Hi all,
I have just received the Scholar Status, and am happy to be here. The Research Forum drew my attention due to its no nonsense and hard working foundations. While i do have a project lined up in my mind, i would perhaps prefer to get to know the ropes by participating in one of the ongoing threads (preferably a Level 2 Project).
If there are currently no openings available for my inclusion in any ongoing Research threads, i will be more than happy in describing the project i have in my mind, and hopefully get the ball rolling from there.
Thanks everyone, and i look forward to working with you all in the future,

That sounds like a very interesting Research Project.
Are you forming a team, or tossing it out for a possible topic, and wanting to be team member?
In this forum, Team Leaders recruit Research Participants. Presenting topics need a bit of follow-up. Are you recruiting, or just presenting information for anyone to take on as a Project?

Where were you a few days ago when I was recruiting for my Project? I had no idea you'd be interested in helping revamp the Research Forum.
Typically, once a Research Team is formed, there is no adding new participants. The group is formed until project completion, and it's an obligation to serve until then. However, I would love to add you to my team. Your Project Goal would be to address the Politics of Global Warming, which is an entirely separate area of research in the Global Warming Project. Your responsibilities would be to include aspects of lobbying, corporate circumvention of regulations, countries who don't adhere to UN standards, and why corporate greed is the biggest enemy of protecting the environment.
I cannot add you without Mod approval, but since we are re-working this forum, and need to have flexibility, I will petition a Mod as Team Leader to grant edit time in the OP. If such is granted, I will edit you in, and you will be on the team. I'd prefer for you to be a part of the global warming research, to get your feet wet.
If there are currently no openings available for my inclusion in any ongoing Research threads, i will be more than happy in describing the project i have in my mind, and hopefully get the ball rolling from there.
Thanks everyone, and i look forward to working with you all in the future,

I'm interested in hearing your idea. After this project, I'd gladly join yours, pending the topic.

My project idea revolves around the Freemason - Knights Templar connection. While it is denied outright by Freemasonic historians (i would expect them to deny such things lol), there is some evidence here and there which at least does suggest a connection between the two groups. I was originally going to start a sole thread about it with some sources i dug up myself, but after becoming a scholar, i can see much more value in having other interested members participate in research and discussion surrounding the topic.
Daas.

Oh god I have all of my fathers's old books on the Templar-Freemason connections, he was a Mason and obsessed about it, even if i'm not in the project I can scan pages for you guys if needed.

There is no reason to wait for approval, scholar activities are fully supported and sanctioned within the research forum.

Welcome the Global Warming Project. Time to get your proverbial feet wet. See the link for your Project Goals.
Post when ready, and feel free to ask any questions you may have.

Ah, that is great to know! Thanks for the information
I'm just used to the way things work in the debate forums

Apologies, that's in error - All topics do indeed have to be approved by a staff member, preferably a research forum staff member such as myself, Advisor, Davespanners or Sauron. It's just so we know there's nothing against T&C's going on in here, and all projects are to be formatted correctly and so on and on.
But, given the topic you provided before, It's pretty clear there's nothing nefarious about that at all - topic indeed approved and I look forward to reading and learning from it too!
