The Lost Valley of The Wolves

I just finished creating my forum. What do you think of it?

Greetings,

I'm going to start by saying I hope you are working on your own personal theme. While Jen makes excellent skins I strongly urge everyone to use them as a stepping stone to there own theme. Pre-made skins are excellent in that they allow you to see what you want in a skin, but if you want to stand out in the Wolf RPG's you need to be as different as you can, and premade skins definitely slow you down on that front.

I see you have an information that includes a kinda plot, that describes the scenery and reason behind the fictional Lost Valley. I don't foresee any reason to have humans even mentioned in the world unless you have some secret reason behind it, if not I would give a safer bet that the RP takes place somewhere protected not just by humans but by Native Americans who protected the land as holy since the large congregation of wolf and if you want to eventually stir the pot by bringing in Lewis and Clark in discovering the valley and making it there own. It would make for some fun if the valley ever slowed down.

Continuing on the plot, are there set packs of families? Like a Moon one versus the snow one or something? Many sites like to create two large clans/factions/armies that fight in a central war so that members immediately have people to RP with whether they be ally or enemy. On the note of "Packs" whats the difference between Family Packs and Traditional? From the outside looking it, it appears the family pack is a subset within the Traditional in that they need to be protected since they lack the large structure from the Traditional.

To add a few things I like, I would definitely put how your organized the valley into three easy to identity locations. Many people simply put the names of cities or locations with no indicator of where it actually is, if you have time or any interest I would definitely recommend putting in a map to help give more information. 

Fix:

So reading the boards you have I see the names of Packs but no descriptions, I would like no know more about the Blood Moon pack and the Midnight Pack. What makes them so different? Who are they and why are they fighting (I'd assume they are)?


Also I can't talk in your cbox in the off chance I was a guest looking for quick answers. If I cant ask a question easy I'm more than likely to leave the wait for an answer.

The large traditional packs have descriptions in their boards, but I'll move them so it's easier to see. I'll look into the cbox. The family packs are separate from the traditional packs. There are no family packs yet, I'd like for them to be made by the players. The larger, traditional packs do fight from time to time, but are more likely to pick on the family packs. The advantage to family packs because they are small, they don't have to hunt as much, and can survive in smaller territories. They aren't protected by the traditional packs at all, nor are they part of the traditional packs. I'll clear that up.

As for the theme, I'm not the best at coding as of yet, so once I've gotten better I will make my own.

Thank you for this! It helps a ton!

Personally I would recommend using a colour scheme that contrasts a little bit more between the words and the background as the current colour scheme is so muted/dim its a strain on the eyes.
