Also I'm pretty sure the average IQ decreased below 100 some time ago.

Unfortunately I cannot verify it.

[Yanlin]

The average IQ is 90 now.

[ToonyMan]

The average IQ has to be 100, that's how it works.

[MrWiggles]

Um, if anything IQ averages are raising on the average of ten years.

And by definition of an IQ test, the average is always 100.

[ToonyMan]

Every year there is more history to learn.  Yep.

[Okenido]

History is ridiculously easy.

Read the Constitution.
Amendment 1: freedom of speech.

A video game is considered a representation of a developer's right to speech, and this is interesting, should really only be barred from children if considered obscene.

[MrWiggles]

Obesinity(sp) laws are sorta flimsy though.

Utah had a law on the books that forbid swearing in front of women and children. It was appealed and the law thrown out.

So I'm not to sure how well, if and when those laws challenge they will hold up.

Don't get me wrong, children shouldn't be playing for Mature rated games. However, its ultimately up the parents.

However this issue is sorta complicated.

Well the problem with IQ tests is that they are based off of cultural values.

Case and Point: Aristotle's Projected IQ is in the 400s (perhaps higher)

"Read the Constitution.
Amendment 1: freedom of speech"

The Freedom of speach has several limitations and responsibilities. Honestly I think we are all intelligent, and moral, enough to avoid just saying "Freedom of Speach".

In fact there are several laws specifically set out to protect children from obscenities.

So I'm not to sure how well, if and when those laws challenge they will hold up

Well what carding people is supposed to mean is that no child can buy an innappropriate videogame without an Adults active permission so that the Adult can become more active in knowing what the child is doing.

UNFORTUNATELY I have a lot of doubts that the parents this is really geared for would really bother Parenting their children anyhow. I am sure the same parents are still buying their children Grand Theft Auto Porno edition and just find this law to be bothersom.

[ToonyMan]

I know some screwed up parents.  It makes me see the kids then I'm sad.

[Tormy]

100 I.Q. means you're "normal" and are the majority.  Everything else is just awesome.

Ok, I guess I must have ~100 IQ in that case, because I am not a professor to be honest...

[ToonyMan]

Professors are awesome.  Dey do thet thing were thar is awwesome.

[Okenido]

Personally I have 110 I.Q.

[ToonyMan]

I don't like to label myself so I'm not going to say.


Why did I post this then?  I don't know.

[MrWiggles]

Myself, 114 IQ.
