Hogwarts Live Blog

Please accept my deepest apologies for the site being down for the greater part of February 1, 2005. It was down because the data from the old server was being transferred to the new one and that is a very timely process when you are dealing with gigabytes of information. Anyway, everything is up and running now and a lot faster than it did before I might add! Enjoy the absence of lag while it lasts!

And remember to check out: http://www.usharrypotter.com

http://www.usharrypotter.com is now available for public viewing. It is not finished so I need all the input and suggestions I can get!

Part of the reason a lot of people have been getting stuck is because of the houses. I removed them so that I can work out some bugs. Please do not owl/petition admins with problems like "where did something go?", if you get stuck make sure to tell us where you were right before you got stuck.

Thanks.

Please check out the http://www.usharrypotter.com/jobs for job openings relating to my new Harry Potter fan-site!

Okay, all of you who have applied for jobs and still haven't been accepted the problem is right now there is no automatic way to accept you so I have to do it manually and that would take way too much of my time. I'm going to edit the code later on so that I can approve all the applications at once, so please stop owling us about not being hired yet. Thanks!

Myself and a couple other members of the staff will be on vacation this Christmas season. I personally will be absent from December 24 to January 4, but I will probably have chances to get online while I am in California. This is just a warning to let you know that your questions might be answered slower, so please use the Forum before sending a petition, as someone else may be able to assist you with your problems.

Do we keep these three new modifications? Vote here and post your comments in the forums, suggestions to improve these functions will be appreciated!
