It's fantasy, part of the reason to RP is to not be yourself, maybe a person is stupid, and they realize that but have learning disabilities and desperately want to be a genius, so RPing one is their fantasy or escape. That's what RP is about, what it's always been about, being something your not. Escaping into a fantasy.
I think judging someone for not being as smart as they want their character to be is a bit of a sour disposition and my need to be rethought by the person judging.
If you think they're not up to snuff, you can always offer assistance OOC, etc etc.Â
If the person is a jerk about it, judge away, but if they're not and they just want to play their fantasy.. I think we as a community should help said person, rather than shun them.

Playing some character, maybe on Balmung, maybe not.
