"Language is the Rubicon that divides man from beast."
I like those. By impact not necessarily force but also what emotional effect it has on me.
Yes, Alpha being the stereotypical 'young' quadra- good intentions is probably the purest thing to them. This is also why sometimes they can cover up being assholes in the guise of just joking.
Deltas and delivery? Hmm. I can see that. Or maybe just...'honesty.'
Gammas and content, hell yeah. Get the content wrong or they think you're missing a fact, Gamma is all over you.
Why honesty? By 'delivery', I meant the method in which they communicate something ... e.g. being tactful etc.Originally Posted by BulletsAndDoves

Not sure I think Gamma should be "delivery;" that sounds more Fe oriented. You could theoretically switch Gamma and Beta, but delivery is pretty weak in general, IMO.
But, for a certainty, back then,
We loved so many, yet hated so much,
We hurt others and were hurt ourselves...
Yet even then, we ran like the wind,
Whilst our laughter echoed,
Under cerulean skies...
Delivery is delta.

I ain't feelin' it!
“Whether we fall by ambition, blood, or lust, like diamonds we are cut with our own dust.”
I'm fine with 'delivery.' I'm sure it's not in any way exclusive to Delta though.
To me, delivery sounded like deliberate non-abrasiveness and sensitivity to another's feelings. I don't think it sounds all that "Fe oriented."

Clarity > delivery
Helpfulness, too, for Delta.
EDIT: Helpfulness as in motive, not necessarily what really happens.

I like those. Clarity & helpfullness.
“Whether we fall by ambition, blood, or lust, like diamonds we are cut with our own dust.”
I have also noticed that Deltas often tend to make an 'impact' without intending to.

Alpha is very good, not so sure about Delta. Also, "impact" to me sounds like a genericthing (and "content"
). How about "effect" for Beta?
