I'm starting to doubt that I'm an INTP

[mu is mu]

Lol, I don't expect many people to, as it's mostly a long explanation about the miscommunication that occurred and many of the aspects involved on both our parts that led to it. Most people would probably find it dull. The last paragraph was pertinent to the topic, though.

 

[intpz]

Not really, or at least not useful.

Anyway, back on topic.

I couldn't quite say exactly what you would be if you were not an INTP, but after reading many of your posts I get the gist that you're not very. I think it's the fact that all of your new threads end with a strict 'stay on topic or else' statement, and your immediate and unforgiving correction when someone doesn't quite fit your defined terms. Yes, this is logical (to an extreme), which leads me to think NT. But the unforgiving strictness makes me think J. Also, you post quite a lot on this forum and your responses are thought out and measured; it doesn't necessarily indicate introversion, but people who are introverted do tend to be drawn to writing as a means of communication over face to face interactions. That one is completely speculation.

I'm certainly not an expert on these matters, though, this is just what my intuition says. :3

Interesting. Actually, as I've mentioned in another post, lately I've been liking more and more face-to-face communication: it allows me to use intonation, body language and facial expressions, which helps tremendously to get my point across. Plus it's faster and you see the "true" thoughts through the very same means. At times, it can even be annoying when you're chatting with someone, as they think through what to say for 10 minutes or ignore part of what you say. That can't happen in real life, you can nag the answer out of them, and either get it or make them leave because they're angry at you. Of course that's excluding cases where the leaving part would be hitting.

ISTP. My hubby is one so I am familiar with them. Cool type. My SO
is hot and brilliant - he just doubts himself too much on intellectual prowess
(btw I am INTJ that scores super low on J...my husband and all my friends assumed I was INTP. Guess I act like one - Ennegram 5w4)

What are you basing me being an ISTP on? I've declined that in various ways in this topic.

Im an INTP and I love to party, albiet my ideal party would be at a remote lighthouse with an internet connection but anyplace where I dont recognize anybody; I feel right at home.

as for the indie game industry ; good luck with that
I plan to do freelance art on top of running an animation studio

Well, ISTPs refuse to be put in a category.

And you fight us to the very end asserting your individuality,


it is good to know your type, i think istps are the hardest to type because they value individuality.\it is good you aspire to be intp but istp are amazing, that is all.

btw we can lurk, its for the best, the yumminess is here

I think a criteria as that is present for any NT type.

 

[Miz Mishtal]

Debate as you will, I think you are ISTP. But enneagram - I think - defines you more.

Can you give me a compelling argument(s?) to back your statement up? So far I only see repetition.

You definitely seem different compared to the others whom post on this forum.

I noticed that, that's the main cause for why this thread exists.

I would guess INTJ. Same functions, different stack. You have more directness and disinterest in analysis then most INTPs. As others have said ISTP is a possibility, but I'll guess INTJ, as ISTPs generally have zero interest in MBTI in my experience.

 

[intpz]

@Architect I'm interested in analysis, as long as I find it useful and interesting. If it's simply a long post pondering about a subject, I am most likely gonna skip it. That's the reason why I've skipped many posts that may be interested.

In any case, I cannot be an ISTP, as I do know two of them, one in real life, one on the net. The guy on the net is a confirmed ISTP, by the way - you just gotta know how to make (manipulate?) the guy to take the test. After that, he wasn't interested in it, and I saw no reason why I would want him to be. In addition to that, I can't relate to many things that are different from NTs in their descriptions.

It feels as it's impractical, as if it's useless to find it out by myself: the same could be done by others, and I wouldn't "waste" my time on it. Instead, I want to get my ideas "out there," I want to make them work and see them in action.

Take what I've been wanting to do, create a game company: I would like to do it because I believe that I would enjoy doing it and it would profit me. I could get my idea of a game to "get out there," get others to create a game which was my vision, improve it, create a sequel, an expansion or another game, see another idea to life. And while I want to see the idea to life, I can't say that I want to do it myself, I don't feel like learning programming, graphics design, etc., just to create it. I also think that I would enjoy managing the workflow, seeing that it complies to the standards, discussing it with the team of developers and getting ideas for improvement from them as well, which, in the end would be a great final product create from my vision, my idea.

Along with seeing my ideas to life, I would also be rewarded with money, money which I could use to significantly improve the quality of my life: buy a house, a car, a computer, maybe even a network and learn how a server station works, how servers work, etc.. Buy quality food that I actually enjoy eating, buy pleasant clothes (not popular, clothes that feel good on me, quality material), buy technology, and possibly eventually even extra life length.


I am not looking to put myself in a box, in some frames and rules by which I am supposed to live. I will always live how I want to, I will do what I want to, not what an article tells me to do. I value thinking for my(your)self.

ENTP or INTJ

Maybe you have learned something new and have subconsciously started applying to your conscious, what you have learned.. Nothing is set in stone..
