I think my self-typing is a five. 6w5 might seem a bit like me, but it's hard for me to identify with the core traits of sixness. I know little about such things, so you could be right.
I don't really know much about e types either, but i've spoke to two guys who know stuff and i've had a look at some of it and i'm thinking either 6w5 or 5w6 for me. I'll have me a look at the 9w8 you suggested as another possible typing.
wow, you think I'm a 6w5...I don't even know how to respond to that
I don't type myself... especially in ennaegram. please remove.Bionicgoat 9w1

I'm going to make a userlist just so I can say how little I think of you, Glam. I'm this close to doing it.

I like reading these userlists too.
Oh, and I've never typed myself on enneagram.
Not that it matters.

chopin is a deeply caring individual, and one who likes to express her love for various individuals she feels in some way attached to. At her core, she's actually quite selfish, and almost always (in comparison with me) are her posts referring to someone who isn't herself. The upbeat positive attitude could be attributable to either the nervous 6w7 who looks for allies, or it could be to do with her generally being upbeat; that is, a 7w6. Ultimately though, I think her main motivation lies with caring for and about others.
Adding "I think" would be appropriate. What the hell do you know about my 'core'?? Lol.

i don't necessarily disagree with 5w6, but i've always typed myself as 5w4 sx/sp or sp/sx.

Well, I agree with mine, for whatever that's worth.
Hey, I self type as a 7w8. And where'd you get my "self-typing" anyhow?

Ezra, I'm just sayin' that most of the old EI has me typed as a 5w6. I couldn't really convince them of anything else.

Mime, just a quick thought, but maybe 9w1.

Exactly. Totally the reasons I was thinking.

i don't know why i get the idea that you pull a lot of these etypes out of your ass, ezra.

jesus guys you take everything way too seriously. You are making dramatics uncool.

This is me and my dual being scientific together
There are like three types that are more likely for me than 7.
And who on earth ever said that I'm 3w2? I know machintruc has been insisting that I'm a 3 since he doesn't hate me and he hates 8's or whatever, but I don't recall him saying that I have a 2 wing. If I was a 3 (which I'm definitely not), I'd be 3w4.
I don't really see what the big deal is, the guy made a list, he's put down the reasons for the types (that he's had time to do) and he may have got some wrong. Big deal. Is it really that important to people that your made up name that's on some list that people will never see is totally correct? Or are people just kidding on that they are getting worked up about it
Funny, because still, people see me as a source of authority. Still they're challenging me on something that's not even firm or proven! They're arguing with me about my own baseless opinions! It's massively ironic, because this idea shits right down UDP IM A PRETENSE EZRA IS AUTHORITY GOD 4EVA's throat.
What's so funny about that? It's perfectly plausible.
I am so sorry. I didn't mean to write "selfish". I meant to write "selfless". Seriously, I'm really sorry about that. That was completely not what I meant to say. I've corrected it now.
I'm going to keep her on the list out of principle. Why does she think she's special or deserves any less coverage than anyone else? I'll type her as I please. It's my goddamned userlist, and I can put who the fuck I like on it and I can say what the fuck I please about them.
No. She's far too dramatic and self-expressive to be a 9w1.
You're learning quickly, child.
I will give you POWER. You have only to kneel to ME and accept me as your KING.
Maybe it's because I haven't justified half of them. God, don't you people read anything except your own fucking type? Self-centered fucks. Self-centered people always miss the point, because all they care about is themselves and what people think of them, instead of reading the first fucking line of the fucking list.
Yes, thank you. Some people do read.
3w4 was a type considered on EIDB. Joy, I don't think you're a 3w4, but I think it's a possibility, because I don't have anything against it.
Yeah, like chopin, another person with sense.
Who said 3w2 though? Your list says 3w2, not 3w4.
3 is certainly more likely than 7!Joy, I don't think you're a 3w4, but I think it's a possibility, because I don't have anything against it.
There's absolutely no question in my mind though, I am 8.
You and I have talked about this more than we've talked about anything else, I think. And every time you ask me questions and every time you say at the end of the conversation that you think that I'm an 8.
newsflash: Ezra is a serf (think: lowly folks at the bottom of feudal triangle)
seriously, i dont think you're an authority. who cares if you are or aren't, or whether people think you are or aren't? but i do think that when you write a list containing peoples' names and types of anything and with any degree of certainty next to the names, you are inviting some sort of challenge. some people look to you for conclusions without even realizing it, Ezra, because you assert yourself as if you could provide them. this type of confidence conjurs up memories of my own history in serfdom, so i thank you. they were serious confident folks and we should all spend more time at the bottom of the triangle.

I am not on the list, but it's ok since I understand that we rarely communicate so you don't know much about me.
Not anymore it doesn't.
Okay, fair enough. But if I change it now people will think less of me for being inconsistent and fickle!3 is certainly more likely than 7!

Yeah, fair point.
To you, perhaps. To me, maybe. To this forum, it's a possibility. To others off this forum, it's plausible.
Correcto.
Awwww, I'm sorry. I know I've been a bit harsh with you recently. Rest assured that I do like you a lot (and I mean that with all my heart. Genuinely).
ETA: god, I just read that back to myself and it actually made me LOL because it really is harsh shit.

First of all, why would I write a long response when I can say what I'm trying to say with a short one? I'm a big fan of efficiency... usually effectiveness as well, but not always in my communications here, which brings me to my second comment...
Sometimes I know that only 1 out of 10 people who read what I wrote are going to understand it. They're the ones who matter anyways (as evidenced by their understanding of it), and I see no reason to put forth the effort to explain the whole situation/context/meaning to the rest of the world. If anyone else wants to understand what I'm saying they'll ask. And if I feel like getting into it I will.
Thirdly, what does any of your comment have to do with my being 7 or 3 over 8?
My "dependent style of thinking?" Fuck you, man!
No but seriously, this "taking all advice" thing is just me being fed up with trying to figure out my own type. In fact it's a direct result of not taking enough advice.
Nonetheless I see merit in 7w6. It seems to make the most sense. Tanehem has a case for 3w4, but I think all of my behavior relative to 3 and 4 is extremely unhealthy, and my behavior is more typical of a 7w6, I think.
But, for a certainty, back then,
We loved so many, yet hated so much,
We hurt others and were hurt ourselves...
Yet even then, we ran like the wind,
Whilst our laughter echoed,
Under cerulean skies...
