Trying to answer these questions as they come, and hopefully clear this up 100%
1. Asking first is what the Pack Application is for –once you meet the minimum requirements (30 days longevity/50 posts), send the Pack Application in. This is done so that no unnecessary work needs to be voided/invalidated on the potential leader’s behalf – once you are green-lit, you can start the real work of formation threads.
2. The number of packs is situationally based (and closure of new packs is usually member/feedback driven) – if we do not have pack formations open, we will tell you. It will be announced in our Announcements and, will also be denoted in our Pack Creation GB.
3. WOLF has had closed pack applications in the past. When this happened, as above, it was announced in Announcements and mentioned in the GB that new pack formation was closed. You wouldn’t be able to miss it ;)
4. Regarding what to do following a red light: wait the 30 days, and apply again. Remember you cannot make threads that go towards your “formation threads” until you are Green-lit. You can continue to collect members as an unofficial group but none of those threads will count towards formation. Any thread made before you are Green Lit does not count towards the ten Formation Threads required.
5. The redlight for Shadewood Keep was due to the fact 10 formation threads were included in the PM, therefore, skipping the critical step of gaining CM approval first. Following our GB, any pack red-lit must wait 30 days to reapply – hence the 30 day restriction placed on SK’s formation.
6. The thirty day rule became a rule on WOLF because of member feedback. Too many flash-in-the-pan packs that disbanded shortly after settlement, making more work for both players and CMs oocly and causing a lot of OOC headache. Thirty days is enough time for leaders to establish longevity, collect more unofficial members, and also gives plenty of time for them to fix anything within their pack application that needs adjustment.
7. There are no requirements for Unofficial Groups. We do not police or monitor them, and we do not OOCly denote them by making new titles on WOLF. Unofficial groups are free to do whatever IC, they just will not be recognized as an official group until they complete, step-by-step our Pack Formation process which is outlined in the GB.

now the wren has gone to roost and the sky is turning gold,
and like the sky, my soul is also turning.
and like the sky, my soul is also turning.
