I started this page because I was frustrated but I never imagined so many of you would feel the same way about our culture. Seeing your comments makes it clear that this isn't just about a word but about keeping the gaming community authentic. Thank you for showing me that I am definitely not fighting this alone.

I really thought this might just be a quiet note to myself, but the momentum you have all built is honestly staggering. Seeing so many people care about preserving our language is down to your efforts and not mine. We have proven that the community is watching even when companies think we are not.

Ridiculous. Everyone knows where that word came from. Companies just want to snatch up anything cool and ruin it for the rest of us.
This is exactly why gaming culture is dying. They just want that sweet money. Leave it for the gamers!!
Seriously? Trademarking slang now? What is next. You can't just take internet culture and slap a logo on it.
Total greedy corporate move. Stop trying to trademark gamer culture.
Pwnage has been around for forever. How can they even try to own a word like that?? Leave it alone.
