Interesting state IQ and voting result - Page 7

If I could please add my $.02.

Yes they were ridiculous hurtfull words.

Since the Subject seems to have turned out to be about me here I'm going ot post my opinion on how the rest of the convo turned out.

I think Pyro was right in doing something about it. I don't think it was meant to stir shit up, I think it was meant to be hey.. look they're talking shit while you're not around. The Freedom of Speech route, leads both ways. I'm the one on the ass end of this one and while I'd rather I never heard anyone been as much of a boon as that, I'm glad I know because at least I know who on here is an ass/not. No one should be slapping Pyro on the wrist for this. It's not his faut that things were said, unless I'm missing part of this convo.

If this hadn't been said it just would have came back up later to bite us in the ass anyways.. better sooner than later.

If a Moderator is around, could you please lock the thread so we can all move on with our lives..

Thanks. beer:

Nice try. Even if included, Gardner's multiple intelligences theory doesn't
invalidate the concept of IQ or the measure of g, the general factor. Not
that I care about referring to motor skills as being a part of intelligence...

[sarcasm]
Still, after 150 years of scientific research and data, we're still not convinced
that intelligence can be quantified![/sarcasm]

Oh well... I guess it's part of the PC agenda: we're all equal! Now that we're
all the same height, weight and color, shouldn't we all be as retarded ? Yay!

Well, you haven't been here very long so you don't know Pyro or the way things work around here.......There is no way Pyro would have posted that to let you know what's being said about you in IRC for your benefit. He posted it to cause controversy between the people in IRC and the rest of the forum users, in this case, you and Nyck.
He does this because he isn't accepted very well in the IRC channel because he is usually a shithead.

People just aren't that nice around here to do things like that. I'm afraid Pyro was just being a regular shithead....He fucked up, realised it, and tried to cover it up as a good deed, as Eight Ace just posted earlier....

I still think it was pretty shitty thing to do. Now now, lets not try and take the heat off yourselves by blaiming pyro too.

I'm really the only one blaming him here, and I never said anything in the channel towards either nyck or sweetj - I'm sticking up for the other guys because I know what goes on in there and how people can manipulate what is said in there by cutting and pasting portions of text and noth the whole thing, etc....
