Hi BlueVortex,

Welcome to the Nexus. 

Not much I can add to what is here other than check the links in the upper right hand corner of your forum for invaluable information, including the wiki link which has extraction teks.

Also, you mentioned a desire for full membership.  Though you are a New Member and restricted to posting in the welcome and collaborative research areas, just log on and you can see the entire contents of all the other forums.

The path to promotion to full membership basically just involves posting and being yourself, giving the mods a chance to get to know you and understand that you understand the rules and culture here.  There is no equation for promotion beyond that.  No minimal number of posts or minimal time period to qualify (such as on other forums).  This place is different.

You sound like a deep being who will most likely find many friends and places here that encourage you to stay.  At least I hope so and again, I welcome you.
