I would not have guessed that. I wonder if some of your personality dimensions fluctuate or are on the border. For me, the E/I fluctuates and so does the F/T. I’m always an N and P. Are you right on the line between T and F? If this test is the one that I remember (the page changed) then I think it gives you percentages:
People who know me on lesswrong tend to tell me that I come across very differently in person than I do online. I think they are right although I suspect that my personal interactions with people here (few though they may be) are rather similar to who I interact in person in the ‘real world’.
I know from experience that acting like a typical INFP in an online environment where INFP is rare is a recipe for disaster—it just doesn’t work. I also find that I am best served by rationing my lesswrong interactions and keeping them balanced by interactions with INFP friends (and lovers). Too much dealing with “Js” just gets tiresome. I actually suspect I’ll take another hiatus from here soon and get my intellectual stimulation from the textbooks and papers on my to-read queue for a while.

I’m very close to the line on T/F, fairly close to the line on E/I.
I’ve heard that test repeatedly labeled as the “only personality test on the internet that works”, but I can’t really find many other Myers-Briggs tests.
Here is one. INFP. Fairly consistent across tests, with the “N” and the “P” being close to the extremes.

No idea about the accuracy, but it’s free.

This makes INFP sound a lot like Elliezer.
Good point. That’s likely to make it harder to discover Fs here.
Aww. ): I hope you’ll still talk to me.
