Diagon Alley Questions
 
Not sure of the rules? Need a hand figuring out what you are and are not allowed to do? After you take a look at the Diagon Alley rules thread, and the SS Site rules, if you still have questions about the Diagon Alley RPG, please feel free to ask them here and one of the Diagon Alley Shopkeepers or an RP moderator will answer it as soon as possible.

Remember there is no such thing as a stupid question.

I have a feeling I saw a rule related to this before but I can't find it now. Is it alright to RP your charrie's parents as well as your charrie in DA?

You're more than welcome to do so, however please make sure you make it clear who you are RPing, either with a change of font colour or with a divider of some sort and be sure that you're focusing more on RPing and interacting with other people's characters than simply amongst your own. (think RP not fanfic and you'll be fine)

Are we allowed to go to Olivander's even if already 'got' a wand last term?

Yes you can go to Ollivanders as many times as you want, but you need to fill out the wand quiz and RP getting your wand each and every time. However, it would mean your character doesn't have a wand anymore for whatever reason, maybe because it broke so keep that in mind. It wouldn't be appropriate to do it more than once a term though and most witches and wizards would be very careful with their wands, so they wouldn't often need replacing.

If you just want a different wand, you can simply make one up and add it to your profile.

We already have a shop for that :yes: but if you are asking if you can become a shopkeeper well than dahling anything is possible! But for now everything is fully staffed, but be on the lookout if anything changes and just have fun! :glomp:

*pounces on you*

Yes to post in the Ministry other than in the visitor thread you need to be employed there, however you don't have to be employed in DA to post regularly in there. Though when the school term begins you can only post your adult characters :)

Not excactly a Diagon Alley Question, but I will answer it for you! :glomp: - 3was once a fresh-face too!

VM, is an abbreviation of Vistor Message, its just away we SS'ers like to connect one another with. I can see on your page that Lara_the_Firelady ave you your first VM, its just a fun way to say hello and welcome. After awhile, you will learn to use it for planning RP's and also just as a way for you to chat with people you meet here on SnitchSeeker.

For future questions like this one, head here to the Question and Answer thread on the Newbie forum!

Hope you have fun playing in Diagon Alley!

:flower: Welcome to Diagon Alley!

Well we don't have a system to keep track of nor distribute money. It's all up to you and who your character is to determine how much money you have. However there is a limit on how much you can withdraw from your account according to canon limits.

Absolutely not! You are more than welcome to visit any shop you'd like, without having to visit Gringotts first (though personally, I encourage taking a peek in Gringotts. They've got a pretty neat quiz in there! :whistle:). It's entirely up to you and where you want to post. ;)

Nothing bad is going to happen, no worries! At most, if there was a problem, a shopkeeper or general DA staff member (teal people) would PM you to explain and nudge you in the right direction.

Just be sure to check out our Diagon Alley rules, and you'll do fine. :D

Not at all! Gringotts is simply one of the many places you can visit in Diagon Alley. You are in no way required to post there or even have an account there. It is completely optional for all characters - Ministry, Hogwarts, Daily Prophet, and Diagon Alley. :)

>_< must type faster next time >_<

Calm down!:glomp: its all going to be OK!

No that you have been sorted you are able to play your character in Diagon Alley, you can go to Gringotts to withdrew some money from the goblins, then shop and make friends till your character's feet want to drop off!

Roleplay is just game of imagination, where we all work together to help shape each others stories! In Diagon Alley you will find shopkeepers who are more than happy to help you along!
Dont worry we were all new once!
:D

marione 08-12-2010 09:21 PM

thanks!!i guess i do need to calm down a bit!!:)

silver_gitana4 08-14-2010 01:09 AM

I am new, and haven't RPed in years. Um I was wondering where do i get a character profile template and where do I post it, also do i have to post my character profile before I start RPing? or can I just jump in? do I have to post a pic of my character somewhere?
I just don't want to mess anything up

You can jump in wherever you like. We don't require a profile or even a picture at all to RP, its very easy going here on SS and we cater for all levels of RPers. There is a place to post a profile if you wish, that is the SS Hogwarts Haven.

If you go into your user cp and under networking, select group memberships, you will see a list of joinable fan clubs. Scroll down until you see ~Fan Club: School RPG Addicts and join that group. Once you get approved you'll be able to access the SS Hogwarts Haven where you'll find a thread to post your student character's Bio.

wow, thanks so much.. I posted some stuff about my character in my profile already. glad about the picture thing... I hate having to search the internet for pics that fit what I think my character looks like.. but I may later on.
I'll jump over to Diagon alley and start shopping for my supplies, hope to see ya'll on the train :)

Team ronmione 08-14-2010 08:27 AM

Is rping with someone allowed in here? Or is it only a certain amount our characters can RP?

RP with as many people as you wish! Have fun and make friends.

BluePhyre 08-17-2010 01:39 AM

Alright, here's one... Why can't I be shifty on Knockturn Alley? I thought I'd just go and have Aveira, my Ministry charrie, do what she does best - look suspicious, that is... - but I couldn't access it. Why?
