IQ testing now required before posting

[BitcoinFX]

In order to improve the overall forum experience, going forward we are only going to allow smart people to post. To determine your intelligence, you will be required to answer a question every time you post (or edit your post). Your answers will be used to calculate your IQ, and starting next week, everyone with an IQ below 120 will be banned.

Let's make Bitcointalk.org into the ivory tower of excellence that it was always meant to be!

Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear ...

Finding the link of the test is the first part of the test. Well done!

and starting next week, everyone with an IQ below 120 will be banned.

What about Inactive accounts Including Satoshi, Lauda, Vod, and many more? all of them will be banned or there will be some exceptions?

What about local people like Russia and China. There are a few people who post on their local board for maximum time. Their 98% Post on their respective local board because they are not fluent in English. Whenever they post in English, They use a translator. So, Intentionally we ban them? right?

satoshi isn't a person, it's a movement. Banning him isn't even possible.

Poor theymos, all your efforts did not work to make this forum great again :-P

Some people are taking this literally, like really...?

[dkbit98]

I always wondered whats my bitcointalk IQ score, so I guess this could be a dream come true but I never got a chance to send answers for any test yet.
Do we have any list of rankings to see who has the highest IQ in the forum?

EDIT... I just received it:

We are now only allowing smart people to post. To prove your intelligence, you must answer the following question:
Tawaret was a goddess who protected women during pregnancy and childbirth. She was most often depicted with the head of a hippopotamus, arms and legs of a lion, back and tail of a crocodile, and breasts and stomach of a pregnant woman.

Brilliant.

April fools can be more realistic in some cases and maybe they thought its really a big deal.
Well, we are in the forum and this is a yearly event so old users already familiar with this scenario, and this year we prove that not all have a good IQ here. 

I’m afraid to answer the questions, I’m ok now with 100 IQ. 

[MrCryptHodl]

Hope i have an high level QI, don't want to be Ban  

Update : it's look like my QI is ok now XD

[LFC_Bitcoin]

Very interesting twist, I don’t think I would ever guess this little game/plot by theymos. He really does mix it up every year doesn’t he. I think my favourite was the COVID, weird font year

[LTU_btc]

To be honest, most of questions is really difficult. I tried not to cheat and haven't googled to find answer. Interesting, who have highest IQ on Bitcointalk?
IMO, it was one of the best April Fools Day prank on Bitcointalk. Kudos to theymos for it.

I went to some IQ of having to sell my collectibles on Ebay ahah XD

yes some questions are really difficult hahaha in any case thank you for this beautiful april fool!

[Erumo]

I can't find the link to that test, can anyone share the link here?

That means you have already failed at this test

Hope theymos will post forum IQ results on April 2. Excited to find who is the dumbest (I mean special) among us.

It would be great, if theymos would add a timer, because dumb can search google for answers, to hide their true personality

He managed to get below 100, so knowingly or not he participated in the test  

[tyz]

Honestly, I really like this feature! I hope it stays and is not shut down after the first of April. It forces people to think a bit before sending their post.
Even if certainly some Google the answers you can still prevent too much bullshit is written.

Edit: For this post, I had the question, "Which of the following cities is not the capital of a country in the European Union?"
The correct answer was Zurich for Switzerland. The only problem here is that Switzerland is not in the EU and therefore the question is already wrong

Thanks for your help mate, but still can't find it.
I think this is done only for privileged forum members, a new gang is being formed, "smart, high IQ members"

[BlackHatCoiner]

We've given KYC, (fake) bitcoins for (fake!) NFTs and now an IQ test? That's a humor.  

[irfan_pak10]

Interesting   just making sure my IQ above 120  


Oops

There is still some hope. At least this questionnaire will give us a better general knowledge.

I only have one complaint to make, there should be a way for the person to know if they answered correctly or not.
