What happened to internet lingo? Why is no one saying "pwned" in video games anymore?
Why is your character left-handed?
>>345360260
The kids who said "pwned" etc have grown up and been replaced by kids saying "gg" "rekt" and spamming memes. It's just the progression of fads.
>>345360260
The normafag age happened.
>>345360351
Retards insist that playing with the left handed veiw model is optimal. They are garbage generally.
>>345360391
gg has been spouted for a long while. It didn't emerge to replace anything else
>>345360391
How is saying "gg" a bad thing? Also it's not a new thing, this has been said during late 90s too.
I started ironically saying "owned" again a few months ago, and now it's starting to become unironic. It's been a while since it was annoying to hear it all the time so I could see it coming back eventually.
>>345360618
It's better if your right eye is dominant, at least for me.
>>345360496
you're retarded. everyone just says rekt now. same thing, different word.
lots of people appeared that felt like they would be part of the group if they abused the lingo 24/7
omg lol ikr g2g bfn btw follow me on twitter #90skids
>>345360351
>there are only right-handed players
>>345360260
became co-opted my marketing people as "a thing teens say" and died when the "naughties teen" demo died aka those who where teens 17 years ago stopped being teens
>>345360260
language evolves over time, and can move more rapidly in the context of subcultural vernacular. This is magnified with the effects of globalization/the internet

>community starts saying x
>facebook faggots see x and start saying x
>community no longer says x/shuns x
See peepee frog, "pwnd", trollface, etc.
>>345360260
Because rektangled and kys are superior

I remember thinking this was the coolest shit ever as a kid
>>345360743
>How is saying "gg" a bad thing?
Because now it's rude not to say gg. Even if the game was a snoozefest. It's become meaningless.
>>345360260
THAT WAS EPIC
EPIC FOR THE WIN

You have to be 18+ to use this site.
>>345360351
left handed is more accurate
>>345362351
If I was underage I wouldn't be able to post here you cuck
Dear /v/,
I notice you pronounce 'pwn' as 'own', but me and my friends say 'pone'. What gives?
-anon
>>345362557
oh yeah true, fuck my bad.
>>345362184
That's not really true any more. If you write gg the other person/team just presume you're being sarcastic and get offended anyway most of the time.

>>345360260
because memes happened
>>345362646

>>345362646
You are a fag
>>345362679
>say gg
>your being sarcastic
>don't say gg
>your mad / being rude
>>345362679
>back then if you wanted to insult someone you just typed an insult like owned and you were clear on your intentions
>nowadays everything is covered in at least 3 layers of irony

Any oldfags remember w00t?
>>345360351
Left-handed models were default in Counter-Strike for a long time.
>be 12
>have q3arena shareware demo thing that gave you one map (retribution?)
>join one of the only servers that kept that map on rotation
>clan is called "CoC"
>want to join CoC bad
>have to 1v1 the guild master to 10 while all other clan members are in game scattered around watching
>lose 9-10
> "gj anon, you are now CoC"
>get bullied by all other clans
> mistakes were made
RIP INTERNET GAMING

slang comes and goes, fuccboi, soon terms like rekt and git gud will go away too, family
>>345363643
this reminds me of the old CSTOONs flashes... those were the days.
THIS KID PUSHES LIKE A FUCKING IDIOT DUDE
i still say owned
>>345360743
SOMEONES SALTY XD want some salt with that my butthurt friend?
-the analplunderingpyro
>>345360743
Gg has become an insult in a lot of games . I mean , you have a close match that pushes bother teams to their limit , that's gg. But I'd say shit like GOODFUCKING GAME but a 2 minute match is not gg
>>345360260
>kys
this is the worst of the new lingo the kids are saying these days
>>345360391
Well people don't use it the same way any more. Other to be the player who loss or forfeited the match would say gg first. Now you get "gg ez" from the winning player first.
>>345364890
What are you supposed to say then? Bg? That's even more insulting.
there was a time when
"you sir , win the internet"
"trollololo u mad ?"
"+ 100 internets"
etc were all normal, unironic phrases on 4chan , let that sing in for a while
>>345364851
fucking overwatch has shit bullshit endlessly. you so much as complain about anything and everyone's screaming SALT SALT SALT
>>345365579
Yes, That was after 4chan went to shit
>>345366808
buddy, emoticons and shit like epic wins were here from day 1
>>345360260
>internet lingo
I hate it. I hate all of it.
>>345365219
you say how you fucking felt about the match or nothing at all
>>345370429
i felt the match was a good game, i won. so i say good game
i see no problem with that.
>>345370823
>i felt the match was a good game
reported. Fucking sarcastic asshole.
>>345367501
epic zozzle my meme mah meme meme
>>345360260
That decal is epic, epic for the win!
>>345360260
the same reason regular slang has changed, senpai
>>345360260
Look I'm on the cutting edge of internet lingo kiddo, and lemme tell you blacklivesmatters are constantly cuckgrinding their trans parts when im around. I assure you that yourself.
>>345378706
What
>>345360260
Because this generation is creatively bankrupt. Not defending pwned as some genius lingo, but at least we could insult people.
