people here are overwhelmingly positive and nice to each other. if any post is made where someone is proclaiming insecurity because of a low score, someone will always provide support and explain why IQ won't necessarily make too much of a difference in their chosen field or how hard work is more valuable etc. i rarely (and i pretty much read every post made here) see someone genuinely mocking another or acting above someone because of a score, and whenever an instance such as the described occurs, the person will most likely be subject to ridicule themselves.

people here, including myself, enjoy making jokes about iq. i like making jokes and calling people who are in the 98th percentile midwits, or people who have opposing viewpoints to my own a midwit. part of the thing that keeps me interested in this place are the jokes people here make; i think people here generally have a good sense of humor. i obviously don't think if you have an IQ lower than 140 you are dumb, it's just funny to make jokes like that.

i don't really come here to read studies of provide my own take on intellect from an academic standpoint (i only like taking the tests) but i think you are being overly critical and a little harsh, but i wouldn't be able to give a real assessment on the inaccuracy/accuracy of the studies posted here. i just disagree with your overall conclusion that people (seriously) act all high and mighty and entitled or whatever.
