This might be an obvious answer for INTJs, but I am actually asking INTPs, either to see if I am the only one who thinks my own type bitches too much or I'm just more INTJ-er inside.

Recently I saw that INTPc had posted something about INTJforum I didn't bother reading it, I want to make it clear that it's not that I think this forum is better than INTPc [because I think a lot of other forums are, haha, but that's personal opinion], I'm just curious as to why INTPs hang around here and what type of INTPs they are, if that makes sense.

Show yourselves!


Or not.

Edit: oh yes, and I did recently go back to INTPc, to make that clear, the reason is I was bored :D, but such didn't help boredom for long...

To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 2 or greater. You currently have 0 posts. is better.

And a lot of INTPs do have a tendency to complain or rant. I personally keep it to myself though.

Um there were 42 members on that forum when I just clicked it. Maybe you shouldn't keep it to yourself. LOL

So which one of the spinoffs is that?

And I think I joined there...maybe.

I suppose at least one person thinks so, not bad.

Whine is one way of putting it. Another is 'wallowing in a sea of despair.'

A depressed INTP is a serious issue! It usually happens when we aren't out experiencing enough, or if we feel we have nothing to live for.


EDit:

I forgot...

I hang around here because I'm very alike intjs (I thought I was one for a while). I love being an INTP, but as a musician I rely on a J switch to get stuff done.

Also, this forum is much more active, has a good sense of humor, has good admins/mods, and for the most part a splendid bunch of members! :)

That's why I joined. I'm almost an INTJ anyway.

I don't whine; I only broadcast my despair on audible channels.

As for why I come here, I'm addicted to the IRC channel. I come here as a consequence.

I relate to that, not the musician part, but mostly with school.

I know I'm not an INTJ, but I could pass off as one, except, I have seen a difference in the way I deal with things or ideas, I am able to let them go pretty easily if they're not going to help whatever objective I might have.

I also REALLY dislike "debates" with people, it accomplishes nothing most of the time, because people are not open-minded enough to see your point, they just want to "win", and you're just wasting time. I much prefer a good discussion.

As for why INTPs are broken per se, I think it's because some of us haven't gotten past ourselves, our egos, but deep inside we are easily shattered.

One horrible and bad relationship or event in your life is enough to fuck you up majorly, but for INTPs it could be worse and eventually end up as hatred.

I think INTP's drink too much wine, and they never share, fooey on all you INTP's.

Because we love the whole concept of whining so much, we even want to read threads about INTPs whining that INTPs whine too much.

Seriously, I just like this forum, so I come here occasionally. Also, the INTPc forum seems to be experiencing technical difficulties in a suitably ironic fashion right now...

I registered there the other day, and I was automatically banned.

(So judgmental, those INTPs are.)

Automatically? Did they give any reason?

Omg are the INTPs grabbing this thread for the whine?

It's happening :blank:.

No, I just typed in my e-mail address and it told me that my account was banned.
