I agree with Khlai, just letting anyone create a coven is a bad idea, however I do have a lack of confidence in Pet's judgment on who would be "worthy" (for lack of a better word) to create a coven. I say this site should have a council of sorts on it, and when one desires to make a coven, they submit it to the council which debates on it, so far you have the decision making left up to one man, I do not think that is best but then again that is just my personal opinion.
As for my old coven, I am on the council in another coven which is proving to be enough for me at this time, I realize I should have picked a different name for my coven but didn't think of it then, I have a website for those who were on there which were loyal, so I am content.
I agree with Klaihi as well. But there were covens of which you don't and shouldn't exactly "know your stuff". Such as The First Path, a great coven for beginners unfortunately no longer with us but you get the point.
But I couldn't help but look at your coven, Lord.
And it's funny, I remember when that coven just started out and the founder wasn't too serious about running one. Now, I'm glad to see it seems to be turning out quite well. And congrats on making council... ^_^
I am still awaiting Michaella's comment on her coven. I originally posted this up to aid my friends lol... and also to stress my own point that anyone who wants to create a coven ought to have the option to step up and prove to the mods that they are serious practioners and not roleplayers by messaging them a summary of what their coven is about and what they teach there. I think that point sums up what I want to say.
Well my coven had been about the dark arts and such, my biggest regret was the name, then again when I first joined this site I was somewhat confused, long story short, I acted on impulse and didn't think things through that well, got alot of flak for it too, insulted and called a roleplayer and all, which I was not and still am not, I know now that I should have kept 80% of my beliefs and information to myself, but heh, live and learn.
It was still one of the biggest learning curves I've been through in a long time, and besides, I no longer get the flak anymore, and am more the way I used to be a long time ago, keeping to myself and only talking about certain things to friends.
Also, thanks Britty, I have high hopes for the coven Darkness Rising.
*Keeps wandering why everyone gives their opinion when it isn't called for* hmm, we are such curious creatures we even take chances when we know what will happen even being not so good.
It seems we often talk about things we know as if we need clarification. Such as Raven giving his very agreeable opinion on the coven creation or Ivan giving his ideas though we are all sure Pet would rather watch the sunday game than take it into account... my point is, this is a pointless conversation but I know that my reasons for staying in it is because I love to argue and discuss. No matter the subject, I'll talk about it as long as I know a bit about it.
Now my reasoning for this is those of you who have higher levels of thinking and I know you from the others from instances of speaking with you in the past will get a little giggle from this and hey, I always did love lightening up the serious mood with a bit of random philosophy.
Now chillins, tell aunty Britty your opinions so she can argue with you. ;)
As I stated earlier, I write this to voice my opinion about this website but not to insult anyone in anyway. It doesn't matter if someone didn't ask for this opinion- I am stating my opinion to see what others might think of my suggestion whether it be positive or negative... and then, of course, I reply.
