Its about how you interact with other people in any environment, RL, on-line or in-game. Average it out over all your person to person interactions.

Well now it's about how many participants it will take to offset my lies...mwahahahahahahahahahah *Cough!*....ha

You score for primary psychopathy was higher than 68.04% of people who have taken this test.

You score for secondary psychopathy was higher than 71.45% of people who have taken this test.


honestly i dont even know how that happened.

i think that what they mean is i'm damn near average... right? 50% is the middle..

... if i answered with my in-game personality traits, would have been drastically different.

I could give you two answers to that.
1. I am honest with the test
2. Any psychopath worth their salt would try and game the test

You can pick the answer you think is the truth.

Scary fact: Its the one's who consider themselves justified in their actions who are the worst sort of psychopath...

Most now a days work for a government in one way, shape or form. (it compounds their evil since now they are acting for a greater number of people; representing them with their actions.)

They consider themselves a 'necessary' evil, which always only turns out being just evil.

(I quite literally see it around me, everyday of my life. Of course, I also live in a government town.)

Hes the guy thats developed the psychopathy checklist used by a lot of psychologists the world over. Hes got at least one book I know of and IM sure you can find other works on his page to look at and study if your REALLY interested in psychopaths..

TED talk on psychopathy

Another good video for the viewing or listening inclined.

You know if your really worried.

Have you heard anything I've said?

You said it's all circling the drain, the whole universe. Right?

That's right.

There you have it. Not all gankers are psychopaths.

Below 50% on both.

Interesting test. From other research-driven personality tests I've had to take in my career/education, this score is *about* right. Though, I do wonder if 26 questions are enough. I prefer tests like these that continue to ask the same general questions in different ways to identify whether you're lying.

I did answer honest to the best of my abilities. I would pay a stupid ammount of money to save my dog.
I had to answer nuetral a few times and I did the extended test.

Primary psychopathy is the affective aspects of psychopathy; a lack of empathy for other people and tolerance for antisocial orientations.
Secondary psychopathy is the antisocial aspects of psychopathy; rule breaking and a lack of effort towards socially rewarded behavior.

You score for primary psychopathy was higher than 41.76% of people who have taken this test.
You score for secondary psychopathy was higher than 81.09% of people who have taken this test.
The second one is probable, the first is unlikely based off RL testing, it would be much lower than that.

Interesting. That was for me.


You score for primary psychopathy was higher than 88.25% of people who have taken this test.

You score for secondary psychopathy was higher than 88.6% of people who have taken this test.

Seems Omar can be a bit of a turd.
Of course, playing a game within it's set guidelines is different from real life behavior.

Huh I'm a weird outlier, I was 60+% higher on primary but only 1.54 % (yes) higher on secondary.

Don't think that such tests mean too much. Especially why investment bankers should be considered bad people?
My scores are:

You score for primary psychopathy was higher than 85.7% of people who have taken this test
You score for secondary psychopathy was higher than 74.89% of people who have taken this test

Does this mean I'm dangerous to the society?
