Average Runescapians IQ: 60

[Jehosaphat]

This forum was made for rants, and that's what he was doing.

The Rants section is not about venting. Only people who post a rant believe this. It's about fighting with the original poster tooth-and-nail on every issue he mentions, regardless of one's actual belief on the subject.

 

 

 

Exactly this. Although i do have a problem with people calling others stupid, because they do not follow a convenient for the non-pker method, but the pker gets nothing or less than he would have before. The OPs view, is jaded and follows degrading logic paths.

 

 

 

True, that is not a good reason to call people stupid.

 

I'll admit it, he probably went a bit too far in his rant, with calling other people stupid and all, but he still makes something of a point - he is angry because people choose the method that is beneficial to them (PKers) only, instead of the method beneficial (or partially beneficial anyways) to both.

 

While there is logic in that, there is also logic to the fact that PKers PK not for the loot, but for the fun, risk, and adrenaline rush you get after almost losing 2 mil. (I know what THAT's like....)

Yes i understand that he only wants to make it beneficial for both players not just one, but this is a pking minigame, so it's kind of biased as to where the argument will end up. :?

[The_dmt1234]

i can see why they say no, this guy suggested it to me and im like ok, we are at low hp, he whips out dd tries to kill nme but i got away, it ended ina me chasing hiom for 20 minutes till he lost his square

Because your 130 IQ doesn't seem adequate enough to answer some simple questions, I will repost them. Don't avoid them because you can't answer them. As I said before, swallow your pride, and admit you're wrong.

 

 

 

1. Explain why a PKer doesn't deserve to kill you if you stand in the wild without half-decent gear.

 

2. Explain why you deserve to be catered to.

 

3. Explain why PKers should not PK the way they want, as opposed to the way you "PK".

 

4. Explain how the retribution trick is a win-win method. As I pointed out before, the PKer must waste 25k coins, or 25k worth of items, for a noob to get loot they don't deserve.

 

5. Explain why someone who does not know how or want to PK deserves the rewards a PKer gets. It's like saying level 40s deserve hilt drops from GWD.

 

6. Explain why noobs don't deserve to be killed if they are inexperienced.

 

7. Explain how you could possibly believe people are at BH to "help" complete strangers get loot.

 

8. Explain to me that you actually know what PKing is, and why it is done.

 

9. Lastly, explain what you are doing on a BH world. You say it is so you can watch fights. Why are you risking the 75k needed to get a target then? Obviously, you are only there to waste a PKer's time, being the kind and unselfish person you are.

 

 

 

I expect explicit, and thorough counter-arguments and answers to each and every point. Shouldn't be too hard, seeing as you're "right". Use that 130 IQ. Let's see it. Don't reply to point 2 with "well den y do u tink u shud get kayterred 2????" or to point 6 with "lul de olny n00b hear iz u". They have no relevance with the main point I was trying to prove. Try to counter the arguments, not the person behind them. You seem to have trouble doing that. "lul u de 1 who kalld me st00pid lul". K.

 

 

 

Just thought you might be interested: I'm one of those 14 year olds with 60 IQ. You should have zero difficulty countering my arguments, seeing as you're right. 130 IQ doesn't hurt either.

 

 

 

Off Topic: I liked how you responded to Omali's post (Page 3, Post 16). How about a relevant response the next timea around?

 

 

 

[hide=De_Lille_D]You could always just say that you won't reply to this because you've done your last round of replies. That's fine with me. It's just as good as saying "Sorry for the time I wasted; I admit I'm wrong. I hope you forgive my bloated pride. Cheers." <- If I'm right, your oversized ego will bring you back, guns blazing. That's fine. I love debates; Especially the ones where I'm right. <- 2x the flame!

 

OR!!!...

 

You could ignore my post completely. I'll still take it as a "Man, this little 14 year old with his pathetic 60 IQ is too good for me." <- 3X!@@@

 

Or, you just weren't thinking straight at the time of this rant's making. Hm.

 

Most likely however, you will post an irrelevant, incomplete reply with some insults scattered throughout. That's expected. Just read my post(s) over again sometime. And use that 130 IQ. pl0x man. pl0x.[/hide]

So much for trying to make peace..... :wall:

Thank you for understanding.

 

Yeah, it is a pking minigame, so any arguments anybody makes will probably be biased.

 

The best way this will end :Everybody just says,"I'm not arguing with you anymore, goodbye."

 

The worst way this will end: I don't really know, psychological warfare? Worldwide thermonuclear war? Pie eating contest?

[Omali]

I stopped reading after this, because you obviously don't know what we're talking about ... Why should I read your post, if you didn't read mine?

 

 

 

Because by responding to anything I've said, you would make yourself out to be an even bigger crybaby and what little shred of a veil you have on knowing what you're talking about would be torn away.

 

 

 

So you go with yet another drummed up response of "lolz, i guna ignor ya cuz ur nt wurth my tiem"

 

 

 

Over in New York we call that a copout.

[Trollface]

I prefer to pk for real, unlike you who can't pk :roll:

 

Besides, you can get scammed while doing the retribution trick. Someone pulled out D claws on me once, I managed to run out of the wildy though before he could attack me. I'm not wasting my time to just die for some random person I don't know just so they can get a drop, while I have to waste another hour getting a target. BH is not a place for mindless cash farming, it's a place for PKing and having fun.You, sir, are the sad one, abusing the game system like this. Don't expect any sympathy from anyone who can actually pk.

 

 

 

Hypocrite much? :roll:

 

Ever tried the 26k trick? Don't pull the "holier than thou" on me if you have.

[Trollface]

Last round of replies:

 

 

 

[hide=]

It's just that giving you free stuff takes up too much time.

 

And normal pking doesn't take a lot of time? I think this would be faster than fighting him normally.

 

 

 

people go in PVP for fun, and doing all that isn't very enjoyable

 

Look, if he doesn't want to, he can just keep on pking normally, ...

 

 

 

You're ranting because Runescapers don't want to help you?

 

I'm Ranting because of how do chose to act in that given situation ...

 

 

 

Also, Jagex has been saying this is against the rules anyways.

 

(which is also not allowed by jagex i might add)

 

Show me a link to a newspost/forum thread where Jagex states this.

 

 

 

THEY SHOULD NOT have to ignore you

 

I didn't mean litterally, I meant that they can just act as if they didn't have a target.

 

 

 

you are complaining is because you cannot pk yourself

 

Who says I can't? And even if I did, they wouldn't matter, because I don't want to anyway ... (I've said this at least 5 times)

 

 

 

hope that you get brunokiller as a target one day, because then you will have to fight for your life

 

Does this brunokiller have the ability to attack you in a safezone? Or perhaps he can tele to you directly at any time? I doubt that my target matters here ...

 

 

 

If your IQ was 130+, then you would be able to understand the concept of free-will

 

(-.- It's like talking to a wall ...)

 

I never said they couldn't do what they want, I said they were stupid for doing the thing they chose to do in that given situation. It's like someone who trying to cure his amnesia by hitting himself on the head with a hammer: he can do it if he wants to, but it's stupid.

 

 

 

We should all arrange that to happen

 

Oh and how are you going to lower his combat from 124 f2p to 113 f2p? :wall:

 

 

 

Wannabe Pker goes into wild

 

I stopped reading after this, because you obviously don't know what we're talking about ... Why should I read your post, if you didn't read mine?

 

 

 

Sadly, that's not the case. I don't NEED a lvl 40 for loot;

 

In this case, you do, because if I stay away, you don't get the target kill ... And yes, loot is almost guaranteed with target kills, so the retribution method pays off.

 

 

 

Instead of getting my ~25m, I get 12.5m.

 

If you translate that to Bounty World, that's like getting yourself as target and committing suicide?

 

 

 

I will repost it

 

You didn't get it, did you? I was just summing up the different possible outcomes, if my target doesn't ignore me:

 

* both die: both get loot; food, pots and time wasted

 

* 1 of us dies: killer gets loot -> I will not accept this, even if I'm the one getting loot

 

* neither of us die: this happens when that idiot tries to chase me and time runs out ...

 

 

 

Explain why you are in the wild if all you're doing is watching live fights. After all, you aren't PKing

 

Because I like it! Why won't you get that other people like other stuff than you?

 

 

 

Think it through

 

You obviously didn't get the analogy. In this case you need the level 40 (your target), because without him, you can't kill him (duh). As I said, it's as if you had to have a lvl 40 in your cc to be able to get loot (having in your cc = retri trick).

 

 

 

the best options

 

You don't even know what a choice analysis is, do you? It's about listing any possible outcome/choice and figgering out how to get there ...

 

 

 

you have to swallow your pride, and downsize that ego, and admit you're wrong.

 

You should take your own advice, because I know I'm not wrong ...

 

 

 

You are an average Runescaper too

 

Wow you need to learn about statistics ... When I say the average IQ in Runescape is 60, that means that if you sum up all the IQs and divide them by the amount of players, you get 60. It doesn't mean every player who is about average has an IQ of 60.

 

 

 

Prime example of what I'm talking about.

 

I was referring to the posters on this thread, because of they just don't seem to understand what I'm talking about.

 

 

 

Who else saw this?

 

Bossing around = telling people what to do

 

--> I'm giving them options, they can chose what to do, just as I chose to refuse an outcome where only one of us gets loot.

 

 

 

Very few people on TIF have an IQ of 130+

 

And I'm one of them ...[/hide]

 

 

 

130 IQ means [cabbage]. Ever heard of [developmentally delayed]ed savants? They have very high IQs, yet some of them can't perform basic functions.

 

 

 

Once again, I'm not wasting my time and money just to give noobs free drops they don't deserve.

 

 

 

Conclusion: GET VENGEANCE AND AN AGS, BH is not a cash farm for stupid d clawers and world 18 death dot AFKers.

[Dirkmetal]

There is a sticky for threads about player behavior.

[Cacmypants]

Why the hell would you suggest the retribution trick to a complete random? Hardly anyone wants to collaborate with complete strangers in pvp, they're all aggressive back-stabbing psychopaths who want little more than to gut you and take your loot.

 

 

 

If you want to use retribution organise it with a good friend that way there is trust on both sides.

 

 

 

Oh... and in accordance to IQ, it's all a bunch of bull-crap, you can learn intelligence, this is proved by the sheer fact that it is possible to improve your IQ score in any test. Being "gifted" simply means you can understand certain things alot faster than others, you're not actually mentally superior or have a better brain (well technically you do, but the brain's potential is the same for everyone)

 

 

 

Alot of the time, "smart" people are just encouraged at an early age, they think they have to live up to a certain standard and continue to do so. If someone falls behind or is deprived as a child, they wont have any motivation to academically excel or prove themselves, they just label themselves as "not capable" of such "trival" pursuits.

 

 

 

Not to mention everyone's brain works differently, you can be numerical, literary, visual, analytical, empathetic, strategic, philosophical, spacial, co-ordinated, social etc etc etc. You cannot judge intellect purely based off one, two or even three of these factors.

 

 

 

People don't realise that intelligence transcends logic, reason and patterns.

[The Runar]

Are you an average RuneScape player with 60 IQ yourself, then? (original poster) If you have 100 IQ or higher, then you think you're better than anybody else. AND YOU'RE NOT.

 

 

 

"Wow you need to learn about statistics ... When I say the average IQ in Runescape is 60, that means that if you sum up all the IQs and divide them by the amount of players, you get 60. It doesn't mean every player who is about average has an IQ of 60."

 

 

 

You've calculated that? :shock:

 

 

 

"Very few people on TIF have an IQ of 130+"

 

"And I'm one of them ... "

 

 

 

So? I have 140 IQ. Does that make me better than other TIF'ers? NO. It's how you show it.

 

 

 

"* 1 of us dies: killer gets loot -> I will not accept this, even if I'm the one getting loot"

 

 

 

That's the point, how about reading the manual again?

 

 

 

"And normal pking doesn't take a lot of time? I think this would be faster than fighting him normally."

 

 

 

But it kills the whole point...

[Stonepilot]

My IQ is somewhere around 140. 143 I think. Haven't gotten it checked in a while. Would that affect the average?

 

 

 

 

 

Number 1:

 

You suck for using the Retribution trick. PK for realz so u can become lik all da REAL PKERS. But seriously, to me you're just a RWT'er that doesn't deserve money at all.

 

 

 

Number 2:

 

You're PKing. Of course they're idiots.

 

You're a coward for running around.

 

No one will trust you.

 

 

 

Number 3:

 

Don't blame people for you not being able to kill.

[3rkid]

THIS IS WHY IQ IS SO [bleep]ING STUPID.

 

 

 

Everyone lies about it, people seem to think it's a meter of how intelligent you are, and it makes people feel arrogant and asshat-ish.

I don't completely agree that IQ means nothing, but I do agree that it in no way fully measures intelligence. (A bit ironic since IQ stands for "Intelligence Quotient"...)

 

 

 

And what you said about PKers, is... well..... a bit of a violent way of putting it. :o They're people who enjoy going against other people in a more obvious and physical manner than skilling competition, which mostly consists of checking the high scores every so often. They like a bit more of a physical and strategic fight.

 

 

 

And yes, PKing IS a strategic competition. Just look at pures, semi-pures, mains specifically constructed for PvP, etc.

 

 

 

Anyways, yeah, it's a bad idea to go around asking random people to do the retribution trick with you. D claws anyone?

 

And it is a better idea to do the retribution trick with a trusted friend, seeing as how the people you would be doing it with probably don't want to, as you mentioned.

 

 

 

Also, do you have an issue with PKers or something? Because I wouldn't exactly describe "aggressive back-stabbing psychopaths who want little more than to gut you and take your loot" as an endearing term.

But it kills the whole point...

 

You made a good point, props to you. =D>

 

 

 

And I agree that a higher IQ doesn't make you any better than anyone else, and the same goes for huge muscles, strategic genius, etc. Also, all people ARE NOT created equal, but they ARE created with equal rights. You have just as much right to a job as the homeless guy on the street, you just may have specific advantages toward getting a certain job. (Example: being a naturally talented artist will probably help you better towards getting a job at an art studio than having a great memory.)

 

 

 

True, we can all become better at just about everything, but there is a point where we can't get any better without natural talent or an act of God. Fear also plays a part in the point of no advance.(Example: I can practice speaking all I want, I'm still going to be afraid of getting up in front of people and making a fool of myself.)

 

 

 

I really have nothing more to say about this post, other than good job on making a worthwhile point.

[Cacmypants]

I was just exaggerating for the sake of humor :mrgreen:

 

 

 

Either way, you can't deny that the vast majority of pkers are blood-thirsty maniacs :twisted:

 

 

 

It's mainly a result of frustration in not managing to loot anyone for a while, their actions become much more rash and they forget to analyse situations.

What the hell are you talking about?

 

 

 

So just because YOU WANT TO CHEAT and make quick cash, other people HAVE to support you or else they are stupid? What rubbish.

 

 

 

They're SMART for not cooperating with you to earn quick and underhand cash. Maybe not smart, but HONEST. Honesty is a virtue. It can never be "used wrongly". Intelligence =/= Good. It depends on how you use it. So what if they're stupid? I'd rather befriend a honest, kind, generous but 50 IQ person than a cunning, scheming, greedy 250 IQ person.

 

 

 

Your "130 IQ" means nothing. It depends on how you use it. If you use it to cheat and scam, you deserve ZERO respect from us. Similarly, a 60 IQ person who is polite and honest deserves far more respect than an idiotic cheater like you.

Rubbish. What's your freaking IQ then? 300? 50000? I doubt your IQ is even 60. Don't be stupid and try to act like you're very intelligent or something if you know nothing. You're just making yourself look stupid.

 

 

 

The retribution trick is EXPLOTING a glitch in the system, in other word, CHEATING, or in other words, bug abuse. Please get your freaking definition straight before trying to insult people. Sure, everyone wants quick cash, but I said he used CHEATING methods and UNDERHAND means to get quick cash.

[John Halo Chief]

So, let's get this straight... you want someone you've never seen before to trust you to not kill them before you retribute, when they could probably just kill you? I'm sorry you're so desperate for a drop you have to use that method.

[Harakiri]

One thing I don't understand is why it matters what the IQ of a person is. If we're talking player behavior here the person could have 120 IQ and still behave childish. IQ is a (not very helpful) measure of intelligence, not common sense or how they are likely to act. I have 130+ IQ, that doesn't mean I have common sense (Which I admit I don't have too much of).

 

 

 

So, in order for me to even want to read this thing entirely is if you say something else beyond that average Runescape layers have an IQ of 60, because:

 

 

 

Numero Uno: Jagex has never taken a test of their players IQ and made a little Pie Chart, so there are no facts to back this up.

 

Numero Dos: IQ is a measure of INTELLIGENCE not COMMON SENSE.
