Like anything new in the community many will have misconceptions regarding the status and motives of such a project and rightly so. IPI is not a paranormal investigation team and has no say over how its members investigate; IPI also has no desire to tell groups what protocols to use. This is all up to those who run their own teams and joining IPI does not change this. The direction of IPI is also worked on by all the teams who take part; its you who decide what will benefit the community and its you that will work with others to see this put into place. IPI is a joint effort from all, although there are coordinators in place we need all of you to work together to progress the organization that in turn will improve the paranormal community.
The paranormal community is not an easy place to work in as I'm sure many will know. Whether its due to group politics, turf wars or investigators who just need to open better communications locally; IPI are here to help. We aim to provide a full online site where everyone can meet up and discuss all things paranormal, work through problems and even improve with countless documentation along with links to everything needed to raise the standard of you or your groups research. Already this is in place and accessible by all and its all free. No need to pay for training with IPI as everything you need is there at a touch of a button.

What we don't do
*Show any favoritism to organizations or Investigators no matter what their
status.
*Merge teams or trying to create a huge investigation team. IPI is yours not
yours IPI's.
*Allow bashing of any teams or investigators on our forum boards or by our members;
negativity breeds negativity and we are trying to cut it out in the community.
*Try and make money or trying to be famous by creating IPI; this is solely for
the community and the teams who have signed up to help. This is about pure research
and improving how we look to our fellow teams; the general public whom need
our help and the scientific community who we need onside.
*Take sides in arguments; we will try and help resolve them though with the
help of all groups who wish to offer advice.
*Get involved in petty disputes or rise to any criticism of IPI or its members.
We ignore such things and will continue to work for the community no matter
what situations arise. We are here for the long haul as we believe in what we
are doing. If trying to improve the community upsets others then so be it; many
teams are fighting back for the cause and getting back to what we are here for.
We do not force people to join us nor are we upset if some don't wish to work
for the community. You can't access the vast amount of data and help from IPI
though if you won't work to improve the community. It's a sharing network; the
way it should be.
The above will be updated regular as many new teams and independent investigators join to help IPI and put their views forward. This is a progressing organization network that will move with the times; science evolves and so will the paranormal community with the help of IPI. We are new to the world paranormal community and this project will need time to grow with your help. If you have any questions regarding IPI please feel free to contact anyone involved.
The feedback that we have had regarding IPI has all been very positive; people love the site and the fundamentals of this organization network. IPI is the fastest growing project in the paranormal community today which tells us that its long overdue. As long as everyone does not lose sight in what we are doing here we expect IPI to be the place to improve the community and rise to a level never seen before. All the problems will be left behind by a huge percentage of the community's investigators and we should see the same percentage all working at a similar level of research that is a fantastic for all.
The future of the paranormal community looks very bright thanks to all those giving some time to help others at IPI.
