    Default ISTp influx on this forum

    wow theres plenty of ISTps here now. To me it almost seems like more than any other type. Its suprising because this is one of the last places i would have imagined them to come.

    I really come here because my life is sorta in intellectual and action limbo. I'll drift away soon enough :/

    fwiw, the way I see it is like attracts like imo, so it's like a snowballing affect, where the same 'type' of person likes what they see so they hang around and so on etc.

    I'm kinda like LokiV in that respect, where i'm in limbo with stuff.

    If anything it's worth being around to see more of Loki's drawings of my S type face

    I heard that most SLIs are almost 100% sure of their type.

    I *guess* quite a lot of SLIs are registered on the forum but post very little or nothing at all.

    Definitely, although not small enough to see all of it

    Oh no, don't get me wrong, I don't pity myself i'm just saying when the time comes im not the type of person to say "So long, guys!". I kinda just leave.

    And i'm 99.9% sure of my type, based from all the feedback and junk.

    Type-wise ISTp seems to fit.

    "type" wise..just an ordinary guy who's kinda not quite sure what his next move in life should be.

    hmm..so the ISTPs are there, yet not there...just like in real life.

    So how can we get all these mysterious ISTPs to come out and play?

    They need to be in a cross-roads at life, because if an ISTp knows what they're doing and where they're going, they've don't have a need for the internet, except to maybe download songs and mail order lego.

    I wouldn't say a complete lack of understanding. I think there is some credibility to what msq says, at least in terms of that S types tend to be more sure of things in general than the N types.

    Definitely... you kinda need to catch us while we're contemplating on what to do next. Or play with us whatever we're currently playing

    Perhaps you are trying to be controversial. In any affect I am judging on what I have seen, which is essentially what socionics comes down to..aka it cannot really be proved.

    Believe Niffweed. He is the king of Socionics. He knows everything. Don't question him. He know's your type better than you do. Accept everything he says. He is God.

    then you dismiss the legitimacy of socionics? if so, why are you making sweeping generalizations about it like "S types are more certain of their conclusions?"

    if not, then you have said nothing at all.

    No not at all, I think socionics is infact a valid system.

    What makes you say that?

    I already said thats what i've observed.

    And to say again perhaps, in what way am I dismissing the validity of socionics?

    We're all mistyped, according to niffweed.

    There's a lot of that on the forum at the moment
    Posts I wrote in the past contain less nuance.
    If you're in this forum to learn something, be careful. Lots of misplaced toxicity.
