MBTI is, according to Wikipedia, "a psychometric questionnaire designed to measure psychological preferences in how people perceive the world and make decisions." It's a personality test that sorts you into 1 of 16 categories. I've recently found out that there are at least 5 INTJs here at dreamviews, including myself. This is an uncommonly high number, and I'd like to see what other types frequent here.
I'm going to attempt to make a list of what types all the regulars at Dreamviews are. Click on the afro to take the test

very cool idea Conkt. I know this has been done here before but not in this same fashion. It's cool to list everyones personality type and see whose similar to one another.
btw. I'm ENTJ and the information from the second afro pretty much fits the bill.
Makes sense considering the logical creature that I am.
EDIT: And reading your articles and the wikipedia page, it pretty much hits me on the spot. Plus, I've gotten that result every time I take a test like this.

Looking at this thread, as well as the two Exobyte linked, there seem to be a fairly high number of Introverts. But what do you expect from a bunch of escapists who live in their heads
Hmm...perhaps lucid dreaming is just the sort of thing an INTJer would be interested in, and when coupled with an online forum allowing introverts to retain their anonymity, I could see how it would attract people. However, that still does not account for the fact that 10% of my *rather large* IP class is INTJ, as well...

Quick search revealed a bunch more threads. They're all pretty old.
But would be interesting to take the information and amalgamate it into a poll.

Also, I took the test a few times. Got INTJ every time. Took 2 other tests and got INTP on each of them.
They both appear accurate, so either works.
(The list for INTJ is impressive!)
EDIT: There are a lot of INTJs in the other threads too.
