Myers-Briggs Personality Type

Looks like I'm the only ISFP so far...

too bad this one wasn't done as a poll.

ISTP, the last time I took the test.
INTJ, today... guess you're different depending on mood maybe?

Well also 72 questions is a relatively small sample size.
If you were to answer 1000 questions or something, it would be more accurate.
Assuming you fine someone who would sit there that long.

INTP like all the cool kids

INTJ

# very expressed introvert
# moderately expressed intuitive personality
# slightly expressed thinking personality
# slightly expressed judging personality

One of the rarest personality types, INTPs are estimated to account for about 1–5% of the population

I also added a poll to the first post, since it was requested.

[/quote]Given INTPs are 1/20 to 1/100 people...how do multiboxers compare to the overall population? even to the overall population of WoW?

I think the traits involved are ones which would tend to make someone more disposed to trying multiboxing in the first place.

I'm surprised to see so many INTP. According to wikipedia, it's supposed to be a relatively rare type.

I don't find it particularly surprising. Given that we're a very niche group with a shared interest. Despite the idea that anyone can do this, I wouldn't say our community could be anything close to being a random sample of the population at large.

Oh, I'm not saying that I thought we were supposed to be distributed evenly, I just thought "hey, it's interesting that there appears to be an INTP drift on the Multiboxing forum". Whether it's becaues we multibox, or we like to talk on the forums, or we're likely to take a personality quiz -- the fact that it's supposedly a small percentage of the normal population and it appears to be a much larger percentage here on the forums is interesting.

Indeed. Sweet, sweet correlation. I'm just a stickler for probabilities and statistics.

I don't find it surprising a bunch of introverted problem-solving system-analysts/builders would end up doing the same thing.

Another INTJ here - 3rd time in about 5 years i've tried one of those tests and i've hit the same category each time, although every time i'm always just barely J over P.
