Why have all the movies been cut down to a single page of topics? [never mind]

Combination of being open to trolling -- INTPs are the most frequent trollers on the web -- and the Libertarian approach to forum moderation.

I know an INTP guy, by the way, who after being banned from a site created his own forum site where the rule was no moderation at all except for porn. Lasted a couple years before it all collapsed in ruins.

Just as a point of information and not trying to start an argument, actually we have our type for life, but as we grow older we develop more the letters that we do not have. Moreover, the "test" (really a diagnostic) does not *determine* anything. It's just meant as a signpost to help one figure out the correct type. After taking it, one is to read the description of the suggested type and those close to it and from those decide which type is most accurate. So prosaic, huh?

I feel that earlier I didn't give a good enough reply and want to remedy that.

Behind a type like INTP is a more thorough definition, in fact a stack of cognitive functions that the person uses to navigate the world. For INTP that would be

1. Ti - introverted thinking - internal building of logical systems
2. Ne - extroverted intuition - creating ideas, imagination
3. Si - introverted sensing - dwelling on past pleasures, avoiding past pains
4. Fe - extroverted feeling - reading others' emotions and communicating your own
5. Te - extroverted thinking - efficient planning organization of tasks
6. Ni - introverted intuition - discerning, divining the future
7. Se - extroverted sensing - dealing with the physical world, the senses
8. Fi - introverted feeling - empathy and authenticity

About the status of these functions:
1. the one they grew up doing, that they do effortlessly, all the time, like breathing
2. the one that they learned how to do in their teens, and are good at
3. the one that they're not very good at, but by their late 20s start developing
4. the one that they aspire to and start developing in the 30s, but before that are not particularly good at
5. the opposite attitude to (1); their ability in it is strong, but they prefer not to use it
6. the opposite attitude to (2), also strong and not preferred
7. the blind spot that they are not good with at all and don't even see the point of
8. the trickster that only works for them about half the time

Now the stack for INFP would be significantly different
Fi
Ne
Si
Te
Fe
Ni
Se
Ti

So, to me, when an INTP says they have changed from T to F, what that means to me instead is that they are developing or have developed their 4th function. Congrats on doing that, by the way!
