Research projects & Scholar titles go hand-in-hand. This quoted section should explain it.
ABOUT ATS: "Writer-Fighter-Scholar" user titles
The Writer-Fighter-Scholar usertitles are for members who participate in 'special' fora;
The title 'Writer' is for those who participate in the Collaborative Fiction/ Short Stories forum.
Writers are selected by forum staff, but you can also send a u2u to 'John Bull 1'.
The title 'Fighter' is reservated for participants of the Debate Forum, and it's regular Debate Tournaments.
To join the Debate Forum, you must challenge a member, and then send a u2u to 'Kano' with a request for a 'Grudge Match', like this one.
Whenever a Debate Tournament is planned, members will be notified by a mass-u2u, or a notification a top of the forum home page.
Last, but not least, the Scholar title is for Researchers in the Research Forum
.
You can participate in the Research forum, by sending a u2u to 'Advisor', with the subject of your research project, or you can be invited to join
one.
