    There's never really been any challenges.

    I self-type as INTp, but in many IRL circumstances I imagine I may come across as INFp, ISFp or ESFj. In the online socionics community I come across as INTj or ISTp to some people.

    I've had two challenges. LSI and ESE.

    As far as I know, SEE is the only type people here seem to think I may be if not IEE.

    I get a lot of INTp, which would be the benefactor to INFj.

    ENTp, INFj, and INFp have been suggested. It's been a while though.

    I go for a beer. Tests are written/created by people, who, in all sincerity, MAY have or ARE wrong even about their own "type", providing, this theory is something more than a theory and not just a load of crap.

    Response 1: take it from someone with experience that it really isn't that amazing. It gets old fast, there are only so many 'arguments' to encounter

    Response 2: it's that sort of giddy, pee-my-pants-because-gossip/typing-people-is-so-juicy-and-fun attitude that encourages superfluous typing debates, and ultimately erodes the quality of discussion in the forum.

    I meant to pick comparative, but I accidentally picked look-a-like.

    IEE and ESE are my most common alt typings. Pinnochio tosses an ILI/LSI into the mix while thehotelambush and chameleon chime in with EIE.

    I don't talk to people IRL about socionics because that's just nerdy and people online cannot accurately type you. Online it's only ever been ISTJ and ESTP, which are laughable.

    I used to like people challenging my type, back when I was looking for a lot of information. Right now I still have uncertainty, but its about inner things, nothing anyone here would notice. People still challenge my type, I've gotten every possible type suggestion except for Fe egos and EJs. The main ones who seem to think I'm ILI are all the other ILIs, except maybe Warlord. Ni dominant and Fe PoLR has always been pretty deep seated into my own type impression.

    I act like Picard, when somebody comes up to me and questions my type.
    Don't even matter if its Vader himself.

    I find that if someone challenges my type, there is usually some sort of inconsistency, so I find that the types are often different (because, in these cases, the person often does not have a good understanding of socionics). However, if there was a type that I think would make sense as an alternative, I would think either EII or ILE, because of my subtype.

    I've tended to be skeptical of Fe-PoLR with you. I've thought that LII would be a better fit, but idk.

    few people challenged my self-typing and I guess the only things anyone who's not stoned or mentally disturbed could think about would be my Look-alike, my Comparative, my Beneficiary, and my Activity.

    Other than LII, most common is EII (look-a-alike), followed by SEI (activity), then ILE (mirror) and ILI (quasi-ID)

    There's a camp of people who type me IEE, another camp who type me ESE, one person suggested SEE once upon a time but has since conceded that alpha SF is "perfect", and a few other oddball typings that dont particularly resonate for one reason or another.

    IRL people who know of Socionics type me ILI.
    On here it's been mostly IEI.
