Poll Are Batman fans generally more intelligent? (32 votes)

Yes, they're generally more intelligent than average 25%
No, in fact they've below average intellect 34%
No difference from the average fanbase 41%

Well?

Intelligence from what you observed on forums so far - their debating and reasoning feats.

Personally I feel Batman fans are mature, reasonable, and amongst the more competent debaters so far, compared to Superman's fanbase.

What about you?

This is one of the worst ideas I've ever seen.

Sorry, I didn't see any poll on the forums that discusses about the debating competency of the different fanbases.

I thought this would be something good to talk about.

@donatellorawks: why do you think the different fanbases are on a different debating/intellectual level.

Depends on how much prep they're allowed.

I'm sorry, this poll is more of asking about the different debating competencies amongst the fanbases.

I had been lurking around forums and noticed that different fanbases have different ways of arguing their ideas about their characters.

Batman, being the deepest and most complex character, often have fans arguing about his ideals, such as whether he's right to kill/not kill, how he thinks up of plans to overcome opponents of higher level than he is, etc etc

Meanwhile, for fanbases of DBZ, they are often comparing power levels and using mathematics to derive a character's destructive capability.

Flash's fanbase? All they say is speed blitz.

This is why I thought DBZ and Batman's fanbase are often more intelligent.

Its easy to debate for a character who has done so many PIS feats.

@deathpoolthet1000: Please...

Its more of a discussion on the different debate competencies of the different fanbases.

Generally, I don't see much intelligent discussion for the fanbases of Flash and Superman... especially for Flash, who kept invoking "speedblitz, speedblitz, speedforce" without giving a reason how or why. At least Superman has greater personality which leads to discussing the personality differences between him and Batman.

While for Batman and DBZ's fanbase, they appeared to give more detailed and more concrete arguments for different debates, be it battles or on the different characterizations and personalities in the stories.

Building narratives isnt evidence or facts.

Batman fans that build narratives, build them under logical fallacies.

Nothing good came from this threads.

Not just about battles but discussion of the character too.

Also, building narratives hints of a creative mind. Not all written narratives are logical fallacies.

No and you now have the honour of writing the dumbest thing I've ever read on comicvine, which is a mighty feat indeed.

If that is all you see, then you need to stop just viewing the battle boards for Flash.

And there is no fanbase that's any more or less intelligent than another.

It's always down to the individual. I've seen idiotic fans of all types of fanbases and people can be in more than one fanbase. Some people like Superman and Batman.

How does liking an extremely bland fictional character make your more intelligent?

Now Hank Pym fans, on the other hand are easily, some of the most attractive, smart, cunning, amazing, spectacular people to walk this earth.
