About what Jeff posted earlier, I agree that MacWiggy needed to be taught a lesson, but weren't you bringing yourself a bit down to his level by insulting things like MySpace and calling him a child? I mean, I use MySpace and I know a lot of other people who aren't teenagers that use MySpace. By all means, insult him because he insulted you, but don't go insulting other people while doing so. I'm offended by the fact you think someone has to be childish because they use MySpace. Is it not internet cool or something (I'm using "internet cool" in a sarcastic manner)? Has the fact it has become popular turned it into the realm of idiots?
I was in favour of you hitting back at MacWiggy for being disrespectful, but I feel you used a few generalisations that I found offensive.
And on another note, IQ cannot increase or decrease. Your IQ remains constant all your life, contrary to what many people believe.

flash is bad, except for when you're doing media. e.g. youtube, games.
Myspace uses flash, yes, but that's not a point for flash. Maybe a step backward. Just because it's popular doesn't mean it's good. Or sensible. Also, they take time and money to create, which I don't think staffshock has.

My post was largely meant for entertainment purposes. You don't get an opportunity to rant like that every day. MacWiggy had been bugging me for over a week with virtually ever single on of his posts, so when he finally called me a moron, that was my cue.Renegade_Turner wrote:About what Jeff posted earlier, I agree that MacWiggy needed to be taught a lesson, but weren't you bringing yourself a bit down to his level by insulting things like MySpace and calling him a child?

Anyways... First of all, your IQ certainly does increase and decrease. Just by definition, it's a number that is based on certain aptitude tests divided by your age, so of course it is going to fluctuate both as you become "smarter" and as you age. It can also decrease after reading certain posts on internet forums.
Secondly, I never said everyone with a MySpace is an annoying little kid. I just said that many of them are. And that is a fact. However, clearly there are some older people using it too, Gramps.
MySpace is or is not "internet cool" depending on who you ask. It's one of the most popular things on the internet, so a lot of people do like it. Just remember that AOL, Xanga, et al. used to be considered <3 <3 <3 (((( .oO*sUpeR*Oo. cOoL )))) <3 <3 <3 by the same people and they're just moving to the next big thing in internet retardation. If you like using it, don't let me stop you.

I took an IQ test and I got around 120. It was one of those internet ones, though (Tickle or something), so I'm unsure of the accuracy of such a test. I was pretty sure IQ was your mental potential as opposed to your intelligence. Anyway, is 120 good or bad? Somebody told me it just slightly above average.
And I wish you'd all stop calling me Gramps, but I suppose I brought it upon myself when I asked Jeff to give me a title.
