When registering on the board it is important to register with a First Name and Last Name like this "Harry Potter" to make it easier applying for classes and other things.

9. Please Do Not Use Symbols or ALL CAPS or StIcKy
The All CAPS and StIcKy posting can be annoying & confusing so please reframe from doing this on the board. It makes Posts hard to read and it can be annoying if no one can understand what you are trying to say. As for symbols in posts and on the board it is not allowed as they should remain on the keyboard not on a site or in a role play as it makes the board look very messy. Also please do not bold your dialogue parts its down right hard to read & so it is not allowed on this site.

10. Please post in Understandable English
I'm aware that English may not be your first language and that is perfectly understandable. But also use proper punctuation, grammar and spelling. I know there is no such thing as a perfect post but that is what spell check is for so please run your post through spell check before posting to avoid confusion. It easier for the person who's replying to read and won't have to pm you to ask what certain words are and get all confused with your post. A Bad example is walks into them and an example of a good one would be walked over to them. Posts must be all in Third Person we do not need first person or second person posts here Thank You.

11. No Mary Sue/Gary Stu Characters
Not all characters can be classified as perfect. If your character is dubbed as being too "perfect" upon registration, you will be forced to change whatever is necessary. Perfect characters take away the fun of the forum and that's not what we're looking for. For the love of all things great, please make your characters at least half decent!

If your not in the marauder's club. you're not supposed to know who is in the club, who are werewolves and who can change in to an animagus.
