I'm not sure I have time to write one paragraph about everyone who has a different opinion about their own type. And I'd rather see that people who criticize "the typing process on the forum" can offer their own reference frames for typing other forum members. I don't see better knowledge of Socionics in what you say. It's easy to just react to something you don't personally like because it contradicts your own self-type. I think there was an Excel doc. where people could insert their own typings of forum members, but writing directly in this thread is more at hand.

People can usually open their own threads for getting opinions on their type/stack and you've already done that, haven't you.
Thank you for this irrelevant digression and oh so prescient arm chair psychoanalytic breakdown of my motivations. I'll be sure to consult you the next time I need to see a therapist and I'm running on a short budget.

But that's the point: nobody's giving a reference frame when they make these gigantic lists. There is no hint of where the typings came from or the framework used to generate them. The only constant I see is people copying other people's typings with some modifications of their own.

If I, xerx, had written this:

Allie: SLE or LSI
Ashton: SLE
discoJoe: LSI
jessica129: SLE or LSI
Reuben: EIE
Rick: IEE
silverchris9: IEI
Trevor: LII
woofl: SEE
Yaaroslav: >_<
...

Those are my genuine impressions of these people's types. Do my unsubstantiated claims add any level of enlightenment to the discussion or just more noise -- or, for that matter, more fodder for drama?

Addendum: I've engaged in this sort of activity before as well, so I'm not excusing myself in any way; it was just as idiotic when I was doing it.
