Re: Indecision 2016

Call it a gut feeling, I have no particular insight to speak of. America got what it wished for. I hope it works out for them, though I'm not holding my...

Re: Durability vs regeneration
Well, shapeshifting doesn't necessarily cause damage exactly, but how is a full-body transformation any different from regeneration? :? I see two ways to do shape shifting: 1) Grow (or generate, not necessarily re-generate) parts (the presumption I have is that if you can generate new parts, for ex...

Re: Durability vs regeneration
Well if you look at the etymology of the word "regenerate", it is re-generate, re (to do something again) and "generate" (to cause the genesis, or creation of something). Healing repairs the damage to something that has already been generated. So regeneration is not really a more...

Re: Durability vs regeneration
Well you two have done a fine job hitting points I would have raised. I will draw a distinction between healing and regeneration. Regeneration is the regrowing and complete restoration of a missing or severely damaged part beyond the realm of healing, while healing is the repair of a damaged part, w...

Re: Werewolf or human?
Agreed, good question. The sensible, level headed, humanitarian/human relations diplomat spin doctor in me says werewolves are humans that have had bad/weird things happen to them. Like having cancer, we don't adopt a new species just because cancer has invaded our body and suddenly start calling ou...

Re: About the "traditional" shifting scene
Hemlock Grove doesn't count, as juicy as the metaphor was, the eyeballs dropping out is pretty much taking the piss, a cheap special effects hack. Not to mention, the transformed werewolf eating all the stuff that fell off, obviously, transparently there only for the gross-out effect. Like the teet...

Ahh, the topic of transformations. Once more into the breech. Teeth: Agreed, teeth falling out is pretty gross, but it happens to all of us once in our lifetime. If we're going non-magical then by god it's deeply rooted in the biology (punned!). Hemlock Grove doesn't count, as juicy as the metaphor ...

Re: Split (2017)
I saw the trailer before, and must admit, I thought of werewolves. I like where this one seems to be going. Even if it isn't (I wouldn't bet on it being a wolf), it does look interesting, which is more than I can say for the majority of movies the past couple of years. I just hope the director doesn...

Re: Forum Restructuring; Adult Content Policy
I've not had time to consider this much, but I'd like to comment on the adult content side of things. I'd suggest a reporting/warning feature (if there isn't already one in place), and some guidelines/rules about appropriateness for comments as well as content. I've had a few comments here that have...

Re: What is a werewolf and their legend? Here you get your answer
then why is it called thepackden? if this is not a real werewolf pack and not even close to being one why isn't it called something else? ?? ?? The metaphor isn't a literal one. The name reflects the theme for a fan site dedicated to werewolves. And while there's arguably a spiritual sense of famil...

Re: "Identity scent" for humans
This might work, but I know only one good way of doing it. Hair of the dog good sir? You'll need a scent extracted from a werewolf, something that cannot be replicated anywhere else by accident. That way there's only three likely outcomes. Either your werewolf meets you. Your werewolf meets another ...

The way I see it, it's still Anthony Brownrigg's baby. It was a bold move, arguably foolish, to put this forum here and consult werewolf fans.
