Average intelligence on message boards.

[Tmall]

I've been doing the motorcycle message board thing for about ten years now. And in that time I've been pretty lucky. Most of the forums I use have fairly intelligent to absolutely brilliant people with the occasional idiot thrown in the mix who either becomes a troll or disappears.

I didn't realize how lucky I had been until I bought my dirt bike and started browsing/posting on dirt forums.

Good lord! The average intelligence is in the negatives.

I wish I could narrow it down to one or two things to show you, but it's so bad it hurts my head to read most of the threads.

You should see the 2 stroke vs 4 stroke debates. They make you want to claw our your eyes and smash your fingers with a hammer so you can't access a computer ever again.


In closing, thank you for not being a bunch of idiots. Their average user makes our dumbest user look like a nuclear physicist...
