Guest Eddy Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 From my first week I knew something was wrong with my shout count, I knew I hadnt shouted as much as it said and in the past few days ive been watching the number, so apparently yesterday I was the top shouter with 520 yet today im somehow the top shouter with 419. Craig care to elaborate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 It clears them down after a certain amount of time, so you are continually the top shouter even though it's deleting all of your old ones. In my gaming days, I would have said PWNED. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Harper. Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 A corruption of the word "Owned." This originated in an online game called Warcraft, where a map designer misspelled "owned." When the computer beat a player, it was supposed to say, so-and-so "has been owned." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Kheldar Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 (edited) Eddy : pwned However pwning n00bs was around a good decade or so before Warcraft even sprung forth from it's foul stinking birthplace ..... gnarr!

Daz Type-R Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Not a fan of Warcraft then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Kheldar Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Not a fan of Warcraft then? I can take it or leave it What bothers me us there doesn't seem to be room for another fully fledged MMORPG in the microcosm alongside it. (Bar EVE which is a freak unto itself.) Every other MMORPG of any depth is judged by the profit margins of WoW which is unviable. As such we've seen numerous good MMORPGs come and go, or worse go open source free to play! Completely unrelated to Eddy being pwned, but there you go --- I am here: http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=52.913021,-1.403739 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Kheldar Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 Agree 100% (and EVE is awesome). Oh I wasn't suggesting it isn't, it's just "too" immersive for my little brain Maybe if I had got into it back in the day when I was recommended it ....

Brantuk Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 If you click on "Prefs" at the bottom of the shoutbox to get the large format shoutbox, then look at the bottom of that one - you see the statistics for Top Shouter.
