| | Diagon Alley RPG now open to students Diagon Alley Reminders Memo
To: All Diagon Alley Staff
This is a reminder that Hogwarts School of Witchcraft & Wizardry students are off for the summer and that means there will be an influx of students into Diagon Alley as they relax from the previous term and prepare for the next. Please be prepared for the extra business this will provide and try to maintain a safe environment for our young people.
ooc: The School & Ministry RPG admins would like to take this time to remind everyone of the Rules for Diagon Alley now that we are between terms.
Diagon Alley is open to all sorted students and Ministry employees. If you have both a student character (you MUST be sorted) and a Ministry character (you MUST be placed) then you ARE allowed to RP both characters in Diagon Alley at the same time between terms. The rules do not state that you cannot play other characters you have made up but, for simplicity sake, please try to stick to just the two.
Please do NOT role play for the shopkeepers. We do have members who RP the shopkeepers, so kindly allow them the chance to interact with you. Do not just enter a shop and say the shopkeeper did this and that. It is against basic RP etiquette to play for characters other than your own. Note: Once the Hogwarts Express leaves for next term, you can NOT play your student character in Diagon Alley any longer. |

I know I'm not a mod or admin, but I thought it would be ok to go ahead and answer your questions. For your first question, you don't really buy school supplies. You pretend that your characters already bought his/her supply, or you can RP them getting their supplies. I don't think that really helped thought.
As for the sorting, it'll begin on the 24th. Info that you need about the Hogwarts RP can be found on the home page all the way at the bottom in a blue box with the headline School RPG above it.
And for your last question, Snitchseeker is free. You don't have to pay for this site. Don't worry about being confused, we all were when we first signed up. You'll get the hang of things in no time!

Hi! I'd be happy to try and help you with that question.
The sorting on Snitch Seeker works differently from the way it does in the books and films. This is mainly because of how the school forums are set up. As a sorted member you will be able to post in the school forum and because the great hall is in the school forums, you shall need to be sorted out of character (that is your account will have to be placed into one of the four Hogwarts houses) before you are sorted in character. Being an extension of the school rpg, Diagon Alley too, requires that members wishing to play students there be sorted. One of the funnest ways I've seen people deal with this is to create a character that is going into their first year at Hogwarts and playing as though he or she does not know what house they shall be in.
"Soon" is sort of ambiguous, but I take it to generally mean that within the next 2 or so weeks (and definitely within the months time), though it can and often is less time. The people who run the site do so on their free time much like volunteers, and sometimes a real life emergency can occur that makes the time for the event have to be scaled back, but they always get it done.
As the member above me kindly pointed out, the site is free to all members. You do not have to pay for a thing. Thanks Marcy!
Hopefully that helped to make it a bit clearer, but if for some reason it didn't, feel free to ask further questions.

I just noticed your post and wanted to offer a bit of help. The way to get your character a broom would be to go to Quality Quidditch Supplies and role play your character entering the store. The store manager, Marco Denver, would be more than happy to help you choose the broom that is right for your character. While you are at it, why not stop by the other shops in Diagon Alley as well to make sure your character 'gets' all your school supplies? There are shopkeepers in all the stores (including goblins in Gringotts!) ready and willing to help you.
Please read this before you get started and if you have any questions at all, please feel free to ask them here or private message any shopkeeper, admin (people with user names in black) or mod (dark blue names) or staff (people with user names that are purple) and we will be happy to help you get started!
Have a great time and welcome to the Snitchseeker RPG!
