I'm just going to play devil's advocate for a moment then!

if we remove the restriction for wild fauna, and allow them to participate, then we are hands off on wild fauna.  If you want pack meetings to remain amongst pack only, you'll need to mark them private, because birds will be able to hop in with no repercussions.  Smaller wild fauna (I am aware larger ones are similar to wolves!) will also be able to trespass and gain information (and kickstart conflict) with few repercussions as well.  And Wild fauna will be able to participate entirely in war plots without restriction.

Things like "unfairly" allow us and members to interpret the rule on a case by case basis.  If we remove this restriction, then no matter what, wild fauna participation in wars will be allowed and valid.  I don't feel comfortable addressing rules and enforcing restrictions that don't exist in the guidebook for players to reference.

im not against changing the wording to better indicate the "unfairly" is on both, but if we did remove it entirely, it would be on members to work out amongst themselves how WF work.  We'd no longer have any hand in it to prevent meta gaming.  If the character joins a thread, they gain whatever they gain, and packs would be able to ally with any number of wf they choose.

obligatory mention of my tone possibly not coming off the right way apologies in advance 

why is the knee jerk reaction to just go hands off completely? There is absolutely a happy medium here and it shouldn't be left _entirely_ up to members on how something is handled, especially if can disrupt game play. I 100% agree with previous mentions of lifting such heavy restrictions from WF characters but I'd DONT think that the CMs should resort to a hands off approach. It doesn't have to be all in for either solution. Like I said, maybe a happy medium? I'm not sure what that would look like (brain is dead from work) but I'm sure something could be proposed.
