Below average programmers are not the type to be involved in an online programming community like Code Project. I would say that my years here, reading and contributing, have helped me become a better than average developer.

Either you are goo, or great - Which makes you above average.
Or you are not to good, or even suck (= really really bad) - That is below average.
The Average is calculated as (not to good + really really bad) + (good + great).
I guess the ones who voted average are in deed bad devs with a big self-esteem, or good devs with a low self-esteem.
You know the world is going crazy when the best rapper is a white guy, the best golfer is a black guy, the tallest guy in the NBA is Chinese, the Swiss hold the America's Cup, France is accusing the U.S. of arrogance, Germany doesn't want to go to war, and the three most powerful men in America are named "Bush", "Dick", and "Colon."

I wake up everyday to discover so many new things happening and so many new work going on. So I tell myself, well my knowledge is not enough. Let me first acquire the skill X so that I can put myself in the same horizon as others. 10 Years have gone by quickly. The feeling that I am not good enough and I need improvement drives my craze to learn. However it may effect somebody as one may suffer from loss of confidence.
I will say it in this way, I am above average algorithm developer, average c# programmers, bellow average wpf skills, average java skills, bellow average Android........
Therefore the accurate question should be how confident are you as a developer? Then I can say, I am pretty sure that the project or module I am working on will be finished and on time in any given technology(known or unknown). Rating is based on what you do in a technology and in todays time most of the time you are working on a different technology even before you get time to rate yourself.

Don't knowing things does not make you a bad developer - Not trying to figure out things and being close-minded about learning something new makes you a bad dev!

Yes you are right. But I think most of the devs try to know things and solve a problem. But when I look at some of the developers, man they are efficient in JSON, they are good in WPF, they write mobile Apps, They do cloud things. Which means they are doing it at a rate much better than me. Sometimes I feel jealous of these guys and try to cope up with it. Look, I haven't yet written a HTML5/ Cloud article in CP. But when I will be in a position to be on par with these fellow devs, may be things will change.
Also I have not realized how fast the time went. Journey of being referred as kid to referring few as Kid.  Too fast.
To your point I also want to add, if the survey was on eagerness or curiosity to learn and figure out things, I would have voted myself well above being motivated. That would be interesting survey isn't it? I can then know how many others feels just as restless as me to try learn things.

but I think, when I would see myself above average, I had to vote well above average, as above average is the average here. 
My option isn't available: Simply the best.

In my department I am one of the best (told by my boss and customers).
So I would say above average in what I constantly do...
but in the rest... Average or below average.
On the other hand... I think that the important point is not how good are you in one technology, but how fast do you learn new things and adapt you knowledge to resolve the problems you become on the fly.
Nothing is how it firstly seems and the good developers must be able to restructure concepts fast in order to get to the goal as much efficiently as possible.
I am not sure but I think this an Einstein's quote: "I don't learn what I can find in my bag/pocket"

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

 depends on how you define average

This is a tricky question for me...
It depends on the day really... Some days when everything works out, I feel good. Other days it goes wrong and I feel like the lowest guy ever.
I said average, but it might be a bit of an overstatement, as I don't even really went to college yet ( life is being a bit of a b*tch right now, Portugal isn't doin' much better either )
It's not like I'm dumb or anything, I get a project proposal I design the DB, then code the application. But I feel like I'm missing so much "information" that it hinders me from getting into the next level.
I remember taking a few lessons from Stanford University Online Courses, about database and they started with algebra. I remember loving it, the way the logic was laid out, the way it got more challenging each day. Unfortunatly I stopped having the time for it, but it kind of made the feeling that I was missing something even worse.
What about you guys? How many of went to take a degree, and how many think that the information you got there is vital for what your job is right now?

I learnt nothing at university that has been of any use in a job.

Not even as a basis for something else?

Now I don't feel that bad that I didn't go to university.
