IQ testing now required before posting

[Falconer]

Astoundingly, its just as difficult to get below 70 as it is to get to 130.  

But lets see how long we can get it. Lowest one wins.

It's almost impossible for me to answer the question correctly without using the google search feature or GitHub, theymos was absolutely brilliant on april 1st this time as i'm sure those are some tough questions to answer. ha ha ha.

Thanks theymos, those are some silly questions for me. Admit that my IQ is too low to find the right answer without help.

I am so scared to post because I've been told my posts lower IQ and it's literally true

[Etranger]

This is really funny  I've already started looking for a topic on how activity, merit and IQ would be mutually coordinated.
I also wonder, why in this thread I don`t see IQ under member`s stats?

I'm seeing it right under merit

Also the answer to this question is where I live :O


In 1908, this city became the first in the United States to institute chlorination of its water. Prior to this the death rate due to water born diseases, such as typhoid fever and cholera, were extremely high.

 Theymos must definitely be part of this entire plot to overrun the world by controlling our minds.

Nah, he probably collects all our answers in a database for later use by a special AI-based algorithm to serve us personalized ads, or to do some other shit on the forum. As he said, his goal is to "improve the overall forum experience".

I hope he does this, otherwise it's just a shit end to a shit script and a waste of our time.  

[Irazzzta]

very interesting, but I'm sure my account will always get banned after posting and IQ tests. Please don't make this rule work, I hope it's just april fools.

Which brings up an interesting dilemma - should we avoid reading posts made by users with low IQs? I know I lose an IQ point every time I report 100 shitposts, I don't need any more brain damage.

Hahaha, this the best April fool gift today, good one theymos, this one almost got me, I shivered for like a minute of two  ,
But come to think of it, if the ban thing should really be as theymos said it, am just imagining how many users are gonna get banned by next week, more than half of the current number of users here  will be banned  , some users that are not as active will come back and meet a banned account and wouldn't even know their offense... Lol 😂

Definitely; some of the posts on this forum are worse for one's mental health than mainstream media, and that's saying something. Why do you think I have so many users on Ignore?

I gotta say, you are a very smart person.

I present you all... the LOW IQ FILTER script:

Just change MIN_IQ to the value your time is worth and save some brain cells.

He is not serving us.  He must be serving all of this information to the Reptilians.  This or to some Intelligence Agency.  Either way, it will definitely be used against us in the very near future in order to fulfill their terrifying plans.

I do agree with you there is cultural bias in the questions, they seem to be about all things related to the USA.

That is because USA has to rule the world and Bitcointalk is part of it.  Now hear me out.

The OP has 76 words excluding 'Bitcointalk.org'.  7 + 6 is 13.  13 is also the number of characters 'Administrator' has.
Take 04 01 2022.  4 + 1 + 2 + 2 + 2 is 11.  11 is also the number of characters 'Legendary' has.
Now add 11 to 13.  That is 24.  He said starting from next week everyone with IQ under 120 will be banned.  Next week is second week of April.  That is 2'nd week of the 4'th month.  2, 4.

2 times 4 is 8.  He said sub 120 means getting banned.  Add 8 to 120 and you get the current IQ of theymos.

This is all related.  It is secret numbers he is choosing in order to plead alliance to the Reptilians.

There you go, bastard!  You might have intruded my privacy today but I outsmarted you this time around.  Also.  If you see my IQ I am NOT dumb.  I just specifically put random answers in order to fool theymos.

If you are losing IQ points every 100 shit posts, does this not mean soon you should avoid reading your own posts too?!

I'm surprised that this doesn't require us to do advanced calculus, organic chemistry, or read a novel and then write a long essay on it.

One can only hope that those will be future iterations of this algorithm.

My only criticism of this is that it provides a training ground for our future AI overlords (who will learn this more quickly than today's youth and not-youth). It should be made more difficult so that the AI algorithms can learn these things and become more intelligent than the rest of us more quickly, to help them in their uprising and eventual subjugation of us. I, for one, am tired of all of the fresh accounts posting "I lost 50 milllioonn bitc oin with my super speccial thing iss probabbbly a virruss and noat compleetly mad upp". So this is a welcome change.

It's not a dilemma. It's just the well-known shitposting technique.

They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Seriously now, I'm impressed by how some people have the time and willingness to clean up this mess voluntarily by reading and reporting every kind of shitpost. Congrats and thanks, but I find it masochistic.

[bitcoinartproject]

I got an IQ question and all the options were wrong.  WTF do I do? lol I left them blank.

[kaggie]

10 wrong answers didn't budge. I believe I have found the floor. You're welcome.

Who truly has the highest IQ among us all?

Those who test the system, finding its flaws, and who contribute to the overall understanding to society?

One thing is clear, it's not you based on your score!

[Mbitr]

I wonder how much the percentage of spam posts has increased today ? Oops - sorry - major oxymoron 

[Lizzylove1]

I posted this to our group, the tension was very high, while I sit back to enjoy my time, until a lady came online and said "It's the tradition of the day" I nodded with a Meme in affirmation. Thanks for this great platform, it  has improved my life.

[Fortify]

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!

I came across this example IQ question today and I may show myself up for being unintelligent, but is this the correct wording or has the intelligence test got a spelling error?

"What day was proclaimed an European Day of Languages by the Council of Europe?"

Should "an" be "a"? Awaiting to be rudely corrected!

Of course. Proofreading is for cowards anyway.

Yep, that's me, S&M is literally in my name.
