Hello, Hello, Helloooooo! Welcome to SS! My name is Ali, and I'm one of two mods that you'll get to interrogatemeet this month. I'll try to avoid giving too much information in this introductory post, so you can ask stuff (as opposed to me blabbing my life story here  ).
I've been a member of SS for 6 years (as of April 1st), so we can pretend this is some kind of birthday party. Yeah?  *places cake on the table for you to take*
I'm currently the Forums Manager, and have previously held positions in the Language Forums (both as an Arabic Mod and the Languages Manager) and the News Forum. Before that, I was a Ravenclaw Prefect in the school roleplay for a few terms.
In real life, I'm a second year university student with a huge interest in music (and nope, the subject I study is probably the furthest topic away from music). I play the guitar, video games, watch movies anddd....
... [insert question to continue  just be sure that you don't break the SS Rules  ] |

I'd like to think that I have enjoyed my six years of SnitchSeeker. There have been times when I've gone away, but overall, yes! The people here are great, and they accompany the fandom so well. Plus, through all the RL changes I've had, SS has been fairly constant as an enjoyable escape. Quote:

Hi there
O...cool that you play guitar. I want to learn...
Hope this doesn't sound like a stupid question but what sort of songs did you first learn on the guitar? You know like to start off with. Or did you just do basic tunes? xxx

How do you find time to fit all this in your life? I want to spend more time in the HP world, but time passes and all of a sudden I realize I havent' done anything HP computerwise in days.

In one of my uni applicant interviews I had to pick from a number of animals, and chose an Owl, because I'm pretty quiet, and generally have intelligent moments. So owl, maybe? Or maybe a Fox. Quote:

But if I've got time, Drop C and Drop B, too... aswell as standard C and standard B (SO lowww). But then I usually worry about snapping a string when I tune back up. Quote:

That's not a stupid question at all!  The first things I did was just play randomly. Then Behind Blue Eyes by Limp Bizkit (simply picking through E, G, D, C). So I guess I first got to know the guitar, and then started learning songs. Good luck if you begin!! Quote:

I wish I could say I've successfully done everything like I'd want to, but alas. There's times when university is intense, and I have to ease away from here, then vice versa when I'm around almost 24/7. Sometimes SS might get in the way of my studies, but I think I'd keep it like it is, if I had a choice of giving up SS and having better grades or whatever.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Selena Black Second Year | By video games, do you mean like killing games?
When you said "Combat-y" games, I thought of the game I play:
Combat Arms. (:
It's fun and it's kind of like CoD, but not really.
What is your favorite movie other than Harry Potter? (:
(Oops, that was 2 questions.) |

(Oops, that was 2 questions.) Not particularly 'killing' games, though that may feature within the games. I haven't heard of Combat Arms, but I'll take a look at it sometime!  The reason I don't like CoD as much is cause CoD is all about run-shoot-run-shoot, whereas Battlefield and Ghost Recon are more for a thinking person.
Favourite non-Potter movie (although, saying that, the Potter movies wouldn't be in my favourites anyway) include Batman Begins, Transformers, Mission Impossibles, etc.

Hi Aliiii !!
Goodness, this all started (somewhat) with a question about a guitar, huh? Hmmmm *contemplates question/comment*
Ghost Recon ftw, I'm a big fan. Haven't touched it in quite a bit though.
I suppose... Would combaty extend into fighting games as well? [Hopefully this wasn't mentioned already]
Fighting games as in... the New Mortal Kombat!?!? XD

I don't, no. I'm not really a dog person, though cats are cool. But nah, I don't have either. Quote:

Ghost Recon is awesome, there's a new one coming out soon *hopefully!*.
I guess you could say so, yes. Not specifically Mortal Kombat, but games of that sort (Street Fighter/Soul Calibur)

Hogwarts RPG Name: Ezekiel Andrei de Ferreis Seventh Year | TwistedHearts was here. {TwistedHearts. ♥ || GRYFFINDOR | | Zara, Zeke, Regina, Icarus. ♥ || Yssa.} Do you play the piano? I enjoy it quite much, though I only know the basics. If you do play, have you ever gotten lessons? If not piano, any other instruments you play? Or sing, perhaps? |
