(@Dragon-snapper, if you’re not sure how to use google docs, I can be a go-between for you and @Jess-Penrose *fingerguns* All cool if you’re okay though. 😀 )

@Mark-Kamibaya this was definitely interesting. *nods* I mean, obviously it’s not perfect. a) nothing is and b) humans are /all/ unique. I personally second basically what Daeus said. I’ve seen how the MBTI is actual a literal thing that does apply to people. No one fits perfectly.

@mark-kamibaya I understand that MBTI isn’t completely real. Like what Jess Penrose was saying, we can’t be put into a mold of one type of person or the next. Besides, I could never understand it for my characters. It really only told me whether he was an extrovert or an introvert.
Phsychology…along with time travel, is one of those things I…[Read more] -

Btw, MBTI isn’t a mold, it’s a framework. Similar to how a dwarf and a giant are both human, you could have two people who are radically different but who still process their environments in similar ways.
Also, MBTI is not a surefire way to organize a business. That’s because, again, it’s not a mold, it’s a framework. MBTI can help an…[Read more]

LOl, @mark-kamibaya, you’re super brave. That is an interesting article, though none of the points seem very substantial at all except the lack of publicized research in journals. That’s a big problem, though I’d be interested to hear what the MBTI community says about it.
The five-factor model also looks interesting. I’d like to know more about…[Read more]

@jess-penrose I totally agree.

@jess-penrose Exactly! I also use MBTI for characters, but then I trash it later on 😛 But I never got used to using it on people. I just thought the article showed me that MBTI (and the Enneagram too) is definitely not the end game when it comes to personality. So I thought of my writing buddies and the community here on KP.

Supposedly, MBTI has very little evidence backing it up. I found this article that explains the whole thing. But since MBTI is so crazy simple, I guess I’ll still use it for my stories 😛

@that_writer_girl_99 Aha, sneaky 😉
That’s cool 😀 I found the articles really helpful, but now I’m finding even more help with the people, since I joined the forum as well. You learn so much from asking other people their experience 🙂
Oh, that’s cool. I’ve considered sci-fi as well, but nothing’s ever come of it yet 😉

@that_writer_girl_99 Haha, yep 😀 By the way, how do you do more faces than just the usual 🙂 🙁 😀 😛 😉 ???
I have been on KP for about a year or more now. I first discovered it reading an article about fantasy and the Christian writer (and I think that was the title of it too 😉 ) but I didn’t join until about a year later.

@that_writer_girl_99 I hope you don’t find it insulting that I found that funny 😉 It’s always interesting when a British show, especially, have an American character, and they are always more rude.
And yes, I live in Australia 🙂 Thanks

@that_writer_girl_99 Aw, you enjoyed it that much? 😀 I’ve only been overseas once in my life, the States when I was 5, to visit my dad’s family for Christmas. I only vaguely remember it. But I’d love to go again, to visit some very good friends I’ve made who live over there. That, or go to Europe. But Canada sounds like a great place to visit as well 😀
