| Read Today's Daily Prophet: Knights of Walpurgis attack Hogwarts; Belleford steps down as Hogwarts closes until further notice |
| Welcome to Hogwarts Interactive Role Play, one of the net's best in Harry Potter and Hogwarts role plays. We hope you enjoy your visit. Here at Hogwarts our students are currently in their Seventh Year. Last year, the war against the Knights crescendoed into a direct attack against the school. Disappearances are still reported (or not) daily, and the Dark Lord and his Knights of Walpurgis have succeeded in spreading their message of "do as thou will" far and wide across the globe. Magical Law Enforcement, which is now the only authority in the wizarding world under Martial Law, has responded by tightening security, controlling the media, and strictly enforcing curfews and other laws. Their control is damaging to the people's freedom, and their hierarchy is a suspicious lot. It is clear that some members of the MLE like their new found power a bit too much, others see it necessary, but all are in serious danger of being consumed by it. But with the picture of just what Azariah Amaranth is after becoming ever clearer, and a third player in the form of a group called SAVIOR entering the scene, what will the MLE do next to ensure that they've got the situation under control? The Elementium, the Higher Plane that had once been hidden just beyond the veil in the Department of Mysteries, and the Deathly Hallows. The pieces of the puzzle have been identified, but what picture do they make? Today is Day 1 of Year Seven. Students have had time to recover from the Knight's attack, and are beginning to reluctantly return to the walls of Hogwarts. The safety of the school has been diminished, bringing up the question everyone must ask. Are you safe anywhere these days? It's up to each individual to decide their fate, where will you decide to go? You're currently viewing our forum as a guest.

If we see a man glorifying his race, gender, or creed, we can understand there is nothing about himself that deserves glorification.

I have noticed a lack of activity from our dear headmistress and I would like to see her around the castle more often. Perhaps she could even teach a class as well.  EDIT: I have changed the name of the forum to fit more wide spread ideas. The combining years idea has been blown out of the water, so might as well change this to a brainstorming area, eh? |

I had a little idea last night when I was trying to get to sleep. Well, It was - If we needed more classes in the future, which was talked about before, we could little one lesson a schedule classes taught by people such as The Healer and The Librarian., like the Healer teaching Healing and the Librarian teaching something about books. Anyway that was just a small Idea I thought of, if were ever in need of little classes to fill up time/the schedule. |

Hellius, look at the Charms class room. there are three different conversations of roleplaying between 6-7 characters and it's easily gone into three pages meaning that there is pointless back scrolling just to find what the last person said. If anything classes want to be more seggregated so you don't have to do that stuff. What I would like to see as pointed out in the schedule thread by John was the years have classes by houses, similar to what is done in the books. |

I'd personally like to keep the years separate. The movie places tons of students into the school, but in the book there really aren't that many. Take the boys dormitory for example: In Harry's dorm, there's him, Ron, Neville, Dean, and Seamus. If I haven't forgotten any, that's 5 Gryffindor boys in X year. Assuming all the years were something like that, it would be about 35 Gryffindor boys total. Making some more assumptions, that's about 70 per house, about 280 in the school. I think JK even mentions that there's only a couple hundred students at somepoint. So, frankly, it's a really small school, small classes, etc. Joining the years would be too much, too many people, and people may also be left out because of that. In a huge group you can't include everyone, it just doesn't work, that's why smaller groups are better. Another thing, it wouldn't be as much like Hogwarts without different years. I think people who are new to the site, should start as 1st years, unless we need other years. I know High Hogwarts did something like this, and that was an awesome site. They had a certain number of spots available, and people would apply, once those were filled up then that was it. If spots opened up, then people would have another shot at applying. Something like: X 1st years X 2nd years etc, if 1st years was filled up, then people would have to apply for a different year. Another thing. If we were all in one year, what happens when we graduate? Hogwarts just stops existing while we all go to our careers? That wouldn't make sense. Also. Dave, John, could you two cool it? Honestly. Dave, you're rude, I hate reading the things you write, because they're so unnecessarily vulger. And John, well, both of you get fired up way too easily. Cool it, speak civilly or not at all. |

Um, k? So, in all, if there are a numerous amount of 1st years, then John was pissed at me for no apparent reason? And in all, I've already dumped the combining years idea. For a solution to this mess, we should use the system that Gabe devised, unless that would be a "useless waste of time". Or hell, we could do what John suggested. Works for me..., but we need more 'Puffs for second year. |

This site is far from perfect, I mean admins and mods fighting and people attacking each other, as well as the years being un-balanced. From what I've seen in first year, John's annoyed for the same reason, you guys are just wording it differently. You both agree the way to have it is by balance. There aren't many first year Ravenclaws, however, going off at you wasn't appropriate and in the end probably did more harm then good. However, there are like no Ravenclaws to R.P with so he probably just wants balance. I really like Addie's suggestion. That can also be used for the Mods when they are processing applications because it's often a student won't care what house they are in and an Admin will put them in a house that may not be in the greatest need. Hellius is right, there also isn't many Hufflepuff second years. The main reason I'm for keeping the years a part is because thats how it is in the books and I mean I'm a fan of the series because of the books, and the movies which are based on the books. Sort of want the stuff to be relevant. Gabe's idea sounds good but I dunno, it just sounds a bit confusing and complicated. Maybe it's just me. I mean Year level and houses are already splitting characters enough. Everything cool? |

Yeah, dude. Everything is fine with me. To John, if you ever do see this: I personally apologize to you, but I was completely sick of being flamed practically without seeing a reason. As you don't like being insulted, neither do I. However, I do understand that Dave is against you, and how frustrating that can be; but honestly, insulting people generally won't do anything to help. In fact, it would do just the opposite. At this point, I'm just becoming sick of the arguments that are occurring and I would just like it if a compromise could be made between you two. Dave: It's a bit of a double standard that you just hate John practically without reason. I know that he did insult you and all that, but... even still, he tries to help, but it seems like his ideas are thrown down without consideration. John: No one likes being flamed. Whether it be you, me, Dave, or anyone else on the site. It just creates drama, and I don't like it. If you don't like an idea, just say so without going into a whole entire fit about it. Just... cool off a little. Compromise, please? It's becoming a hindrance. |

Agreed! You guys need to deflate your egos. John: Stop being unnecessarily rude when shooting down someones opinion. If you don't like it say it, maybe post another sentence, after that, completely unnecessary. If you want a check, look at the length of other peoples posts. Dave: Everyone else has covered it, why repeat what other people have said. |

Getting back on topic I do not think we have enough students to warrant splitting up year groups by house. Doing so would only lessen the actvity in classes as only few students would attend. But I consider it a given that new students should not be able to join the top year group/s. It is a reward for actually participating. The suggestion of having X number of studnets pert year group is a valid idea. Perhaps at least 5 active students per house per year? Concerning the new abiltiies that are getting discussed, it seems a little odd that every student that passes through Hogwarts has an amazing talent. |

Julie, check the 1st year Charms thread, it's 3 pages long, half with Slytherins and Ravenclaws and another half with Hufflepuff and Gryffindor. Very possible to have 2 classes of that. Given, some of these characters are new and aren't completely active but still. |
