what is int 3 and wis 18 cleric like?
Here's where thestats system breaks down; the two characteristics need to be linked with a minimum difference between the two.
I'd go so far as to say that INT would always have to exceed WIS; with WIS being a function of XP and INT.
Wisdom is a thing that intelligent people gain with time and experience; until it all starts to decline in later life.

If wisdom is the best of all possible synonymns, then it must have the best of all possible effects.

Is it possible that it has no negative effects?

There is no such thing as a best possible synonym unless you say what "wisdom" is synonymous with.
The rest of what you say is thus meaningless.

No, I'm looking at a tard like you and Jaded, just that Jaded is a bit more intelligent as he can actually pose a question and actually answer some questions, which you can't!

Wisdom is how one uses what he possesses. It is basically about the intent.

Intelligence is how much one can know/gather. Knowlege is how huch one has been learned/gathered so far. Wisdom is how one uses his intelligence and acquired knowledge ( or whatever he has in his possession ).

Thus, it is not necessary that a very intelligent and knowledgeable person must be very wise by default. Hackers are generally more intelligent and knowledgeable that original programmers, but they are not wise because they fault intent-wise and misuse their qualities. An ordinary guard is more wise than a very intelligent hacker.

Why would I have to prove it to you? It's evident he is.
