This page is there to focus on explaining to prospective members and also the current members of the site exactly what forums we have and what goes on in each one. So sit back and relax and enjoy reading about the wonderful forums on Hogwarts: The Prophecy.

Contents

Administration

Admin Discussion

This forum is a password protected forum that the admins discuss things to help improve the site or to discuss any problems that are going on. This forum is inaccesible to anyone who does not know the password.

Admin Assistants

All of the Admins on The Prophecy have an assistant that helps them out with their tasks and such. Only the Admins and Admin Assistants can get into this forum. It is just basically there for the admins to post little jobs for their assistant to do if they themselves cannot do it.

New Members

Rules

This is probably the most important part of The Prophecy. The members pride themsleves on sticking to the rules. So we say that each new member MUST read the rules before submitting their application. And if a member hasnt read all the rules we will know. It just helps people to understand what is acceptable and what is not.

Angels

A new member may not know exactly what to do when they first join the site. We wouldn't blame you, it is quite easy to lose your way on the site if you don't know what you're doing. This is where the Angels come in; each new member can apply to have a person assigned to help them in their first few weeks. This person (or 'Angel') will help the person find their way, answer any queries and just be all round helpful until the member no longer needs their services.

Announcements

A forum that just reiterates what is on the scrolling titles on the main Prophecy page. It is basically a forum that lets all members know whats going on on he Prophecy in the week ahead.

Member Applications

This where a member submits their original characters application form. There are two application forms, an adult form and a student form. There is a section at the top of each application where you put rules words, these are of course found within the rules section of The Prophecy and if the words arent right, we'll know you havent read them. And within this forum, there is a sub-forum where you can submit an application for a canon character (one from the books).Once you have submitted your application, you need to wait until it is marked by the Member Apps admin, which is Lucky1289. If your application is accepted, you will recieve a letter welcoming you.

New and Leaving Members

This forum is where current members can welcome new members or say farewell to older members that may be leaving the site permenantly or just for an unknown period of time.

Character Development and Information

Character Profiles

Thisis where a memeber re-posts their application when it has been accepted. This forum is here so we can basically keep a tab on all our members, but also so other people can read about characters personalities etc.

Character Relationships

This forum keeps tabs on all the realationships and families on The Prophecy. So witihn this forum there are threads for Couples, Engaged couples, married and divorced couples.

The Hogwarts Grand Tournement

Ok so there are quite a few collective forums for this so It's best to write about them all at once. The Hogwarts Grand Tournament is a long running contest on The Prophecy and its basically like what goes on within Harry Potter and the Goblet of fire. Four Hogwarts students have been selected and four tasks made up for them to compete in, so the contestents work their way through the tasks until they finish and whoever has the most points, wins. As simple as that.

Required Classes

A collective set of forums that set out the classes students have to take. Each student from a house is set two classes that their houses students have to take during each term.
