Hey all you SnitchSeekers! Wanting badly to talk about Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows? Well, as you may have heard, we've put in a spoiler ban so everyone who has not finished the novel can have a chance to read it without having it ruined for them. Spoiler ban means that you are NOT allowed to discuss Deathly Hallows, talk about Deathly Hallows, wear spoilery Deathly Hallows graphics, or anything else that could potentially spoil the book for another member (or mod for that matter!).

We have ONE PLACE, and ONE PLACE ONLY where you can go to gush over everything in the novel: SnitchSeeker now has a Spoiler Forum! In this forum, you can talk almost anything and everything Deathly Hallows related. So, if you've finished the book and you're ready to chat, just reveal the link and the password below! I wouldn't go in there if you haven't read, though. You have been warned.

SPOILER!!: Click Me to reveal the Spoiler Forum link & password

Just so you know, once you put the password in once, you won't need to again - it's just a one time thing! (Note: If you log out or clear cookies, you will need to reenter the password). Please remember that the spoiler ban will last for a few weeks at the very least. We want to give everyone the opportunity to read first. Some people want to savor the last book, and we're trying our best to give everyone that opportunity.

Also, do not post spoilers in this thread! Save it for the forum!

If you post spoilers in this thread, you'll be instantly suspended from the site and won't have a chance to use the spoiler forum!

-----

We're sure you've noticed that several forums have been shut down.

Malkins & Scribbulus' (Graphics)
Flourish & Blotts (Books)
The Three Broomsticks (Fan Clubs)
Grimmauld (FanFic's and all of it's sub forums)
Diagon Alley (General HP discussions)

These forums are closed in order to hopefully cut down on spoilers. We'll open them back up when the mods have all had a chance to read and when we feel the time is right. We would expect most to open with the next two weeks.

In addition to the above forums being temporarily closed, members may experience a delay in thread approval. The mods and admins are avoiding the moderation queue until such a time as they have finished reading. This is to ensure that they don't get spoiled by people submitting spoilery new threads. We don't think the dely will be more than a few days but, please be patient with us.

Snitchseeker has also turned off registration. We're sorry to have to do it, but we feel that it will really cut back on people joining just to post spoilers. We will post another news story once registrations may resume, probably in about one week.

Happy reading everyone from everyone on staff!

HP_Babe · 07-20-2007, 11:47 PM

Ahh I am so exciting I'm going at midnight tonight to get the book!!! woot woot.

futuremrsmalfoy · 07-21-2007, 06:48 PM

i was the first to get my book in Fleminton nj and i stayed up all night and finished it at 10:23 am this morning!!!!!!!!

Ginny GL · 07-22-2007, 05:37 AM

I have to wait for my book until tuesday, but couldn't help going to the spoilers. Some doubts were just killing me, and the frustration over the delay was too much.
As far as I've read spoilers, I'm kinda happy.
Won't say anymore here.
Thanks a lot for creating that forum and all the security measures.

It keeps telling me that the password I entered was incorrect even though I've copied and pasted it and I've checked over a dozen times. My cookies are enabled. So what is the problem? What should I do?

mountaindewsgreen · 07-23-2007, 02:48 PM

I can't enter the forum! Help!

Hagridlover101 · 07-23-2007, 03:22 PM

Nienna · 07-23-2007, 04:45 PM

SPOILER!!: click on the lovely button at your own risk ya'll.

That's what I had. So you guys try that out =)

Slytherin Fox · 07-23-2007, 05:01 PM

I finished the book yesterday! I really want to get into the forum to discuss it.

Mad Eye Touz · 07-23-2007, 06:40 PM

Sorry guys - there was some confusion about the password and some miscommunications. The spoiler cut now shows the CORRECT password. Again, apologies from all of us.

Tom Marvolo Riddle · 07-23-2007, 06:43 PM

Yeah I'm done. But two weeks for no Fanclubs? Thats a little long, don't ya think?

~*ambora*~ · 07-25-2007, 02:34 PM

OMGosh I stayed up all night until midnight for the book. I'm kinda late in reading it though because my mommy said I couldn't read it until my summer reading was done

Do you think the members of those fan clubs that may or may not have had a casualty in the books can keep it quiet..? I think it would be very hard not to make some sort of comment on it. Seeing as how there are stills tons of members that haven't had a chance to read yet, no, we do not think that is too long. We're working on an alternative, but I wouldn't expect them to open any time this week.

griffin_girl · 07-25-2007, 08:29 PM

I love the password!

*goes to t3h Forum*

harry_fan · 07-26-2007, 09:48 AM

I *hopefully* fixed it to where you can get in now. If not, don't be shy to PM an admin for help!

i m a potter fool ^_^ · 07-28-2007, 01:48 AM

And, Dudes, I have had some comments from some people that the password isn't working. Remember to capitalize the first letter of the password.

That's usually the problem.

Yeah, your right, I didn't think about someone saying something without thinking about it. And I certainly want everyone to be able to read the book first, it's just kinda bothering. But I do see your point. Thanks!

Slytherin Fox · 07-30-2007, 03:13 PM

It is hard. I finished the book by Sunday the 22nd but I know that others are probably still reading it. I really miss the fan cubs and the stuff I was doing on Scribbulus right now, though, and am actually pretty bored. I have gotten so far behind on the School RP that I probably can't get back into it till the next term starts. I was busy working on the scavenger hunt and some of the FC FFs, now I have nothing much to do! I'm bored!
