| - The original incarnation of the site was a directory of weres' (Therians'), where users could create a profile and share information about themselves such as interests and hobbies, religion or spirituality, and contact information among other details. Users were also encouraged to fill out a "WereCard" which was an account of the different aspects of an individuals personal therianthropy. In the members area of the site, users had access to an interactive map that showed the approximate locations of Therians from all over the world. Though there was no forum at this time, there was a guestbook section referred to as "The Tracks" where users were encouraged to share real world meets (or Howls) that they were planning, or for general shout out purposes. In this era Werelist's main mission was to connect Therians to one and other on a local level by facilitating face to face meetings, and also served as a launching pad for online interactions between individual Therians generally conducted via 3rd party chat services such as IRC, ICQ, AIM, Yahoo and MSN. In the latter part of 2005 Coyote Osborn was hard at work laying the foundations for Werelist's second incarnation. In late November / early December of 2005 the new site was on the verge of launch with Coyote providing regular updates on its progress.[1] The new Werelist went online December 6th 2005, and marked the birth of the discussion forum format for Werelist that we are familiar with today. Overall the changes were well received; by transitioning to a forum architecture, Werelist was providing a venue for more lengthy and well moderated group discussions of therianthropy, which was in contrast to the largely unmoderated AHWW which had at this point been largely abandoned to the trolls. However some did feel the original werelist provided some value that the new site was lacking; mainly that the original directory style werelist was optimal for cross referencing different traits between individual therians, and being able to easily find other users by geographic location. Some users felt the new site did not have the same ease of use as the original directory had provided.
