Things about non-INTP INTPc posters that annoy you

[MacGuffin]

1) They want to post on this subforum.

Feel free to add your own.

[stopharian]

2.) they make friends with INTPs who have less than 250 posts who also want to post on this subforum. That can be damned annoying.

[Lurker]

3) Non-INTP posters who say they are INTPs.

[Prothero]

4) Assuring us they like the INTP type before they begin to explain what is wrong with us, and what we need to change about ourselves.

[Hustler]

1. They're stupid.
2. They have a wholly inappropriate sense of entitlement.

[Ferrus]

1. Any form of attempting to add an emotive and personal element to a perfectly rational argument.

[Prothero]

2. They have a wholly inappropriate sense of entitlement.

5) Forgot that part where they would really enjoy INTPc, if it weren't for the INTPs ruining it for them.

[Ferrus]

6) They smell funny

[stopharian]

most of their faces remind me of a dogs ass. In this subforum I can kind of forget about that.

[Madrigal]

They masquerade as INTPs so they can post here...

[ajblaise]

When they try and post in the Current Events & History subforum.

[helium]

They have a wholly inappropriate sense of entitlement.

Despite a few of them occasionally being right.

[Stoned_Rider]

They don't use the Vomitorium enough :no:

[Anonymous]

They seem to be under the impression that INTPc has always existed, and the administration is just this authoritative group of people who happen to be running things at the moment. Although I suppose that's basically what Hustler said...

Aside from that, they can be frustrating to debate with, as "winning" seems to be their goal too often.

7. Thinking they're occasionally right.
8. They just suck. Hell, even off INTP central.

Don't you all think non-INTPs pretty much suck? (remember, non INTPs can't reply to argue this)

[Sierim]

Don't you all think non-INTPs pretty much suck? (remember, non INTPs can't reply to argue this)

Are you excluding honorary INTPs from that assessment? (and even if they can't reply, they can read this, and it wouldn't be efficient for me to create for myself unwanted enemies when such a result could so easily be avoided by simply not answering)

[Karl]

Um... er... well...

Do you like star trek? I like star trek. And science, reason, and sleeping.

[helium]

Don't you all think non-INTPs pretty much suck? (remember, non INTPs can't reply to argue this)

Nope. I contend that such a conclusion is both wrong and wrong-headed, however you choose to define "suck," and I'll venture the claim that such a vague and indiscriminate conclusion is distinctly out of sync with all the literature that attempts to define "INTP," regardless of the fact that INTPness (and any other quality of type) itself is a symptom of personality and not a cause.

[outmywindow]

Most of the nons here are fine; this only applies to a select few: Not realizing that this is my only refuge from people like them, and then crapping all over said refuge.

[Rajah]

I love when non-INTPs give constructive criticism about improvements we can make to the board. I hate when they attack the mods and admins, implying that (1) we don't care about the board and/or (2) running this forum is our primary job. I wish they'd understand that we really care about nurturing and developing this environment, but we're limited by lots of things - real life, time, software, etc. We're making the best decisions we can, given all of the limitations.

Take it easy on us, dangit.

I realize this goes to INTPs, too. Fuckit.

[Karl]

You all are ruining my fun.

Oh well.

*goes back to being reasonable most of the time

First of all I am quite sure raincrow007 was joking about not understanding the concept of morals, but I was trying to be polite in the off chance he really needed to seek an explanation.

Secondly I am aware that INTP's have a tendecy for valuing a good arguement, but flamewars is a frequent example of going over the edge into imaturaty, don't you agree? A good arguementive discussion can be conducted without the use of flaming, I have seen it done, even on this forum!

Now again let me state I was trying to be serious, not emotional, All these threads on INTPCentral, or NCen that seek to bash or critize others, while adding more posts, ultimitely serve nothing towards the primary overall goal of either forum. A place for discussion about similar/contrasting issues of personality (whether iNtuitive or directly/only INTP, which is an offshoot of MBTI trait personality in nature).

But yes, you are right, my particular style of communication is very different than what is normal around here, since my "type" is rare to begin with.

Some may see this place not as a discussion about personality, but a refuge from other "types". But you can't all hide from the world forever. And isn't the coming together of similar types an effort to relate to/hammer out a self-concept of the INTP temperment, thus proving the site is at least partially personality based? :blink:

Yes their logic makes sense; INTP Central is a place for INTPs to relate to one another. Hence, INTP style communication and environment. But I am not seeking to deprive them of this at all, live and let live after all. All I wish is for the bashing of other fora, not just only here, to cease. Thus allowing members to focus their energies on more productive discussions within their own fora realms. Please would someone tell me why threads envolving the bashing of other fora are not imature ways of seeking attention/destructive to the personality fora genre (in which INTP Central is a apart of) in general?

NFs who has the ability and the desire to wrap up the above in a prettier gift wrap than mjolnir. It may appear more innocent from the outside but it's the same moralizing shit once you Ti it down.

Nope, that's not how it works. Once you agree to take any leadership/mod. position you get *arsehole* printed on your forehead with magic ink. It's visible for the people you lead/mod. but it's very often invisible for yourself when you look in the mirror.

It's visible for the people you lead/mod. but it's very often invisible for yourself when you look in the mirror.I don't care if people think I'm an ass, and I'm certainly not denying I can be jerky. The point I raised in my post isn't about people's personal feelings towards me -- it's about having them understand that we are trying to serve the board and make it a smoothly-running place. And sometimes we're constrained by external things. 's all.

I know, but sometimes even understanding is more than you'll receive in a leadership/mod position.

Edited to add:
Hmmm, actually, I lied before, I don't know... because I don't understand the part about not caring whether people think you'r an ass or not. I've been running a company for 6 years and personally, I do care if my employees think I'm an arsehole. People's personal feelings towards me are often linked to their interest in trying to understand why I do what I do whether they agree with me or not (many of my employees are feelers). Furthermore, being bombarded with negative stuff because people perceived me as an arsehole would exhaust my Fe in the long run.... Ehh, not that I compare my situation with yours because I think you'r an arse or that I think INTPC members in generel perceive you like an arse or that my employees in generel thinks I'm an arse ...actually, you know what. My first reply to you in this thread was a joke and what I'm writing right now is kind of OT so just take it like a side comment or Parks random thoughts about being a leader and an arse.

[airjaw]

when they're overly emotional. like Brendan. Jesus H Christ.. he's annoying.
Was it inappropriate to name names? whatever.
