There's a lot that needs to be said about that subject, and it has been said piecemeal all over the web about different aspects of the video game industry. I'm going to summarize it in maybe two sentences. When the gaming industry stops being the playground for wall street types, realizing...

I'll just throw this stone in, and just say the following: Chaotic doesn't have to mean that one is stirring shit. Chaos could just simply mean 'a lack of order being imposed upon the situation'. I noticed that with the neutral nature of that particular personality type, that person usually...

I highly suggest reading the Red Mars series, specifically the last book, Blue Mars as it touches on that first point in a fairly realistic manner, and they were only living 250 or so years. In summary, space doesn't have the infrastructure to support three billion humans. While creating the...

We didn't start the fire! The thread's been burning since the world's been turning!

Yes, i have, and the point still stands. And contrary to popular belief, UFC =/= real life. The first hit is rarely a ko hit. The first hit in any sport is rarely a ko hit. You have to follow it up with something else to be of any use. And the average human monkey isn't a UFC OHKO fighter...

s0nystyle, not true all the time. Not even true half the time. What if the person redirects the first punch? What about if the person catches the first punch, or it doesn't connect at all? There's too many caveats still with your rule of "whoever punches first, wins." Not to mention--there...

Not exactly true all the time. There are some martial arts that work better if you are smaller and faster. There's too many caveats to even give a decent answer to this question. To everyone else: fighting isn't like an rpg, where the two people just stand there and exchange punches...

Seriously, what she said. There's too many unarmed fighting styles, too many ways to block, catch a punch, dodge, maim, etc someone in a street fight, assuming they are unarmed. It'll be the person who knows the techniques for incapacitating the target the quickest. Size is irrelevant.

Ok, what's the difference between these three, and how does it appear within an individual.

And you'll cry if you want to? /me slings mud on shoeless.

I'm separating my questions from my response to said questions. Let's get this one started. The purpose of online communities are for people with similar interests to come together and have fun. Whether it be by having engaging conversations on the complex issues of the world, playing an...

About as lighthearted of a title about a subject of some importance. Let's get to the point. What is the purpose of an online forum/community? What is the purpose of a blog/livejournal/whatever, and how is that different from a forum? What is free game in a online community. Or any community...

Similar vein: how can one determine which function(s) are underdeveloped? That aside: Specifically, what does a healthy developed Ti look like in a developed INTP? What does a healthy developed Ne look like in a... get the picture?

Quite simple really. What does a developed, healthy INTP look like In terms of his/her use of his/her functions, and their interactions with the world.

/me rolls up his sleeves... Yes, I am very familiar with several 3d softwares, including that.... bluah, software called blender. I kinda don't like it because the interface really is counterintuitive. Yes most 3d softwares are a clusterfuck of options and controls, but usually they are...
