No Sociopath here. instead why dont you give me a better reason why you are a Sociopath and how you were diagnosed Oh im sorry Mr Cocky did the posting of your joke of a killboard from supposedly such an intelligent and well schooled individual blindside you? What could a killboard possibly say about relative intelligence and schooling?
To me it shows alot about intelligence, not necessarily schooling. But to hear him talk he's IVY league baby. |

Can't help but wonder if this thread is part of some sort of research that the OP is conducting..
If so, he has caught a decent amount of data in his net, though I'm not entirely sure how useful it may be.
Or, there could be an altruistic angle.
Anyway, back to the popcorn |

To be perfectly honest, psychologists dont know anything about why and how people behave that you couldnt guess for yourself. Its not exactly complex. There's absolutely nothing that you cant guess a decent answer to yourself. Backing it up by watching 50 people do it doesnt make it more impressive...

Only response this thread needs,
This game is played by humans.
Greed/Power/Revenge/Money are the driving force of human beings, regardless of this game or life.
Anticipating these human traits help immensely, both in the real world or video games.
As for out of game, my mentality is for me to know and others to assume.
But the human element is the reason I play this game, no greater game than hunting humans err human persona's. |

It's a little known fact but hominids have hands to pick up all the money. You see money actually grew on trees back in the day and our ancestors would pick that up asap. We drove them to extinction from picking up all the money and that is why it doesn't grow on trees anymore. |

Actually, it's reproduction that drives us, I think. Sex. All else is a means to get sex, or a substitute thereof.
And since many of us aren't getting laid whilst we play, we can be a downright cranky bunch.

Actually according to Maslow's hierarchy of needs the first level of the pyramid is Physiological needs Air, water, and food are metabolic requirements for survival in all animals, including humans. Clothing and shelter provide necessary protection from the elements. The intensity of the human sexual instinct is shaped more by sexual competition than maintaining a birth rate adequate to survival of the species. |

I'm curious how some people justify their own duality in the game and on the forums. For example, those who want to opt out of combat PVP so that they can freely engage in market PVP, which relies on the rest of the community not being able to opt out of the market. Or those who say that "real Eve play is in _______" and insist everyone should be playing the game their way, but when others suggest changes they don't like their response is "LET ME PLAY EVE MY WAY!" These people seem completely hypocritical and I'd really like to understand how it is they make the two conflicting ideas mesh in a way that doesn't cause their brains to explode. It's time to put an end to CCP's war on piracy. Fight your own battles and stop asking CCP to do it for you. |

bongsmoke wrote:Greed/Power/Revenge/Money are the driving force of human beings, regardless of this game or life. I prefer to phrase it this way: humans are innately selfish. It's in our nature to see to preservation of our genes, and that sometimes involves doing harm or allowing harm to others. Yes we do have altruistic behavior and self-sacrifice, but as social animals sometimes it's surprisingly productive--as genes are concerned--for some of the group to sacrifice for the rest. My point is that truly selfless acts are remarkably rare; most are based on the preservation of social order, which is beneficial to the individual and/or those they have a vested interest in looking after.
The more complex our social order becomes, the more apparent those selfish traits become. It's gone from ensuring that your self/family/group are secure at the expense of others to the mindless acquisition of money/power/whatever at the expense of others. Take that into the virtual world of gaming and you get an environment where people can be completely selfish without an connection or empathy for the person on the other side of the game, knowing that their actions can't do tangible harm.
Note: I understand that some people will harm themselves and others over video games. I'm not suggesting that our online actions are consequence-free, I'm simply saying that *I* can't blow up your internet spaceship in such a way that your children can't eat. If my actions result in your buying plex to replace your losses and THAT results in your children not eating, then the problem is your addiction, not my being a mean virtual person. It's the real-life selfishness of the other guy that results in problems, not the actions of anyone in the game. It's time to put an end to CCP's war on piracy. Fight your own battles and stop asking CCP to do it for you. |

You take your internet spaceships way too seriously. How about I give a couple other motivations?
"I don't give a ****, lets do this... 'LEEEEEROYYY JENNNNNKINSSSSS'!" or
"I've had this bloody ship for a year... BANZAAAAAAAAAAAAAI!" or one of my favorite quotes from a corpie:
"so if having fun means losing some ships, set the ******* on FIRE with gasoline and Tibetan monks strapped to them Reaver style"...
I play the game for fun. A lot of people (note: not *all*) who use killboards for e-peen extension therapy aren't fun to fly with. You don't sound like you would be fun to fly with because you present yourself as being too wrapped up in your efficiency %, instead of the fun %. I could be entirely wrong, but that's how you present yourself.

Then, there are those who contend it is the ability for human intelligence to overcome the primal call of the DNA by employing free will and critical thinking. "My genes made me do it," isn't an excuse that will fly in a court of law. Anyone with any sense has already left town. |

Greater knowledge for sure with master/doc.
I've got a question thou: how much related education is to intelligence?
i know some guy with no certificate/diploma who passed a QI test because of it's girl friend and after 5 different tests by different experts, this guy is above 190.
How much inferior this guy can be?
