Group purpose and future topics/projects
10 years ago
First off, I would like to welcome the new members of this group. Thank you very much for being part of this and a special thanks to the members who have been taking part in what I have been posting. Your activity is greatly appreciated.
As for the purpose of this group, well, I am a bored man who has a lot of passion for wolverines and loves to talk about them. This group provides me a medium in which I can share that passion and my knowledge. I am not seeking any fame here, for if I was, my name would be on the front page and let's face it, if I want fame, commissioning porn is the easiest way to achieve that, not running a small group.
I created this group in 2012 along with my now disabled mustelids group with the hopes of being different from other species-related groups here on FA. Instead of just being an icon upon one's page, I desired to create a stronger, more active and more intimate community. I would achieve this by not just favoriting images and revolving around furry smut, but instead by sharing my knowledge and encouraging the group to share their knowledge, stories, pictures, videos and thoughts as well. Sadly, I spent too much time on my mustelid group and let this group just sit. The mustelid group that I spent quite a bit of time on is now disabled, as I found pleasing each mustelid species, keeping things up-to-date and member interests running high simply too great a task for me at the time. This group, being focused upon one species, my species, should be much easier to maintain.
Though I understand that most people on this site are simply seeking art, friends and fame, I do hope that what I post here will at least interest a handful of people and even more importantly, get a few people talking. Though I do plan to seek out and watch new wolverines and also favorite art, I will mainly be focusing upon getting discussions regarding news, science, literature, videos, totems, etc. started, this being the thing that I hope will separate this group from other groups.
Looking forward, here are some topics I would like to cover down the road. A lot of these ideas come from my now defunct mustelids group.
■ Q and A (coming after this journal)
■ More videos for references and amusement (I am also setting up a YouTube channel with my favorite videos)
■ More wolverine-related news regarding sightings, conversation, etc.
■ Wolverine births found in the news or posted to Zooborns
■ The best galleries for wolverine photos
■ The wolverine as a spirit guide / totem animal (in progress)
■ Wolverine musking expanded - new data (in progress)
■ Wolverines in film
■ Wolverines in literature
■ Wolverines in gaming
■ The best sources for wolverine information
I will also continue to update our Wolverine Zoo Listing journal as I come across new exhibits.
Though my old mustelids group had a member listing journal, I will not be creating one here. I felt the member listing to be important to that group because there were so many species being represented among hundreds members. Here, with the group being focused only upon wolverines and made up mainly of wolverines, there is no reason why one cannot use the "Is Watching" list at the bottom of the page. I will be watching wolverines as I find them. Also, another wolverine group already features a listing of wolverines and I do not believe in being redundant.
Feel free to post any thoughts or ideas you may have for content.
Thank you.
