may have derived from "powerfully owned," such as you just got powerfully owned (shortened to you just got pwned).

Mockney Piers and Asset float my boat.

How odd - I was going to post the very same thing - great name

(and nice gaming reference too MP)

Those of us with real names are never going to stand a chance with this tho'

Oh I think HonaloochieB is a good un too

[Jah Lush]

Can someone please tell us what the whole thing means then if its so good. Some of us need to be enlightened.

[Brendan]

Speak for yourself Sean. Brendan is in fact a screamingly funny and playfully intelligent acronym. You lot just haven?t got yet.

[mockney piers]

the first three letters are Dulwichmums favourite phrase. the next three are an expression of bemusement, and as pointed out the last three are horrifically geeky, but then I am a bit.

and fanks Honaloochie[A/B]

I've always liked Fear N Boozing, and Annasfield (although I'm ashamed as a Liverpool fan to say that I didn't click for a while).

[Slosh]

I've always rather liked the name Keef ;-)

[SeanMacGabhann]

[Annasfield]

Cheers Keef - although to be fair Annafield might have clicked a little quicker..... ;-)
