On this site, We often read: "This one is intelligent, this one is stupid or a moron etc." And also "My IQ is higher than yours, yours is lower than mine etc." when, in fact, it is only what we perceive of certain people, as we don´t really know anything about them!
How do we define intelligence, here, in the virtual world?
1. Someone knowledgeable who makes interesting comments on a variety of subjects?
2. Someone who writes correct grammar, spelling etc. and choice of words?
3. Someone witty?
Or.... All of the above mentioned?
A few adjectives: Understanding, Insight, Smartness, Brilliance...
M4_Mischief: all of the above but I will add original thoughts.....
All of the above plus people I like, some people on here have an inflated view of themselves though we can see their one track minds yes you know who mean

Hi Tom.
Yes I know...Maybe it's just a game they're playing?
I cannot quantify intelligence in the virtual world. I don't even try. I just know there is a certain spark that attracts me. Gardiner claimed there are eight different types of intelligence. Who can say there are not as many in the virtual world?
M4_Mischief: no...by putting together a good ol copy and paste job and claiming it as their own.....
I think most people copy and paste at some time, but if it's referenced this is acceptabled even in our most hallowed universities, why should CS be any different???
im talking about those who don't reference...I have seen it done...comments copied and pasted into regular conversation like it was the persons who responded....and I mean intentionally not just someone who forgets to put a reference.....

Interesting...I'd like to know which the 8 types are?
In the virtual world ...that's another story...hiding behind a screen and an avatar we've created We can play any role we want?
