Another way to parse out the competency styles between 1 from 5. I’ll use silke as an example, to illuminate this. She is a more introverted 1. Silke types David Bowie so/sp 4w3. Bowie is a pretty clear sx/so 3w4. Bowie’s closest type twin on the board would be Darya. Darya is a sx/so 3w4. Darya not only comes off like a clear sx-first, but is self-aware to know her type. But instead of Silke reconsidering her own typing of Bowie she instead types Darya a 4w3 so/sp because Darya has a similar expression in her eyes as Bowie. So Darya’s true type in silke’s mind has to be disregarded in favor of some ideal construct of Bowie’s type and whatever Darya says about her motivations etc all are dismissed in favor of pinning cliches about type four onto Darya. Bowie isn’t telling silke anything about his enneagram type. He’s just some cookie cutter celebrity silke is projecting four motivations onto. The fact Darya is a much more 3-dimensional figure on the board and has spoken directly to her own 3 motivations means nothing. Ichazo says that the main motivation of type 1 is to resist reality. Silke is the perfect example of “resistance to reality” as she is rigidly locked into her ideal construct of the types and is even willing to martyr her own competency just to fanatically hold the ideal she has constructed in her imagination. so/sp 1w2 martyrs themselves for the ideal.
5s don’t have this problem of resisting reality. A five on the other hand is more competent in the sense they would be more open to the information and even adjusting their view of bowie's type based on the information darya can give about her own motivations, worldview, core drives, etc. when it comes to telling the difference between type 5 and 1w9, look to the subject of conscience. having a strong, well-developed ‘conscience' is at the forefront of what 1w9s value in themselves, often giving themselves subtle pats on the back for their conscientiousness.
1w2s, however, are very neat and tidy. So once you understand the way Silke enneaspams people, it’s like morse code for what the person’s type is. She’s at least neat enough in her habits to mistype the same way every time. So for instance, she’s got Bowie typed as 4w3 so/sp, so whenever she types somebody on the board so/sp 4w3 it usually means the person is a sx 3. It also means that she’s likely mistyped numerous sx/so types on the forum as sx/so. She has rhonda rousey mistyped as sp/so (a ridiculous typing). Rousey is a clear sx/so and that means she’s likely mistyped numerous sx/so types on the forum as sp/so. That means anytime you see somebody typed by Silke as a sp/so the first thing you need to consider is that they could very well be sx/so. And any time you see somebody typed by Silke as so/sp the first thing you need to consider is that they could very well be sx/so. The true competency of 1w2 is in archiving, organizing cabinets, and doing tedious bureaucratic work like translating (see all those 1 monks that sit around translating biblical text). that’s why so many of them wind up in moderator positions.
My post on Glam’s type got bumped here to bring up an old and dead thread from 2008. That's one annoyingly anal-retentive 1 moderator on staff. Here’s the original thread it got bumped from:

Good thing the post got rerouted, "your typing of forum members" is so full of spam thanks to quack infj typings. I am, however, glad that my post was rerouted here. As anybody can see from the horrendous typings on this ‘possible enneagram typings" thread the enneagram didn’t have much of a face on this forum. It was all very one dimensional. Machintruc is a great representative for why the age of expat had to be killed. He ranks up there with the worst enneagram typers in the forum’s history only being topped by aleksei and Silke. I don’t even think Machintruc, at his worst and most tone deaf, could do worse than think Gordon Ramsey and Vladimir Putin were the same enneagram and socionics type. lol
