I didn't see this in the rules and I can't help but notice that a lot of wolves are being created with the "alpha" role as their desired rank. So I'm wondering... is there/shouldn't there be a rule in place that limits the number of leadership positions one member can hold?
I mean, everybody wants to play an alpha, especially since most site plots involve the pack alphas. So is it really fair, on a site with only 4 packs, that one member can hold two alpha positions and four beta positions? Or something like that. I mean, I'm just making an observation. I know I'm new and have no place to criticize too much. X3 But I'm just saying. Alpha and Beta are extremely important, extremely valuable ranks and I've seen sites actually go dead because all of those ranks are taken/occupied too quickly. So I thought I should bring it up. *shrug*
Also, as a side note, I didn't notice any rules about activity within a pack. I mean... If someone who plays an alpha goes inactive, shouldn't that rank open up? I'm not sure if there was a rule about that (I read the rules quite some time ago so I admit I could just be forgetting. My goodness I have the worst memory span in the world. XD) but it popped into my head while I was typing.
Anyways, just bringing those two things up. I tend to be the person on the forum who constantly pushes the envelope with new ideas so, if I get annoying, feel free to lock a thread or just let me know and I'll shush. X3 I'm not trying to ruffle anyone's feathers or anything.

[/i] a rule for that. We don't want someone to have all the positions because then there's just no point in roleplaying. For that, yes, if the alpha isn't active we would take away the position and let someone else take it. But, seeing as all the other alphas are active, you must be talking about Corrinth. Corrinth is played by Sphinx, who is in the army and can't get on that often. We let him keep that position because he is active when he can be. If the alpha has a reason for inactivity, we don't take away the position. And I understand the memory thing. x] I'm a failure at remembering to check things, so I realized when I read this that another member had had gone for alphess and already had one so I gotta go back and correct that! I usually just expect people to know the rules like that, so...I forget to check. I don't like accepting profiles for that reason! But we at Aelyn love new ideas and anything you have for suggestion we are happy to hear it. :][/size][/color][/ul][/blockquote]

lol I wasn't talking about anyone, I just had a thought about it briefly. X3 I don't like calling people out like that or anything. That draws unnecessary attention and, being a kind of shy person, I don't like to do that to people so... yeah. Wasn't talking about anyone in particular. Just saying. :3
But I'm glad I got all that cleared up. Most sites have rules about this so it's more than likely that I either missed it or read it but can't remember. I don't remember what I had for dinner last night. So it wouldn't surprise me. :3
Thanks for your time.
