I would propose a feature be added that would allow a landower to Deny access based on IQ level of the player. A short IQ test should be added to the signup screen to calculate the person's IQ and have that value stored in their profile. then on the "About Land" > "Ban" tab you could specify either to allow or deny people under a certain IQ level. (Some people may only want intelligent people around, and some may not wany anyone smarter than themselves present.)
FAIRNESS: I believe this option is FAIR and applies equally to EVERYONE regardless of country of origin or payment ability.
REASONING: 1) Having to associate with people of differing IQ levels can produce extreme feelings of irritation, and can often lead to derisive comments, rolling of the eyes, and in extreme cases, heavy sarcasm. 2) I'm a bastard like that.
Feature Proposal to follow.

Doesn't keep out the kids you know. I tested in at 142 back before my memory starts. Of course...that is only about 2 weeks... ;P (Serious: I did test at 142 as a young child)

Seems to me that this is already in place for many locations. I have seen several locations set to group only, and presumably entrance to the group was well controlled  As easy as it is to do currently, I can't help but think that this feature being implemented would only benefit those not intelligent enough to use the means already at their disposal.  <grin/>

Heh. (Of course, "IQ" is a dubious and socially-normative sort of pseudo-scientific statistic, but I appreciate the satire.)

You know, thank you for the verbosity but I probably would have understood all of that from just "Heh."
