But now that you're here, what made YOU sign up? Let us know what it was that attracted you to SnitchSeeker and made you want to become a member. Why this site and not another Harry Potter site?

Waaaaay back in 2011, I joined Snitchseeker because of the hype with Pottermore. Back then, I was looking for another Potter site as an outlet cos Pottermore only had the first book interactive experience available and I finished that one in a day And now I'm here!

Waaaayyyy back in 2003 the movies and films were still being released and this was the place to be for all of the news updates.
The Knockturn Alley forum and Fanfiction Forum were reasons 2 and 3 - then it just .... evolved.

I joined when I was 13 back in 2011!
Initially, I was just interested in diving deeper in the world of Harry Potter and finding people who loved it as much as I did. It was before the final Deathy Hallows film came out and I remember the hype surrounding that! In the end, though, it was the RPG that got me hooked, as well as the lovely community of HP fans I have met onsite. |

I joined way back 2011, on my mother's birthday actually. I remember it was near the end of the day and I had just finished reading the only HP books I had that time (I think only four, so until GoF). So I chanced the internet for some fanfiction and it brought me here. Coincidentally, the sorting happened a few days after I think so I jumped into the RPG (it was my first time) and it turned out to be a really fun and exciting experience. I also made some very smart and creative friends out of the members so since then SS has always held a special place in my heart even if I have a tendency to disappear from time to time. Lol.

I just joined, and to be honest it is the first time I've heard about the website.
I was feeling nostalgic regarding to the old foruns in warner bros website, and wanted to relive those feelings I had back in 2005, 2006 |

I joined because I was looking for a site where I could discuss all things Potter with people who are also hooked on the Potterverse. I also wanted to catch up on news about my favorite actors/actresses as well. |

I joined while making an OC for another site...then saw all of the content.
THEN saw that there's an RPG community here as well. That sold it for me.
But now that I'm here, I'm seeing so much more! <3

I used to be big on messages boards years ago met fantastic people.
Even had a a couple of boards over the years.
I thought I would get back into the boards and I have never been on a hp board before.
This board has it all and I can’t wait to get to know everyone.

I joined the community in order to discuss HP world with people and chat with them. I don't have many friends in real life to share thoughts with, so here it comes.

One of my best friends showed me SnitchSeeker back in 2010. I thought it was so cool, and I loved the Hogwarts RPG! I also thought it was so neat to have such a friendly community of HP fans. I forgot about the forum until just recently, so I decided to join in on the fun! As a writer, I'm really looking forward to joining in the different RPGs here. I'm also stoked to meet some new Harry Potter loving friends!

I'm missing a forum I used to be a part of. I don't know what happened to it, I took a 2.5 year hiatus from it due to having my daughter and wanted to get back on only to find that it's not there anymore!! Anyways, hoping I'll have the same experience here and looking forward to meeting people... and that's why I joined SnitchSeeker. |

I'm mostly here for the RPG which looks like it would be a lot of fun, but also definitely going to enjoy reading (and maybe posting? We'll see...) fanfiction and be part of a community that really enjoys Harry Potter.

Part of the reason I wanted to join this community is that I need some feedback from my fellow Potterheads about my Harry Potter Youtube channel.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Addison Ayers First Year | I originally signed up in 2011 as it says. I had found another site that offered RP opportunities and I had never even realized that it existed! After a fairly extensive search, I came across SS and fell in love with the detail and the amount of people involved in the RPG. I liked that it was a big all-inclusive story, and as I got more comfortable, noticing all of the wonderful mods here. BELIEVE me, not all HP sites have such genuine admins/mods! I ended up taking a hiatus due to RL, but gladly returned in 2017 for the same reasons. ((Thank you all for making SS what it is!))
