Hey guys, been a while i've started a thread here. I'm almost nervous. BUT! i've found something interesting. Ridley found an alignment test (and, thanks to him, i discovered i'm more loyal-good than i thought.), while i found a socio test! Here you guys, take it. I was about to take it too, but wanted to share it first. I'll post my results soon. http://www.sociotype.com/tests/ I wanted to add a poll to the thread, but there's too many results for the poll answers. (16 different results, 10 different poll asnwers.)
Oh. My bad. But here's my result. http://www.sociotype.com/tests/result/est/43318 This test has read me. http://www.sociotype.com/socionics/types/IEE-ENFp/ It corresponds to me in everyway. I'm /almost/ scared.
Oh, one of these. This one gave me ISTP. Another one I took some time ago gave me ISTJ. "SLIs' are minimally aware of others' emotional responses and tend to speak in straightforward language. Sometimes they can appear aggressive and respond critically on issues in which they hold strong opinions. This can lead to the perception of SLIs as hostile and, on occasion, arrogant or uncompromising." <_< Yeah... That's gotten me a few times. Over sensitive pansies. "Some SLIs do not consciously acknowledge the importance of their own emotions, and many try not to allow their emotional states to influence their decisions or pragmatic focuses." Emotions are those silly voices that distract you which causes you to do something really stupid, like think you've fallen in love or something else equally outrageous. "SLIs are not usually extensively focused on power politics or hierarchies, exercising control over others, or outwardly flaunting their status or strength." Because that involves exerting way too much force with little to no payoff. It is far easier to allow things to run as they are, so long their effects are minimal to myself.
So far, the results are interesting. I thought there would've been more extrovert than introverted people to answer first. @Ridley / @Robin Your results were expected. ''Introverted intuition in ILIs is predominantly characterized by well developed imaginative abilities and mental wandering'' But, the differences between INTP, INTJ and all it's variables only the imagination point in common, and their introverted personnality. Well, i look forward to compile all the data if a good number of people were to take the test.
Ooh, I've done some of these before, and I think I got.... INTP last time. Did it in school. Turns out I was the most introverted person in class. I Compared with some friends, too, but couldn't find anyone as Introvert as me. Bleck. xP
Your Sociotype: SEI-1Fe (ISFp) Using introverted sensing as her base function and extroverted intuition as her creative, the SEI excels at creatively applying her introverted sensing to improve the mood of those around her. As with the ESE, the SEI is in tune with people's emotional states and seeks to mitigate conflict and encourage a harmonious atmosphere. The SEI's creativity is practically unlimited, and this skill is used in a number of pursuits including graphic design, music, and culinary arts, to name a few. Generally speaking, this creativity is channeled towards uses that will have a positive impact on at least one person's emotional state; as such, the SEI would prefer not to channel her creativity towards more impersonal endeavors. At her best, the SEI applies sensori stimuli (in the form of art, good food, etc.) to make herself and those around her comfortable and content; at her worst, the SEI can become highly emotional, and these emotions can become very volatile--changing quickly from happiness to sadness to anger within minutes. Furthermore, these volatile and strong emotional states will be shared freely with those around her--to either their pleasure or detriment. -- I'd say that's pretty much right on the head. That would make me Fluttershy on this. I'm also apparently the same personality type as Johnny Depp, so that's cool.
I'm surprised, Yami. I thought you would've been an extroverted type, maybe LSE-something. But thanks. You proved me i could be wrong sometimes.
Oh no no. xD I am EXTREMELY introverted. Often times just thinking about interacting with people I don't know scares me and can make me short of breath.
You, Yami, is a trickster. How come you can be so social on a website and be afraid of having a real life discussion? Go take drama classes. Get a job in wich you're constantly in contact with the public. I know you have what it takes.
Because a website is on a computer. I can be at my ease, think about what I want to say and how I want to say it, and give what I feel to be the most appropriate response. In real life, people stare at you during conversations. You have no time to think about what you want to say, and when I try to think about it, all I can think of is how long the silence stretches on and how awkward the whole thing feels, leading me to not even think about what to say at all. Almost everything I say in real life conversations is short, panicked, and rushed mumbling. With a computer as a buffer, I can be eloquent and thoughtful with my words.
Brief Description of the ESE Using extroverted feeling as her base function and introverted sensing as her creative, the ESE is adept at understanding people's emotional needs, and she often responds to these needs through comforting words and actions. Driven by a desire for harmony and perfection in her life, the ESE uses her emotional acuity to strengthen and solidify the relationships with the people she cares about in her life. The ESE enjoys bringing people together for social interaction and improving their moods through the use of games, laughter, music, and good food. Perhaps better than any other type (exept for maybe the SEI), the ESE understands the effect that this sensory stimuli can have on a person's emotional state. At her best, the ESE is a center of vibrant social interaction where the goal is harmony and happiness for all the group participants; at her worst, the ESE's desire to help others may cause her to neglect her own needs. Additionally, the ESE's penchant for empathy can often cause her undue strain when she bears the emotional pain that others are feeling.

iSTP, as expected. ISTPs have an adventuresome spirit. They are attracted to motorcycles, airplanes, sky diving, surfing, etc. They thrive on action, and are usually fearless. ISTPs are fiercely independent, needing to have the space to make their own decisions about their next step. They do not believe in or follow rules and regulations, as this would prohibit their ability to "do their own thing". Their sense of adventure and desire for constant action makes ISTPs prone to becoming bored rather quickly. ISTPs are loyal to their causes and beliefs, and are firm believers that people should be treated with equity and fairness. Although they do not respect the rules of the "System", they follow their own rules and guidelines for behavior faithfully. They will not take part in something which violates their personal laws. ISTPs are extremely loyal and faithful to their "brothers". ISTPs like and need to spend time alone, because this is when they can sort things out in their minds most clearly. They absorb large quantities of impersonal facts from the external world, and sort through those facts, making judgments, when they are alone. Pretty much exactly.
Ah, finally another extroverted! Yami, take exemple on Eluuna. I don't even think before speaking, neither when i type. I barely correct myself, in fact. I fear that the internet has brought a new era of introverted people. It's a shame, for the human contact gets rare and it's quality often reduced by our new technology. Today, you can't have a conversation without mentionning Facebook, Being on facebook at the same time, and/or replying to your text messages. 60 years ago, everyone went to the church, for it was one of the only socializing spots. They walked around town to meet people. They DID something. In today's era, when you bump against someone accidentally, it takes everything to simply mumble an excuse. 60 years ago, you bumped into someone and you two went to take a coffee and get acquainted. Is it only me, but i would've wanted to live in that era, and Everypony.com would've been a coffee shop or something? That could've been pretty awesome. And, in those years, there wasn't sociology tests, for the only mentality was the one you were taught. Today, well, i'll skip that part of my speech. All of this to say, we should socialize more! Now Yami, find people in this forum near your area and meet them. It's your homework, given by your new social teacher.
You act as if I'm interested in socializing. I'm not. I have a few good friends and that's good enough for me. Besides, I go to brony meetups and conventions, which is enough socializing for me. Knowing too many people would just be cumbersome and tiring. Absolute #1 rule when it comes to dealing with introverts: do NOT try and make them be extraverts. I dunno, maybe you'd have trouble understanding that, being an extravert yourself, but it's just a difference in personality.
Introverts don't socialize because it is extremely draining of personal energy. It's not like we don't like socializing, it's the fact that it takes much more energy and time for us to get used to it than extroverts. Think of it like any sport. Do it too often and your legs will get tired. To put it simply, Introverts don't have very good legs when it comes to socializing, so they subject themselves to it less. At least in most cases that I'm aware of. Some are just shut ins and other just don't like people.
There, you're extroveted enough. You're having your own opinion and having real life friends. That's all it was about. And making introverted people extrovert is against their nature: of course it's not supposed to work. But after your other post, i thought you were a reclusive person who lived on a high mountain with Wi-fi, and barely exited his sanctuary. Good to know i can be wrong sometimes. @Saikyo You and i mean both, bro! I was about to edit this post with a metaphor of some kind like you just did. (Do you live by the brocode?)
