WoW got good post-cata, there never was ‘‘adventuring’’ or ‘‘exploring the world’’ after the initial playthrough, or any other argument vanilla-enthusiasts pray like the bible. The vanilla world was a mess held together by pointless quests, mundane short-stories and autoattacking+1 mechanic bosses for endgame.
Cata fixed all of that, raiding became engaging and not only: ‘‘max 5 reps and pay 5000g for BoEs and consumables’’, the world and quests were changed into real storylines. Obvious vanilla BS like windfury oneshots, engineering trinket trickery, etc. were rightfully taken out.
There will be WotLK era servers, I’d be surprised if they are not a thing. Then you can play with all the other 100 people that want to forever live in a distant, dark past.
Do you even know what the Dunning-Kruger effect really means? You remind me of the people who heard the term Ad-hominem, then use it all the time while actually not even really understanding what it means.
The Dunning-Kruger effect has to do with people with little to no experience who think they are experts. For example, all the Covid conspiracy clowns on social media who think they’re experts in virology. The post you replied to has nothing to do with the Dunning-Kruger effect.
Yes i do. People that think they are more intelligent than they actually are. Usualy a reference to dumb people thinking they are intelligent. Tested mostly on how people rate their own abilities to do things. But have very much to do with IQ.
Not per se. There are people who have an high IQ, who think they’re experts on subjects that they’re unqualified for/ inexperienced in. The Covid period has had many people with a medical education and high IQ who were self proclaimed experts in fields they were unqualified in. That is the Dunning-Kruger effect. For example, family doctors or some heart surgeon who think they knew more about virology than virologists.
" The Dunning–Kruger effect is a cognitive bias whereby people with low ability, expertise, or experience regarding a certain type of task or area of knowledge tend to overestimate their ability or knowledge. Some researchers also include in their definition the opposite effect for high performers: their tendency to underestimate their skills."
" Dunning-Kruger effect , in psychology, a cognitivebias whereby people with limited knowledge or competence in a given intellectual or social domain greatly overestimate their own knowledge or competence in that domain relative to objective criteria or to the performance of their peers or of people in general."
You’re literally a great example of the Dunning-Kruger effect, congratulations.
No, the test was about how unskilled vs skilled people viewed their own competence. People who were unskilled overestimated themselves. Their paper was called “Unskilled and Unaware of It: How Difficulties in Recognizing One’s Own Incompetence Lead to Inflated Self-Assessments”. It was not about IQ. People with a high IQ can still suffer from the Dunning-Kruger effect.
