"pwn": A typo-deliberate version of own, a slang term that means to dominate. This could also be spelled "0\/\/n3d" or "pwn3d," among other variations. Online video game bullies or "griefers" often use this term.

ROFL.

""ph": often replaces "f," as in "phear" for "fear" (as in "ph34r my l33t skillz") and vice versa, such as spelling "phonetic" as "f0|\|371(.""

rofl... yes microsoft, i ph34r your l33t skillz

""rox0rs" Used in place of "rocks," typically to describe something impressive."

hahaha this one sticks out for some reason. so funny but I simply can't find the words....

This forum is full of law-breaking 'video game bullies' and 'griefers'.

rooofl did anyone follow the link to the part about "griefers"?

What griefers do
Typical griefer behavior includes: taunting others, especially beginners (also known as newbies); thwarting fellow teammates in the game; using inappropriate language; cheating; forming roving gangs with other griefers;

Known as griefers, snerts, cheese players, twinks, or just plain cyberbullies, chances are that a kid near you has been bothered by one of these ne'er-do-wells at least once while playing online multiplayer video games such as Halo 2, EverQuest, The Sims Online, SOCOM, and Star Wars Galaxies. Griefers are the Internet equivalent of playground bullies, who find fun in embarrassing and pushing around others.


Haha what the~~~ That just sounds reaaaly loserish... -_-
How would you feel, getting called a newbie playing Sims lol

10 tips for dealing with griefers

1.


Ignore them. If your child doesn't react to them, most griefers will eventually get bored and go away.

2.


Change game options. Have your kids play games with changeable rules or options that prevent certain griefer tactics, such as eliminating teammates.

3.


Create a private game. Most newer, multiplayer video games and related sites allow players to form their own exclusive games that permit only their friends to play.

4.


Play on sites with strict rules. Play on game sites with enforceable codes of conduct or terms of service and live game administrators who can ban serial griefers.

5.


Do something else. If a griefer won't stop bothering your child, have them try a different game, or take a break and come back later.

6.


Report game glitches. Work with your child to identify exploitable glitches in the game or new methods of cheating. Report these to the game site administrator.

7.


Play games that limit griefers. Suggest playing newer games that provide specific resources for dealing with griefers, such as reporting offenders to game administrators, message blocking or muting, and being able to vote griefers off.

8.


Don't fight fire with fire. Make sure your child isn't using griefers' own tactics against them, as this will likely encourage more bad behavior, or worse, label your child as a griefer.

9.


Avoid using provocative names. Preempt any problems by having your child avoid screen names or nicknames (often referred to as gamertags) that could encourage griefer behavior.

10.


Don't give out personal information. Griefers (or anyone else) can use real names, phone numbers, and home or e-mail addresses, to further harass your child or cause other problems.
