Why do introverted types earn more credits?

After studying our community's credit leaderboards, I noticed an undeniable trend: introverts earn more credits.

I have my own theories about why this is, but I'd like to give you a chance to weigh in.

The forum is perhaps not the epitome of a balanced Introvert:Extravert ratio.

I'd like to let you in on the goings-on within the Rothschild foundation to explain the reason for this, but that information is currently classified. I cannot disclose the details of our master plan.

I don't have that many credits. I also don't hang out here for prolonged periods of time, and consequently it's harder for me to get to know/interact with others.

So for me, maybe the system works?

Have you considered that you may just be an extravert? :shrug:

Nope. Never occurred to me that I should consider all possibilities of type theory in application to myself for best personal growth and understanding. Not once.

Well, uh, I don't mean to nitpick or anything, but this may explain your credit deficit. I don't know if you've been following the leaderboards but, uh, I'm kind of a big deal. :peepwall:

INFJs are supposedly the most extraverted of the introverted types, so this isn't entirely surprising.

Do you think this may serve as a suitable explanation for your own lack of credits? :greatscott:

Actually, yes. I had some doubts about my auxiliary Fe before my recent bout of philanthropy.

We gotta pump you back up again soon lest I lose my motivation to maximize my earning potential.

We have leaderboards?! Wow, I better step up my game.

Is there actually a link between extroversion and not getting that many credits? I can understand why my chosen typing could seem absurd for most people initially, but still.

I'm online a lot...just not here very consistently. :ninja:

I fear the system is near-perfect... our forum leaders will most probably remain our forum leaders for the foreseeable future.

I'll be keeping a notebook of worthy thread ideas with me at all times, though.

Well, to put things simply, 7/10 of the TypeC Top Ten are of the introverted variety, and the 3 extroverts that made it into the list are either ambiverted or are questioning their extroversion. Not only that, but none of the three managed to procure the totality of their credits through legitimate means. Perhaps this warrants a new thread: Why do extroverted types break the law?

Oooohh, and we can see how people earned their credits? That is interesting. Where do we view these fascinating numbers?

My credit count just bumped up by +30 all of a sudden. Maybe I shed a few introverted hairs onto my keyboard or something.

Congratulations on your newfound wealth, may you invest it wisely. If you hit the "Transactions" tab up in between the Blogs and FAQ tab you'll be able to view the leaderboard, but unfortunately mods are the only people able to view how others got their credits. The only reason I am aware of the despicable sources of extraverted members' credits is due to my knowledge of the shady backroom dealings of some of these credit cockroaches.

Better not rat on 'em, someone might order a hit on you.

And thanks!
