Hawks Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Since we haven't had one of these in about two years by the looks of it, here's the not annual MBTI thread! If you haven't taken it recently, here's a couple of ones that are good and succinct: DiscordiaMBTI/HumanmetricsMBTI/MyPersonalityMBTI (need to sign up) If you want to know more about your type Google it or something, Wikipedia has a pretty good collection of descriptions and it ties them into the Kearly [or whatever] big five types. Anyway, I've taken it like four times in the past day or so and pretty regularly get ISTJ (Inspector) or INTJ (Mastermind). I consider myself more of an INTJ because that was what I got the first time I took it a while ago. I will also add a lovely poll so we can see what personalities make up OT. sig by Soa.....tip.it times.....art & mediadeviantart/flickr/last.fm/steam/twitter/tumblr/youtube Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obfuscator Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 We get these pretty often...I'm usually an INTJ but I'll redo the test now and see if anything different comes up. Got ISFP. Odd...every other time I've been INTJ. I've never used this site before though...

Alg Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 INFP from the first, INFJ from the second. Going with the first, every time I take the second I notice its limitations. I painted some stuff and put it on tumblr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nom Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Got two completely different results from the two non-register tests so I googled some other ones. Got INFJ like I remember. Some of those questions are pretty weird though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giordano Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Ah, I typically ignored these types of threads in the past...what's MBTI? "The cry of the poor is not always just, but if you never hear it you'll never know what justice is." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muggiwhplar Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 The problems with these kinds of tests is they often aren't specific enough or lack context. I may choose one answer for a question within one instance, but choose a different answer in another. A lot of the possible answers you can choose from aren't mutually exclusive either. For example: 23. When one of your friends is upset, do you:(a) offer sympathy(b) offer objective advice© offer a plan of action Can't choose all of the above :\ INTJ is the personality type which best describes me at my core, though.

Dax Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 I'm always either ENTJ or INTJ, depending on the day and depending on the quiz, though I don't have the patience to do one at the moment. Heh. #KERR2016/17/18/19/20/21. #rpgformod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
champion Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 I've probably taken the MBTI at least a dozen times out of curiosity or for psych class. Always get ENTJ which describes me very well. One time I got ESTJ once though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skull Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 I'm pretty sure I got INTP all the times I took it, now these tests just frustrate the shit out of me and I end up stopping about 3 questions in. So let's assume INTP, I know the 'I' is at least correct and the rest of it is probably something like that. I could be INFP though but I really just hate these tests, so who knows for sure?

Assume Nothing Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 I've always been INTJ, which tends to describe me well - always inside own head having full-on debates, emotionally unavailable with the exception of those closest to me, near immunity to personal criticism, to the famed death-glare that we tend to have, etc. I figure this is the one that most exaggerates introvert features too, so a lot of people happen to mistype as this. EDIT - someone asked what MBTI was. MBTI refers to 'Myer Briggs Type Indicator', which has 16 groups you could belong to - based loosely on Carl Jung's work on personality/temperament. The 4character code you're given stands for Intraversion/Extraversion - iNtuition/Sensing - Thinking/Feeling - Perceiving/Judging, focusing on how you internalize the external world and your social preferences (e.g. intraverts feel energized with alone-time, extraverts feel the opposite). I could go into more depth, but would probably end up taking up a large post. Feel free to read 'Please Understand Me: Character and Temperament Types' for more on this.

Donnie Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 INTP here. Seems INTJs are common here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Assume Nothing Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 Explanation - * Plenty of people mistype as INTJs (it's just an exaggerated introvert)* INTJs tend to band around eachother on the internet anyway, with a personality type that makes them a little more MBTI aware than others Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nine naked men Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 i'm a BUTT ha ha (srsly though enfp, the n was at like 1% though. a far cry from my constant intj scores back in high school. i know the tests are kinda rubbish but i'm glad i at least think i've changed) sleep like dead men wake up like dead men Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sprint Posted July 20, 2013 Share Posted July 20, 2013 First one gave me INFP, second one gave me ISTP. Both the types I always flip-flopped between when this thread came up before. Good to know I havent changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randox Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 Had this done at my university. I'd have to figure it was a bit more comprehensive, and I remember being quite strongly INTP. I remember at least one letter was weaker, maybe 30%. I'll have to look for the results, or at least my post about them. Describes me to a T though. I am finding the similarities and differences of the INTP and INTJ types. In particular, the former is compelled to understand, where the latter is ultimately compelled to do. Superficially quite similar, yet ultimately almost the exact opposite. I think one of my best friends growing up was INTJ, which in addition to being quite smart, would probably explain why we got along so well yet argued incessantly. Not only could we follow each others thoughts, but we cared to. I would however probably get along better with an INTP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginger_Warrior Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 I usually type as an INFP, with only a slight preference for P over J; the others are quite strong, especially introversion. Describes me fairly well. I have a few close friends, all of whom I love to bits because we just seem to 'get' each other. I have a sophisticated concept of the 'ideal world', and this manifests itself in strong values I hold; it's these values which usually decide my actions. I'm more interested in the 'greater good' rather than my own personal gain. My sense of humour mixes between surrealism and sarcasm, and while I do enjoy talking to people and really getting to know them, if I'm with lots of people I'll get tired quickly and need time on my own. Romantically, I tend to be attracted towards girls with intelligent, caring, cheerful personalities. | Favourite Game Music | Last.fm | HYT Friend Chat Rules | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think my INT preferences are about 80%+, but my J preference is only 1% or so. I've always been compelled to do both - understand sufficiently, then use said knowledge in an applicable manner (or in other words, to do). It's odd, I've never truly figured out where I stand with that... both remarkably similar by an external observer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
