Questions and Answers

[Mistress Vondella]

• Try to read all the information before asking any questions.
• Any questions you may have should be posted here.
• Follow the rules, or the posts will be deleted.

If you have any questions about the rules or site related issues, please ask it here. We're here to help you with the site, not your life, not Harry Potter, and not anything else ok? For graphics-related help, go to the Questions & FAQ thread in Madam Malkin's. Also check the Prefects' Office if you are not a Newbie and need help.

If you know the answer to a newbie's question, feel free to answer it, but anyone who replies in a non-friendly way in here will most likely be punished.

Also, don't pretend to ask something just so it looks like you're not spamming out of the Newbie Hut. It's selfish, takes up other people's time and will result in a big, ugly, scary PM from one of us telling you off.

Thanks

I don't think Minisytry are being accpeted yet. We'll have to wait until the Ministry opens and see if they will be added. That decision is up to the admins.

The Ministry of Magic is accepting applications. (Go to the thread that says "Ministry of Magic Employees Needed!" in the Latest Site News section. After a day or two, you will recieve a PM from the Departent Head of the departent that fits your MoM character best. In this PM, it will include a little 'badge' of the Departent you are in for you to use if you choose to.

Cristy: I know, she was talking about Ministry tags.

If you wish to have a signature (A graphic) of your character with the Department you are in, go to Madame Malkin's and request a signature.

You will not get a tag (The things on the uername side of your post) for being in the Ministry RPG, you can let other people know through you profile, signature, avatar, ect.

I've been seeing the acronym, SS, a lot lately. What does that stand for? lmao! just kidding.

Serious question: Will there be something similar to a feast once the MoM is up? (Ministry charries)

I am not sure. No one but the Ministry of Magic Department Heads and Division Heads know what will be going on. We'll just have to wait and see.

[Japanese Wizard]

Im a Division head and I have no idea whats going on, 'cept for the fact that MoM opens on Wednesday...

Can the MoM connect with the school RPG?

For example, I'm the Division head for Apparition Test Center, and some students want to get an apparition license. I'm the one who needs to teach them so I need to go over there. Will they have those sort of things?

Not many people on the site know what our wonderful admins are planning. I think that the best person to ask these questions is Biochemkris. She's the mastermind behind the MoM. But other than that, we really aren't sure yet. I think we all need to wait and see.

Referrals means how many people you have reffered to this site

When they join there is a place where you can put "So-and-so" have reffered me to this site". So if you have reffered one person then it should read "referals: 1"

Does that explain your question?

[Japanese Wizard]

Yup. But what's the point of having it? what will it do, like will you have a reward n all? (not that I care )

Well I dont think you will get an award (Maybe PM an admin about it )

But its there to show how many people you have reffered

Its just a feature I think

Just edit the second post to say something like, "Double post, please delete." Someone will see it and delete it.

How do I take the ollivander's wand quiz? I can't find it anywhere....

The Ollivander's wand quiz was only available in Diagon Alley which is closed. You'll have to wait until it opens again during the next sorting period. In the meantime, if you are going to RP, just make up your own wand.

It says on the guidelines that you can play games. Um, I know this is stupid, but where are the games and how do you play them?

That's a good question, actually!

Once you become a member (with 10 posts or more and your user name has turned to turquoise), you will be able to play more games than you could probably imagine in our section known as Weasley's Wizarding Wheezes. I'm sure you will be able to find something you like there.

Have fun!

Hey! I was wondering whether I could answer some of the questions people ask here? I'm not really a mod but...
