    Question What are your core values?

    A few years back, I found this really cool online core values test. Then I lost the site or it got taken down or something. I still look around to see if I can find it and tonight I fond something close to the old test, so I wish to share it so we can all learn more about each other.

    I was just going to say "don't be a dick." Didn't know there was going to be a test. I'm too tired to have values right now. We'll see about tomorrow.

    I'm not quite sure I did it right, though, since I did this in a hurry and missed the detailed instructions on how to do it and just ranked the things all in order. I'd say the top and bottom three are pretty accurate though, at least. The middle ones are those I've given the least thought in my life, so this ranking may be fairly accurate

    Some of these were very weird to figure out how important they are. Not sure how reliable this is but it's probably there or thereabouts!

    POWER: 2.7
    ACHIEVEMENT: 2.5
    HEDONISM: 5.0
    STIMULATION: 0.6
    SELF-DIRECTION: 5.0
    UNIVERSALISM: 3.1
    BENEVOLENCE: 6.0
    TRADITION: 2.2
    CONFORMITY: 3.7
    SECURITY: 2.4

    I am determined to take great pleasure in being helpful to those I'm in contact with?
