Ah, MMOs. How I've wasted so many countless hours that I should've spent doing something productive...and yet, I still can't stop ;). Anyhow, here's my take on things (though I've never played Aion, so...): Necromancer- INTP Sorcerer/Elementor- INTJ Spirit Master- INFP Chanter- INFJ Assassin-...

Hmm, interesting. I guess I'll try and explain my reasoning, although it's not really strong/more gut feeling than anything. I thought that the guy on the left was an INTP because he didn't really seem to be enjoying himself/kinda "meh" about the whole situation (screamed INT), but P...

Alright, I'll take a shot at it (and be hilariously wrong): From left to right: INTP ESTJ INFP And shoeless: INFP would've been my last guess for your brother on the left! Ah, well, this is a (fun) exercise in futility, it seems :p.

I didn't see the "in" in that sentence...my, that's embarrassing :o. But, yeah...I had to take an MBTI test in high school as well (although I initially dismissed it on the grounds of it being impossible to fit people into 16 types only). Anyhow, I guess I'll see you around on the forums...

Welcome to the forums - hopefully you'll be able to escape some of the awkwardness of junior high here. Out of curiosity, how'd you find out so early? Most people here don't hear about the MBTI until they're in high school (at least).

Was I the only one who thought that this picture looked like batman? I guess what they say is true...:eek: I've always liked this site. It does a google search of what you type in, and then takes the images that come up and generates a "dream-like" image - it's pretty cool.

I'm gonna second that recommendation for Jaco Pastorius playing with Weather Report - a lot of their stuff is amazing. I think you should also check out Medeski, Martin, and Wood - they're an instrumental trio (keyboard, bass, and percussion...but one album has them working with a wicked jazz...

This isn't really a resort, nor is it in too exotic of a locale - but the Monterey Bay Aquarium has webcams that let you peek into some of the exhibits/into the open bay. Some of it's pretty cool...

So...I saw a stage illusionist the other day, and it really got me thinking about a lot of things. First and foremost - how do they do those tricks? I'd just like to throw this out there - if anybody has ideas/theories/postulations/whatever on how popular stage magic/illusions (like the...

Interesting. I guess I'll have to take your word on the typing for now - there's nothing I can say to disprove you; I'll have a shot at it myself, actually. I do still have unanswered questions, though...again, regarding accuracy. You said that you've tested your theories mainly on colleagues...

Re: Guild to typing in real time. That's pretty nifty how you've got a system all set up on how to see the different functions in action - it's great to see how someone else goes about typing others. I do have some questions about it, however (so you were definitely right about the skepticism...

I'm interested in the proposed "social recovery" hypothesis - the idea that Phineas Gage was able to recover a lot of his former personality after the incident through a structured lifestyle/job. The implication, of course, is that those who have been affected somehow can also recover a lot of...

Dr. Blackburn gave a lecture at the university I'm attending; she actually didn't talk much about how it could prevent aging...she mainly focused on how telomeres could be used as an indicator of aging/how stress increases the rate of telomerase depletion as opposed to repairing them to prolong...

Fantasy Mission Force...a movie so bad, it's amazing. It 'stars' Jackie Chan, even though he appears in a grand total of five scenes - the movie really doesn't make any sense at all, and is chock-full of anachronisms (but hilarious to watch). Yes, that man did say that he is Abraham Lincoln...

Not pens...straws. Whenever I drink something with a straw, you can bet that I'll keep chewing it for a good fifteen minutes or so.

Wait - who says that it's a good place to meet women? I've never heard of this piece of sage advice before (pun unintended, really), and it really doesn't seem like a good idea. It just seems like it would be too awkward/based on nothing in particular/too forced and unnatural, unless you saw...

Yeah, I gotta say that I do this as well. It's really interesting - it's almost like I'm an observer to two different people talking about a subject; it almost always leads to some sort of interesting insight that I didn't see before. Whenever there's a discussion going on in my head, it seems...

Refuse to partake...in...free...candy...?! I love Halloween - if only for the fact that it is free candy, and that you can act strange without anyone watching you. Well, sometimes :p. On top of that, chocolate is incredibly cheap after Halloween passes :D. Well, I have been on MSN, but you're...

I figured a change would be appropriate, seeing as how Halloween is just around the corner :smiley_emoticons_mr Yeah, I haven't had much time to spare recently - although I think that's going to change now (as I just wrote the majority of my midterms this week) so hopefully I'll be able to not...

Thanks again...I've posted up two more pieces (actually, all three that I've posted were recorded for a competition of sorts). The two I've just posted are a Chopin Nocturne (Op. 15, No. 2) and the first movement of Bach's Italian Concerto. It's interesting - listening to them now, I can pick...

55% Evil, 83% Intelligence, 80% Common Sense Grahf is an entity that primarily consists of the raw emotions of hate, anger, and bitterness. Born from the ashes of the Third Contact, Grahf lives on by posessing the bodies of others, and travels the world seeking people gullible enough to accept...

I was surprised about that too, actually. When I first found this forum, I wanted to see what my first level university psychology text said about the MBTI - but it wasn't even mentioned; I think they tend to stick with the more 'empirical' tests (i.e. Big Five, MMPI-2, etc.) as opposed to the...

ISFJ... Thankfully my type is determined by my personality and not by my looks, or else I'd be...boring ;).

Well, if there wasn't any sort of physical/mental degradation, I'd have to say I'd love to do a lot; travel, take risks, learn new things...I'd want to explore more than anything. Explore not just places, but situations - what would happen if I told that girl what I felt about her? What would...

Would anyone be up for playing a game of PbP DnD? Ideally, we'd create a group of four (or five) fleshed out PCs, and then find a DM on a PbP-focused site, or something (or even better, have someone from intpforum DM - we'd still have to go to a PbP site for a dice roller, though). Writing a...

I believe that I'm right eye dominant, but I prefer holding the silent scope rifle (y'know, the arcade game) left-handed (and paintball guns, too).

I think I'm fairly good in picking up on other people's emotions; however, unless I know them well (family or very close friend) it's hard for me to 'understand' their feelings. Even if it is someone I'm close to, I can 'identify' the feeling that I think they're experiencing and identify with...

Same! I thought this thread was about "what type would be most likely to try to 'type' (by MBTI standards) Dvorak, the composer?" It confused me until I actually opened the thread... In any case, I'd say INTJs would be the most likely candidate - I just can't seem to picture any other type...

you're never on MSN when I'm on! :( though I guess the same applies to you :P

Definitely; I hardly ever remember exact or specific details about a place I visit, but I do have a pretty good sense of what it felt like. I think being in an isolated place where there's few people (or even better, none save for myself) is a far better experience than, say, doing some cliched...

The Explorer You scored 36% Egocentricism, 44% Heirarchy, 71% Spiritualityand 50% Morality! Hmm, go figure...

Scribblenauts has to be one of the greatest DS games of all time. The ability to summon the large hadron collider (as well as pretty much anything else you can think of) = instant win.

Hmm...I don't particularly enjoy crowds, but it's not overly-disconcerting to me (unless people infringe on my personal space). I'm usually lost in thought when I walk from class to class; if there's a window, I'll stare out it as I move past and just see what comes to mind. Other times, I'll...

My experience is that social situations (mixers, parties, what have you) are generally hit or miss; I find that if you can find at least one person to "click" with, then talking/having fun flows very easily. Unfortunately, if this doesn't happen, I usually end up staring off into space because...

I think I read something about this before...the idea was pretty much what you said - you get used to seeing your face in the mirror, so if you smile on your left side, it looks like you're smiling on your right (in the mirror). Cameras, however, are not mirrors, so when you smile on your left...

I'm not so sure about giving directions, but when I want to go somewhere that I haven't gone before, I sort of go in the 'general direction' that I'm headed, and take all sorts of alternate routes just to see where they lead. As long as I know where my destination and where my starting points...

I'm fairly good at bluffing/making stuff up/lying (especially after learning how to not appear to lie), but I only tend to do so in games (i.e. Diplomacy, Clue, etc.) Lying in 'everyday' life doesn't feel right - I always try to tell the truth (but I may soften it, depending on the situation).

I want to work in a job where my mind will be challenged by 'routine' work (which will hopefully be anything but). I think a job as a (forensic?) pathologist would also be pretty wicked; being a forensic psychiatrist might be pretty interesting, too.

Ah! You got me... Alas, alack, my fiendish ruse has been uncovered! I shall have to retreat to the darkest recesses of the internet to hide (or am I there already?) I am joking, of course :P But I think I'll try and get IRC working - are you on that often?

That does sound rather unfortunate...if there's one thing about university I don't like, it's the bureaucracy/running in circles that one has to do for anything. It's infuriating sometimes, so I know exactly what you're talking about. At least you missed the 'intro' day... :P How are your...

Just one? I really wouldn't be able to decide on just one. I really liked MGS3, Persona 3, FFX, Shadow of the Colossus, and Katamari Damacy. The PS2 has a plethora of great games...

I've found that creating systems/rules (like for a game) really help to develop (what I presume to be) Ti. I like to lie on my back and think about the rules to a game that I've thought of, and then play it out in my head; depending on what happens, I revise the rules in some way. These rules...

Unfortunately, I hope you'll understand if I don't add you on MSN...I like to hide behind my anonymity on the internet :phear: (it doesn't mean that I don't enjoy talking to you though :p).

Nice (the degree, that is - not the first day). I hope you didn't have to go through "orientation" and "frosh week" (not sure if it's called that over in Ireland)...in my opinion, it's just something people do because it's something people have always done. Really, I don't think that froshing...

Yeah, immediate environment (sorry if I wasn't clear before) - I think that someone may have personality traits that may, say, predispose them to commit an assault, but unless their immediate environment (such as in a nightclub, where there's loud music, it's warm, and it's crowded) provides...

Hey, and welcome to the forums! I hope you'll like it here :). As for avatars - just google image search something that you think represents you/you like...or you could draw one yourself (if you're good at drawing) or use one your friend made for you (as was the case for me :p).

Sorry if I'm gravedigging, but yellow's avatar inspired me...I think... It's raining. The drops of rain splash against the window, racing down towards the earth - only to be swallowed by the ground, leaving nothing but a memory behind. The sky is crying. The thunder crashes, but the rain...

(sorry, I had to break up my post into two parts) :P I think that environmental criminology is a pretty interesting area of research, but I don't agree with the theory that crimes are purely a result of environment, and that anyone, given the right circumstances, would be a criminal - I think...

Waaaaaaittt....I didn't sign up on this forum to be snuggled! :P Also, no worries about the delay - c'est la vie. As to how I see criminals...on one hand, I view them as simply being one piece of the crime - crime being a confluence of three main factors: the criminal, the environment of the...

Although it's not quite in the same vein as Myst or the King's Quest games, I thought that Shadow of the Colossus was a real 'adventure' game - the game is essentially one beautifully rendered world where the entire point of it is to get lost in its landscape...
