So I know that the Listed Wolves has not been updated yet, but just looking at the activity check can tell you that there is at the very least 40 wolves in WWM. Even if it was equally dividing 10 wolves to each pack and 10 loners, there are still more users and characters joining the site. With this not being liquid time (with the exception of the alpha for accepting) and all these wolves having a choice of only good, evil, or neutral, my biggest concern is that we will lose sight of what makes these pack roleplays so fun. Clearly the alpha and betas of the packs won't be able to thread with every single individual. Even on sites with less characters this its hard, but at this rate there won't be enough ranks to go around, advancing in rank really depends on if you ever even get a chance to rp with the alpha or not. People will get stuck being a generic pack member forever if that happens, and if you are going to be that, you may as well be a rogue because at least you won't have to follow pack rules. So I was thinking up ways this could be remedied:
1. New areas are introduced so the capacity can be much higher per pack + encouraging members to create new packs. As of now, a big reason why there are only 3 packs is because its not appealing to go for a smaller amount of land. It makes your pack seem less significant than the larger ones. Plus, its practically just connected to the bigger lands, so its more like having your own little spot next to the Bleak Bluffs, Sequoia Woods, and Tranquil Meadows.
2.Shift the packs to be more like empires, thus expanding what it means to be a pack member. They can become complex and the alpha is more like a queen or king. The elite are really the ones that are working with wolves going up in rank. This would increase the capacity to grow because as the packs get bigger, more elites can be appointed, and more wolves will have the position to work with other wolves and make them feel like they are contributing something.
I dunno, its just a little thing I was thinking about. What do you think?

The valley is surrounded on all sides by mountains, so there are no oceans nearby, but we'd be happy to make a list of ideas for possible new RP boards.
