Beatfreak:
is genuinely nice. Low key. Creative. Has many good, creative ideas. But due to the fact that he doesn't like to brag about his achievements, doesn't like to remind everyone all the time that a successful idea was his, some other, more determined people can claim to have had that idea first. But his contributions get noticed by few "important" people, so all of his hard-work doesn't go all unnoticed. Good team-player, because people working with him in the team feel very comfortable. He's not annoying in any sense of the word.
He would be a good friends for someone like himself. But he gets tired of people easily if he spends too much time with them. He's loyal though.
Overall an interesting person definitely. Good and valuable member of ATRL community as well.
Beatfreak tell me what I got right and wrong please.
Next up for me is Sticks. I'll need some time though.
edit: somebody should try Musiclover and BnPac too.

And then he got very close with about 2-3 people and they bonded closely and became real good and close friends. He feels happy when interacting with them.

Ahhh, that's really cute. I'm so happy for him. He deserves it. 
I wanna do another one if that's OK, but what happens if I don't really know the member? How am I then supposed to gather information and lead myself to some sought of conclusion about the subject of the analysis...?

of course thats OK  , thats great actually. I am extremely happy that you got caught up in this. Profiling that you do is so well-organized and thought-through, I applaud you!!! I enjoy reading your descriptions.
I did couple of evaluations even though I had very small pieces of information about the members haven't seen many of their posts. Things you can use for profiling is the avatar, signature, artists the member likes and many other data you can easily find about them.
Who are you thinking to do next?

lmao you're too kind. I actually don't know who I'll go with next. Is there a list to go by or something? Or are we picking members at random?

Well it would be cool to do the people that requested to be profiled in this thread. But if you don't want to profile any of those, feel free to choose anyone you want. I'm sure we don't really need their permission, as I'm sure everyone will enjoy to see what others think about them, plus nobody's claiming to be 100% accurate in their evaluations here.
I'm trying to have fun here. I hope you'll have fun too. Do anything that will maximize your pleasure in this thread

I really don't know how you guys do it! I'm going to try for the man fanoftalent himself.
You're very, very intelligent and you have an obvious interest in psychology. Human behaviour fascinates you and you try to come up with reasons for some people's behaviours, actions and beliefs too. You respect other people's opinions quite a bit and I think you're one of the few people who make it a point to include everybody. No one is ignored and if you had your way, you'd let everybody play rather than letting just the strong players play.

You are smart. You seem to know this. You are a cut above the rest with the style of your postings, grammar, knowledge of the music industry, and you seem to know this as well, however you don't disclose this like other members who try -- in other words, you're very humble.
|
Brilliant, Daniel, and totally true. On the same token, I am always conscious of whether or not I appear arrogant and, as you said, that's not how I want to look. But that still means I think I'm smarter than other people if I'm making an effort not to "appear" that way. So it's a psychological revolving door and I try not to think about it much.

There's something to be said for not saying anything & there's the fact that you stan for Janet Jackson which highlights the love you have in being the underdog; the one who always comes out from behind to win and snatch first place.
|
Yes, whoever is just to the left of the spotlight has always been the one to tug at my heartstrings. I feel guilty if my 'favorite' anything is the #1 in their field. In my opinion, you never really reach #1--you always have to keep going.

Yet you seem to have insecurities about excepting yourself fully as a gay man. You seem to hide behind the wall of your true self. There's something about hiding your feminine side & being yourself around the people you love.
|
Half true. I am not afraid of my sexuality and I have no desire to change myself; I feel that I have accepted who I am. But I am still afraid of what others will think. And even when I come out, I'm not going to be stereotypically feminine--it's just not me.
Quote:
You're not a socialite but you have a small & intimate group of close friends with whom you can talk to and be around. Nevertheless. you're the type of guy that would do anything for a friend, someone who is always there for one another; loyal, faithful, funny & a true pleasure to be around. You're unbiased and always give everyone a fair go (very Australian) and opinion when discussing everyone's fave artists and their achievements or about life in general.
Sorry Eli if this is really inaccurate. I try haha.
|
Right. If there's one aspect of life that I think I could put much more effort into, it's social stuff. I have always let my friends come to me. Rarely do I approach people I don't know. At the same time, though, I wouldn't call myself a wallflower. I am very vocal in class and when somebody does approach me, I engage them in an honest way. And I'm not a loner at all. I love being around people. I have an amazing, close-knit group of friends; there are about 15 of us, and outside of that group there might be a dozen more who I hang out with regularly.
I am VERY loyal, faithful to a fault. I wear my heart on my sleeve, although you would never know. Just last weekend, a few friends took a spontaneous road trip to Wisconsin and they didn't invite me. I was really ticked off. One of them said I didn't ask. Things like that make me angry because I would always include said excluders.
lol, I posted more than you did. I think that means you did a good job. Thanks.

Were you even here back then?  But yeah in freshman & sophomore year, I was lost. I still had my closest middle school friends but I wasn't branching out like most people were. It has been over the past 2 years that I've really found my high school friends, although it's a lot more than 2-3. I DO think I only have 2-3 closest friends.
And as for you. I would never see you as a cold person. You seem like such a sweetheart, and you have a great sense of humor. I'd love to know you.
I'm at school and I really have no time to analyze anyone right now, but I think I want to give it a go later.

I see this thread is getting more popular, well deserved
You are doing a great job fanoftalent 
I see interesting this topic cause I also like to describe people's personalitites for the way they express to others. The 99% of the times I do it without saying to anybody, haha, cause I tend to hurt feelings when I say them, though they are true ¬¬, but I like to analyze them anyway.
I see some people who post here don't know me that well to describe me  . But if anyone wants to describe me, feel free to do it, let's see how it goes

I don't know you either but I'll make an attempt right now to describe you. Could be entirely wrong but whatever...
My psychological portrait of you:
You are an intelligent girl who is probably a little underappreciated by others in real life. You are an open minded person who likes to speak your mind while not hurting anyones feelings at the same time. You have a small but close group of real life friends. Your romatic life is nonexistant, which is not a problem for you because you are waiting for someone to appreciate you for who you are. You have a ton of self-confidence and know that one day you will eventually succeed in all facets of your life but you are not quite sure how that is going to happen.
Right or wrong, I should totally pursue psychology as what I said sounded smart.
(Side note- I thought this was posted like an hour ago but I just left it on my screen for no apparent reason).
|
It sure did sound smart, but sadly all of it is completely wrong. Fanoftalent already got me down to a T. I mean not ask questions about you, but rather have a normal conversation about something random.

So I can edit my post and put the complete opposite of what I said and sound really smart? When I have some time, I'll get to that.
On a side note, at least now I know I'm normal and in no way psychic. I wouldn't want to be that way anyway. I'll stick to letting the "expert" fanoftalent continue to make his psychological portraits. He is pretty good.
.... Time to take a break from surfing the internet and do some actual work that I'm getting paid to do (which is clearly not being a psychologist).

Now remember I am analysing you as the member that I know, you may well be different in real life.
I think that the thing about you that sticks out the most is sadly childishness, in several way's. Firstly in your need to fit in, it comes across that you imitate people who you perceive as popular or cool, in both language and behaviour. Secondly you come across as immature a lot, you don't appear to deal well with being disagreed with and seem to throw sort of online 'tantrums' as I have seen on several occasion, this would tell me that you don't do well with being told what to do, ergo that you don't take instruction well and are not yet mature enough to deal with other people's views and opinions without taking it personally. But don't worry, these qualities will most likely fade with age. You can be overly aggressive, defensive and attempt to be condescending, I would say this is because people bring your age up so much that you almost feel a need to over-compensate and in way fight against what they are saying, you also seem to want to grow up way too fast, often mentioning or even boasting about things someone your age shouldn't be doing. You shouldn't want to grow up too fast, life get's harder the older you get, you will get a lot more respect from people by acting your age rather than trying to act like you are 18, it is the fakery that people dislike. My guess would be that some of this behaviour probably stems from your home-life, perhaps you aren't allowed to be 'yourself' or have very strict rules regarding your behaviour and language, I'd assume that this leads to disagreements with your parents and probably a lot of angst that you take out on people here. I wouldn't say you appear to have had an easy life by any means but I think you deal well with it even if you have a tendency to go overboard with silly things sometimes, it is an outlet.
However, when you aren't trying to impress anyone and in a good mood, you seem to be genuinely a nice kid. You come across as intelligent and believe it or not you can be quite kind. You seem to find it difficult to compliment people but when you do it seems very genuine. You are obviously passionate, here about Beyoncé, and I am sure that you are passionate about things at home, I would say you are stubborn and don't back down easily no matter what the situation. Although you try too hard to impress people, once you are friends with someone you seem to be very loyal, although people you are not close with you turn on very easily even if not provoked.
That's about all I can think of right now, if I think of more I will edit.

I'm nowhere near as scientific or as good at this as Fanoftalent, but I do know you a bit better.
I'm sorry if it upset you
What did I get right? PM if you don't want to say here.
