Rules Reminder

FINAL WARNING.
IF ANYMORE SUBSEQUENT INAPPROPRIATE CONTENT CONTINUES WHETHER IT BE ON THIS SITE OR REFERRED/ALLUDED TO OFFSITE:
FIRST - YOU WILL BE SUBJECT TO A 1 WEEK BAN
IF THE BEHAVIOUR CONTINUES THEN ULTIMATELY WILL BE PERMANENT
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. - JUAN

Just want to remind everyone to read the FAQs, especially these topics noted below.
Don't want to hear any excuses, especially most of you have been here for a long time.

Appropriate content
Keep your comments and actions appropriate for all ages. This means watch your language, watch your sexual content, and absolutely, NO CYBERING ANYWHERE ON THE SITE. Owls and dwellings are not excluded from this. If we have evidence, or in some cases even just suspect that you are here only for sexual reasons, you WILL be banned.

Bullying/Harassment
Do not bully/harass someone for how they are roleplaying just because it is not how you RP or how you perceive RP has to be. You are not a RP king/queen and do not have the right to tell someone how to RP or make fun of them for how they choose to RP. As long as their RP partner(s) is fine with how they RP, it is none of your concern. If you do not like how someone RPs, do not RP with them, it is that simple. If you do not like seeing their posts, use the ignore feature.

Spam
Examples of spam:

Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!!!!!!!!!
"*love**love**love**love**love**love*"
"hahahahahahahahahaha"
"pppllleeeaaassseee"
.................
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
iliketowriterunonwordsthatgoonandonforeverandever
Posting one or two lines of a song is alright, posting more is not allowed and considered spam.

Cheating
Trying to hack into the server, trying to crack other user's passwords, or otherwise doing something detrimental to the integrity or security of HL is strictly forbidden. Do not use scripts or bots to automate game tasks as they may burden the server. You must report any bugs or exploits you discover using the Petition for Help link. Using bugs or exploits to improve your stats will result in a temp ban and/or having your account locked. Those who report bug abuse or means of doing may receive a reward.


Alternate characters (alts)
You may have UP TO 4 accounts per IP address. If you decide to make more than that, your highest account(s) will be locked until you are back down to 4 accounts. If you choose to make more than one account, they may not interact with each other. This means no arguing between your accounts, no sending gold or pets from one account to another, no PvPing yourself, etc. Don't create an alt for drama purposes either. If you do, your main may be locked. Also, do NOT refer your own account(s).*** This type of cheating is just in bad taste. Again, we may decide to lock your main account if you do. If you share a computer, Internet connection, or Network with another player we will assume there is only one person at the keyboard and you will be held responsible for all activity that originates from your account or IP address.

***This also includes your "sisters" or "brothers." Only refer people that don't live in your house.

Also, if you suspect someone of being an alt, it's not your duty to announce it in chat or ask them whose alt they are.
It's none of your business. If you know someone to be an alt, keep it to yourself unless you have permission from the person to share that information with others.

(I would like to note that the only foolproof way to keep an alt a secret is to not tell anyone. I don't care if you only tell your BFF- it will get out somehow. )


The full list of rules can be found in the FAQ, located in every village. You may want to take a moment to review those as well, as not knowing them does not excuse you from having to follow them.

Thank you.

Is it a bug (or exploitation) to open one tab for chatting and another for playing? From what I know as long as you don't refresh your chat tab, you can die while playing and continue acting as you were alive.

The chatting aspect is fine, as long as you're not evading a mute.. but if you are doing something that improves game stats, like posted, that would be the problem.

And when a chat is broken, look for a staffer first. Don't start immediately spamming >.>

Thank you very much for posting it here! It took me long enough to search for the rules of this game because of the multiple colors of the web pages.. I couldn't concentrate well. I almost thought there are no rules here! Haha.

denise-- you need to improve your weapon and your armor in order to get into level two. If you don't have enough money, borrow some from the bank.

HI!! I'm excited to be here especially a part of the Gryffindor family. GO LIONS!!! I've always had trouble making friends who love Harry Potter too. I got diagnosed with epilepsy when I was seven years old and I still have a possibility of having them which is better than still having them. Then at age twenty one I got diagnosed with mild depression and anxiety. So I hope to make friends on here to keep me going through school here at Hogwarts. Thank you so much. Can't wait to start classes with my fellow lions.

For all the people that are asking how they can get sorted, there should be a button in the left margin that will direct you to the Sorting Hat, where you can choose your house.

Hope this helps!

I think there should be an age play rule. I noticed in the past people would have characters aged six years old marrying older players..
