So, to start off I could not decide whether to put this in the Aliens & UFO, Paranormal Studies, or Off-Topic's General Chit Chat forum. Mods, please
do your dirty work that I fail to accurately execute (sometimes). Thanks!
Now, everyone always makes a big hub-bub about various groups of paranormal investigators (on TV anyways) being awful and fake. This is not really
what this thread is about, but more so constructing a bigger and better team. I really do not know if this is a good idea, but I've pondered it a LOT
in the previous months. Being a huge fanatic of Ghostbusters does not help either.
Basically, a giant team of paranormal investigators (not dissimilar to the size of a police force or two) spread across various counties and have
several HQ's (again similar to the police) where they have various "ready-to-respond" investigators and researchers. The organization would have all
the typical equipment used to do their research in the field and in the HQ, and basically be able to go anywhere at a moments notice.
If anyone is still reading down to this far,
I would like to explain the part I mentioned about putting this thread in the UFO section. See,
instead of being restricted to researching paranormal (as in spirits) this large team of researchers could also respond immediately to UFO and ET
reports. I see this being a good and a bad idea. First off, a bad idea because of pranks and such...that's never fun...but a good idea due to the fact
that there would actually be
someone to respond to these UFO sightings where no one turns up any pics or anything. If we had this team of
professionals...it might make it easier to snuff out hoaxes.
Furthermore, this group might also research things like bigfoot, mothman, chupacabra, etc. Sadly, I know what at least some of you are thinking. And I
agree...This is an awful idea and I should probably be burnt at the stake for even thinking of such a thing. Well, I know...I've thought about that a
bunch of times. Then again, there are my moments where I think it might not be a really bad idea. Please let me know what you think of it. It almost
seems like it might be a mobile group of ATS researchers
Also, try and take it a little easy on me if you think this is just an
awful
idea...because I already have my doubts. Just figured I'd let ATS know about my idea and see what you all think about it.
I also have a name for it. The Cydonian Society or Cydonian Research Society. Cydonia is the Greek Goddess of heroic endeavor. I figured it might be a
fitting name, plus I do really like the name "Cydonia". Plus it fits in with the whole region of Mars thing
Again, let me know what you all think please. Sorry if it's in the wrong section of ATS.

add some words here and there
Also, if you have questions feel free to ask. I will try and answer any that you have, I have this thought out pretty well but there are still some
holes that need filled in. I can post more tomorrow on the idea if it goes that far and people are interested enough.
