Is it just me, or do the users of GB seem far more intelligent than the usual poster on any other site? People are talking in coherent sentences! Unfortunately, this surely won't last. But wouldn't it be wonderful if it stayed this way... forever?
Intelligence? Surely you jest!
Here's hoping! I'm just dreading tomorrow when I wake up and all the 10 year olds have devastated the forum with their incorrect grammar and 133T talk.

My fear exactly.
Yeah, I don't know easily one can gauge intelligence within the first day of the site being available to post upon. Unless we're treating the measure of performance on some arbitrary and capricious grading system that's vague and efficient like, say, the American public school system that deserves the low standards it sets for itself. I know we're all insecure about how smart we are, but let's give it a couple more hours not fail our own tests before we take them, shall we?

I'm on a web forum right? About games? Sadly I have the feeling that this will eventually deteriorate.
"
You ever been to /v/? It has some surprisingly intelligent posts in between all the stupidity."
Yes, you are absolutely right.
Luchadeer and podcasts about soda just appeal to a smarter base of people.

I really can't believe what I'm seeing so far. Aside from a few whiners and chronic moronics I'm digging this community.
Those, er, less adept at the English language will come soon enough. It's only day one at Giant Bomb.
At a site I moderate, GamerzPlanet.net, there was a fairly regular influx of intelligent or relatively intelligent people. However, as the site grew more and more popular (1,000,000+ posts), more spammers, advertisers, and idiots in general started coming in. I ban about one person, hand out numerous infractions, and close several threads a day. Of course, there are still intelligent people at GzP, but they sort of get lost in the crowd of minges.
Idk, I've seen a lot of stupid topics being created and useless two word posts happening. Hopefully all these "What's your favourite game character?" topics will die down soon, because they're just not interesting. Otherwise, there seem to be quite a few intelligent beings on these forums =)
"No religion or girl help topics yet, so far so good!Totally. XD We should time how long it took from the site launch to when the first comes.
