You're pretty smart yourself Zen, but never seen your true capabilities
I'd say I'm a top 25 in active posters
gauging IQ on how articulate people post. you guys are idiots. im smarter than all of you.
[QUOTE=gigantes]funny?? i'm sure peoople consider it downright hilarious!
...
bonus question: what happens when a person burdened by a god complex looks up the definition of "god complex?"
do they see themselves mirrored back? i would assume not, so the real question is- what type of rationalization do they usually fall in to in order to hold off the forces of self-consciousness?
less godly minds want to know.[/QUOTE]
It's not a burden to self. It's more of a burden to people with inferiority complexes.
Every definition should be applied to self. You ask, "Is this me?" Then you laugh and say NAHHHH.
Don't forget, though, that some people really are on a different level.

I definitely don't belong there. Know why? Cause I don't even remember posting in this thread :oldlol:
Gigantes get your name in there, stop being so damn humble. I also wanna give jello a shout out, that dude opened my mind about industrialization a while ago. Even though he's a giant dick, but its all good. Also LJJ, I enjoy reading his posts.
I forgot to include RidonKs on my list.

[QUOTE=chips93]seems like a lot of the smarter posters are the more cynical ones[/QUOTE]
I think often people confuse confidence with intelligence; especially here. The average InsideHoops poster is supposedly six foot six, the next big name rapper about to breakout, has the wickedest jumpshot or cross-up, pulls the most women, packing a footlong, swag level 9k, and of course, an IQ of 152.
:oldlol:
No one wants to believe they're of average intelligence ... but come on guys ... the average poster here is of average intelligence. There can't be 50-11 legit geniuses here.
There's many nerdy lame ducks here that I'm sure in RL be beasting on the loser scale, perhaps fitting the profile of socially awkward smart as hell future rocket scientist - but - the reality is instead of being a genius in the making, the final product is just your average joe. Average joe with average level of intelligence; they're just dominating the leaderboards on said loser scale.
=P
There's obviously many intelligent folks here. Exactly who they are, how many, etc. - is up for debate.
Are there any actual legit geniuses here @ ISH? With so many members, it's certainly possible.

why do you think that the average time to get the confirm e mail so you can finally post on this forum is about 8-12 weeks

Dolphin really mindraped this guy.
I've seen some really smart people on here. After reading their articulated thoughts, makes me feel like Derrick Rose.

Anyone here feel like having big balls and great social skills beats out pure IQ nowadays?
I fukking sukk at arguing but have an insane ability to process information quickly and lots of it.
Meanwhile guys like Rasheed1 don't seem to be bookwormy but are good at articulating words and responses.

IQ doesn't equal pure intelligence. Having a high IQ means you are really good at solving the type of puzzles they put on IQ tests. We've all seen people that are brilliant when it comes to doing math or logic-based problems but can't talk to another human being worth sh*t.
There are people that are social geniuses, musical geniuses, athletes that can process spatial awareness at a high level is a form of genius, etc.
And I totally agree. Having great social skills far outweighs anybody's ability to be great a math or programming or some sh*t like that. In law school for example, there is a saying that goes like "all the A students become professors, all the B students become judges, and the C students make all the money." It's because most of the time all the kids who are dedicated enough in their studies to get straight A's in the program are socially inept, and can't handle the the social demands of the practice.

This got to be one of the dumbest and more ignorant thing i have ever laid my eyes upon.
Sorry your are butthurt because your IQ score is low, but you're not living on a cave right now thanks to the guys with high IQ.
You can teach social skills, you can't teach high IQ. And ever wonder that those guys have low social skills because the were always picked on by those guys with "great socials skills".
Your ignorance is truly remarkable. That part of high IQ = good at IQ puzzles is brilliant!

Agreed. He's got a pretty dry sense of humor too. He comes across as someone who could engage in some intense conversation but would also be down to going out and getting stupid drunk.

Actually I'm pretty much a Brooklyn Nets fan these days. I was too young for glory days of the Knicks and my Dad was a Dave Cowens fan, so I grew up a as a Celtics fan even before they drafted Bird, but I haven't been a hardcore fan of any team sine I was in my 20's. Actually when I joined ISH it was part of return to basketball fandom brought on by the Magic-Bird nostalgia that was going around. I did, of course, root for the Celtics against LA in recent years.

Agreed, I have different political views, but respect his knowledge and am very impressed with his knowledge on a variety of subjects.
I'd also mention ThaRegul8r, Psileas, Fatal9(doesn't post here anymore,though) and KBlaze off the top of my head. I'm probably forgetting some, but I primarily post on the NBA board.
