Hogwarts Live Blog

We are no longer choosing Prefects from each House. We have a new idea to use instead and we will announce it once the module has been completed.

Let's get the HogwartsLive page it's own vanity url on facebook while we are at it!

The page currently has 81 fans, let's get it to 100 shall we?

UPDATE:
We did it! http://www.facebook.com/HogwartsLive

If you get stuck in a bad nav, please PETITION and TELL US you are stuck.

Only a certain few of us can fix the bad navs and when you petition, they will get fixed faster. ONE petition is enough to let us know that you are stuck.

Do not get your friends to petition if you are stuck.

Do not owl staffers if you are stuck.

Do not get your friends to owl staffers if you are stuck.

Do not IM staffers if you are stuck.

Do not get your friends to IM staffers if you are stuck.

Once again, PETITION (ONE TIME!!) if you are stuck in a badnav. We will unstick you as soon as we are here to see the petition.

Thank you and have a nice day.

Headmaster: Please stop hitting refresh it doesn't work on this website. Don't hit other shortcut keys while a page is loading; just wait for it to load. Don't click on other links after you've already clicked on something--wait for the current page to load first. If you do this you want have to worry so much about getting badnavs. Thanks, Danilo.

On May 31st, during the MTV Movie Awards(which begin at 9PM EST) a never-before-seen clip from Harry Potter and the Half Blood prince will be presented via telecast from England by Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint.

New featurette for HP and the Half-Blood Prince.

I'd like to remind everyone of the "No Cyber Bullying" rule, being some of you forgot it or choose to ignore the part of it that says " Personal attacks(bringing someones real life into it) and insulting remarks should be kept off the public channels such as the forums and the chats. It is preferable that you keep arguments off the site or ignore players that irritate you." The insulting remarks NOT RP related have got way out of hand as of late and need to be stopped. You may have slipped under the radar and got away with them before, but now you won't. There is a line between RP and personal insults, some of you need to take time and discover that line.

Just because one person is doing it doesn't mean its ok and that you should jump on the bandwagon and do it too.

I'd also like to remind every that staff disrespect in chat is not allowed, being some seem to have forgotten that also.

Edit: If you have petitioned about bad navs, and your navs fix themselves before any staff get to it please petition back telling us. Thanks.

This is a friendly reminder to all of you that think they can create another site like this one:

Do NOT come here and owl other players telling them to go check out your site, or so-and-so needs some help, or spread the word!, or it's JUST like OLD HL!

It's advertising, it's against the rules and you WILL be banned.
Permanently.

We have no problem banning those of you who are choosing to advertise other sites in protest to the punishment that others have been given because they could not follow the rules.

Interested in earning donator points without donating?

I have a list of actions you can complete for donator points.

Each action is really simple and only requires a short amount of time.

All actions are free and most are as easy as filling out and submitting a short form.

If you are interested email me at

I will send you a list of actions/activities you can complete in exchange for donator points.

Don't hesitate, these are really straightforward tasks and I just need a lot of people to do them hence why I'm giving away lots of donator points!

If you do enough of these tasks there's even the possibly of earning a title change. ^_^

UDPATE: The directions don't fit in owls so please just email me that way I can send you the full directions. Anyone I owled the directions to needs to email me to get the full details.

Dear HLer's from AislingBlack:
My family and I would like to express our deepest gratitude to everyone that showed their love and concern for my beautiful niece, Mikyla. If some of you don't remember or know the situation, Mikyla is 5 months old now but when she was 4 months old, we learned that she had two holes in her heart and a pinched aorta. She was hospitalized to fix the pinched aorta but during surgery, she flatlined. (Code Blue) They bought her back and since then she had to spend several weeks in Riley's Hospital in Indianapolis, Indiana. About two weeks ago, Mikyla was released with some restrictions of having to use a feeding tube. I would like to report that, my Meke is doing GREAT! She started taking her bottles on her own shortly after she returned home. When I finally met her on Easter Weekend, she didn't have the feeding tube because she was playing with it and pulling it out instead of using it. She takes her medications through a bottle nipple and growing. She started gaining weight again; going from 7 pounds and 2 ounces to 8 pounds and 8 ounces. She is so tiny but so strong. When she grabs your finger, you can feel her strength. When I was up north, I remember that Meke did not sleep more than thirty minutes on three different occasion. (One time falling asleep in my arms, aww's) She didn't want to miss anything. I still hear that she is thriving. Attached is a Photoshopped picture of just her and of me holding her. (I had to wear latex gloves and a mask for safety reason since I was getting over Shingles.) Meke has her heart surgery still coming up but I know she will make a full recovery and be the best flower girl an aunt could ask for. I will keep everyone updated as I know something or you can go to her site and read her journals.
