This is so vague. How do you expect to get consistent responses?
Why can't you talk to me like a sane human being?
o_O Whatever man.
Dee, this just doesn't seem like it is going to produce anything worhtwhile. What are you really trying to guage here?
Posts I wrote in the past contain less nuance.
If you're in this forum to learn something, be careful. Lots of misplaced toxicity.

~a certain mysterious power that may prove terribly fascinating to the extraverted man, for it touches his unconscious.
How? I don't know what the fuck these questions mean!!!!
Ok I won't! But if you want anyone to participate I suggest you clarify!
Which types would be more likely to go on a never-ending quest for Ti -- any Ti whatsoever, no matter how bad it is?
It is easier for the eye of a camel to pass through a rich man than for a needle to enter the kingdom of heaven.
Aye heh. Wth is this. I don't understand the question either. But if I were to follow dee's wish and "just vote" what good would a randomly chosen answer be?

If your sea chart does not match reality, go with reality (Old mariner saying)
Which quadra are you trying to attribute "goodness" to?
To answer your question, no I don't think this is a good method of figuring out one's type.
Dee, which posters here explain things in a manner which you find most useful, enjoyable, or easy to understand? Which ones do you have a difficult time effectively communicating with?
this poll makes no sense.
dee, when you churn out shit like this, no one gives a shit. It's all nonsensical, strung-together visions, intuitions and spontaneous thoughts. It means fuck all to anyone except you. You need to learn to start constructing proper ideas that can be put down in word so as to be expressed to this community. Otherwise, you will get absolutely nowhere in your trying to type yourself.
I understand it (or at least the idea behind it). This is part of the reason I am not confident that dee has a Ti hidden agenda. (Though at this point I still think he's xFxp.)
I don't think dee has a Ti hidden agenda at all. He just throws random musings into the air whenever he feels like it. He doesn't even try to structure.
I didn't really understand the questions. But I vote SF still.

That's why I keep asking which posters he understands or communicates with best, which ones explain things in a way which is easiest for him to understand.
gilly, your problem is that you're too smart. consequently, when you try to dualize, you make too much sense, and drive away your duals in terror. if you want to dualize successfully, you should endeavor to become more stupid, and to make even less sense than you already do.
I'm not sure his interactions here justify a Ti hidden agenda. And I think logical PoLRs can look pretty similar. And just because someone's trying to make sense of a system doesn't mean that the person values Ti.
He does not have a Ti hidden agenda! I've known so many IEIs and I can tell what that looks like ... they actually make sense most of the time b/c they are so avid on gaining all the information out there to "fully understand" a subject and usually do not spew out random shit like this before they have thoroughly gone through many sources to justify whatever they're trying to do. They'd always have a reason for doing what they do (and want to explain it, unlike dee who just says do it and doesn't care whether anyone understands his "point" or not) and would be more receptive to Ti Ego types' suggestions/explanations which I clearly do not see in him. They more or less tend to sift through the points people tell them (who are more education the subject) and then try to digest it all. I don't see a person with Ti hidden agenda coming up with something as utterly pointless as this, and yes, I do understand what he is attempting to do but it's almost laughable b/c I don't see how this would be beneficial in any way to his knowledge of Socionics?
Personally I agree with Joy, he has a Ti PoLR imo as well - probably a Te hidden agenda. You can see this as him trying to compile objective data ... it doesn't look like he tried to understand any sort of system because when Gilly/Ezra/other Ti Ego types talk to him, he brushes aside what they try to explain ... I see him getting more benefit from Te Ego types such as Joy. We'll have to see about his answer on that though.
Honestly, he reminds me a lot of the ExFps I know ... ahem, does he not in some way resemble liveandletlive in the way he goes about asking questions ? Does anyone else see the coorelation between the two?
I see no correlation. Liveandletlive makes much more sense imo. The closest parallel I see is with XoX, with the difference that XoX doesn't seem to have any pretense, unlike dee who has plenty.
My opinion is that dee's too stubborn - or too afraid - to face the reality of how utterly clueless he is in this subject, yet he lacks the (totally unwarranted) self-confidence of a hitta, who just assumes that it's everyone else who's wrong.
So dee is caught in the trap of hoping that people will agree with him - in his own terms. That will never happen.

Only because dee refuses to learn.
and so, you Ti types, what exactly are you suggesting?
it's not like dee has paid any attention to anyone.
Funny, I don't feel tension with you. I just feel like you should listen to me
Interesting. That doesn't help much with Te vs. Ti though.
Everyone else: dee doesn't refuse to learn or refuse to listen. He just isn't getting the right type of feedback. (I don't think this mode of communication conveys his tone very well.) What he does is says things that he knows may not be true because he wants someone to tell him he's wrong. Then he argues his point not because he believes it, but because he wants someone to show him why it's wrong. He's looking for criticism, but it ought to be about his ideas or suggestions specifically, not him personally. (If you read the SEE/ILI duality description, it makes sense that he could be SEE. This is one of the ways that SEE's draw out ILI's. What could be better for The Critic than to be with someone who's always looking for Te criticism? Also, the SEE is the asker and the ILI is the declarer. Keep in mind though that SEE's are Se dominant, so their version of "asking" is different from a lot of other types. This also explains why ILI's have enough patience for this type of interaction.)
That interaction is one way in which he learns, and it sort of reminds me of a rather ADHD SEE friend I once had. It was funny listening to her and the LII I was with communicate. LII's like to explain things to people by helping them build a logical system/structure regarding the subject. They use points of reference in that system to explain new things, or explain how things are connected, and SEE's don't play along very well. From the LII's perspective, it's like "How can I explain something to you when I have no idea what you're thinking? Nothing remains constant! You change your opinions around so much that there's no way someone could keep up. I start to explain something and before I can finish you're off on something else, or you just totally change your stance on the subject, or you don't follow what I'm trying to explain."
(Correct me if I'm wrong, dee.)
i'm flattered albeit confused.
Oh, to find you in dreams - mixing prior, analog, and never-beens... facts slip and turn and change with little lucidity. except the strong, permeating reality of emotion.
