First and foremost, before you ask a question in this thread, please be sure you've read through the The SS Board Rules and FAQ to make sure your question hasn't already been answered.
Other frequently asked questions can be found in this and other posts in this thread. Make sure you give this thread a quick browse before asking your question to make sure it hasn't already been answered. It can get tedious answering the same questions over and over and you never know what other things you might find out during your browse. I try very hard to clean this thread out every so often so you only have a couple pages to skim through.
To make it easier for you to find the answers to your questions, we've broken up the Rules and FAQ into several sections which I've listed below. There is no reason for you to repeat any questions that have already been answered.

One of the common questions we see in this thread, over and over and over, despite the fact that the answer is easily found in the FAQ through the above links is: "I posted a thread in ____ forum and it disappeared. What happened?" The answer to this question is that in many forums, threads need to be approved by moderators BEFORE they appear in the forum. You even get a nifty message after you post the thread telling you this but, I guess people don't really notice it or read what it says. For future reference, I've listed the forums where you currently need to have your threads approved:

Forums Requiring Thread Approval
(Please be patient with the moderators, it could take up to 24 hours to approve your thread. If it isn't approved by then, you can PM one of the mods for that forum to check on the status of the validation or ask why it wasn't approved. Mods will not contact you when your thread is approved/disapproved.)

Some people are unable to access the links in the Sections tab at the top of the screen. Unfortunately, this is a glitch that affects some people and it's javascript related. We haven't been able to fix this problem and there are a few places which only have easy access through the Sections tab. Here are those links:
SS Chatroom SS Howarts RPG SS Calendar SS Member List The dates for the next sorting, Hogwarts Express, start of term, final exams, end of term, etc can be found on the front page in the School RPG block toward the bottom with the house points counter.
If you couldn't find the answer to your question in the
Rules and FAQ (shortcuts to the various sections are listed above), you may post your answer in here for a
staff member to answer.
If you ask a question that has already been answered, your post will be deleted and your question left unanswered. If you can't be bothered to read the faq and other posts in this forum, we can't be bothered to answer you.
Please do NOT answer questions if you are not a member of the Snitchseeker Staff Team.
