    I find it odd that both unefille and idolatrie jump from Delta to Beta... Is that actually probable, in that they are conflicting quadras?

    We had some significantly incorrect understandings of the functions and temperaments. I actually think the jump to a conflicting quadra is not as impossible as it sounds - they share all the strong functions, it's rather a matter of functional preferences. And it keeps the clubs the same - like I don't think I could be anything but a rational ST.

    I think, perhaps, too much emphasis is placed upon conflict between the quadras in the context of personal relationships. I can't see why I can't get along very well with other people if they are mature, sensible, friendly and polite. Which are all features I've found in Deltas and people of every quadra.

    The mental leap it took to thinking of myself as LSI as opposed to LSE was not one taken lightly or for shits and giggles. There's a couple of long threads somewhere on the forum pretty much detailing that process if you are particularly interested in observing what that process was like.

    Perhaps, but I am not sure if they are capable of being objective enough to accept it if it was the case.

    I don't know if I'm Delta, but I do value Delta values the most.

    What?! That's like letting an F join the "Number Club." Rediculous. She can hang around, but she doesn't get a badge.


    I'd kinda like to be an Alpha, but I've always been a Delta and I always will be. My favorite part about socionics: It's not supposed to change.

    I'm investigating a new type after family/friends read the descriptions (re: me) and gave some surprising answers...

    The Stratiskevishiasefgjhysdgfjuyws ENFp profile is the closest thing I've ever read to my personality, IMO.

    Hmm, actually Juju I saw a vid you have on youtube (one of the very few with the tag "Socionics") that you did with a friend. You both seemed very Delta.

    Everything has to go thru Ezra. If Ezra say's you're a certain type, you can't argue because Ezra = God. Even though he changes his type on a daily basis, he knows everything.

    UGH. Get out of delta, Ezra. You're annoying.

    Posts I wrote in the past contain less nuance.
    If you're in this forum to learn something, be careful. Lots of misplaced toxicity.

    You make it sound as if they decided to not be delta. People can't change their type, whether somebody is or isn't in a qaudra isn't within their control. They are either now wrong or they never were delta to begin with, nobody changed types.

    Apparently Slacker Mom is the only real Delta here on this forum. Anyone else who dares to think themselves as Delta are either Betas in denial or some sort of ether-being, homeless and stuck between existences.

    Why is it that so many are "suspected" of being Beta and so few of Delta? Why can't one of these type debates include something like, "No! You're definitely not Beta! You are so Delta it's not even funny" or something like that. It's like whenever somebody's type is questioned, the default is Beta. Anyway...

    Sereno, I have not changed my type. And I do not intend to for the foreseeable future. I consider myself INFj.

    Sneg, and anybody else who agrees with him, you have yet to provide me with any good reasons or explanations for why you think me Beta. Until you can offer some convincing arguments, I'm not going to take your opinions on the matter seriously. Sorry. And, let me warn you, for me to get anywhere near changing what I think my type is, your arguments are going to have to be very, very convincing, stemming from accurate knowledge of me and a solid understanding of the theory. And, not to offend, but I don't think many here meet both of those qualifications together.

    However, I will listen to/read what you have to say, so if anyone would like to further discuss my type, there is a thread dedicated to that very subject.
    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.

    I can't imagine you as ISTj or INFp. If you weren't INFj, the only other type I'd be able to see would be ISFj.

    I consider people's self-typings as generally more relevant than other people do. But you've been around long enough and have contributed enough to have some idea. So if you say INFj over ISFj I'm inclined to believe you.

    I think the assumption is that someone as serious about religion as you must be Se-valuing, and maybe Ti as well. But this place is all about typing by huge sweeping generalizations and assumptions these days.
    It ain't what you don't know that gets you into trouble. It's what you know for sure that just ain't so.

    Why do you say/think that?

    Sneg, and anybody else who agrees with him, you have yet to provide me with any good reasons or explanations for why you think me Beta.

    Alright, correct me if anything I say here is wrong:

    What you seek is for somebody to provide you with a complete, coherent picture of your type built from simple and well-understood parts, for there to be concrete order and structure in their arguments. And also in order for you to take the other person seriously they would have to express their thoughts and ideas with clarity and exactitude, to present clear and concise explanations of concepts, rather than a focus on things that are not directly pertinent. Basically you want good, solid rationales and justifications that are pertinent. This is what you had in mind when you stared that thread about yourself, you seek, expect and feel relaxed by a source of logical certainty.
