Welcome (And How to Get Started)

Welcome to the Gryffindor Common Room!

 

  Whether you’re a Gryffindor student or a visitor from another house, it’s wonderful to see you here in Gryffindor Tower. Come closer to the fire and find yourself somewhere comfy to sit.

 

  This thread is meant to give you a quick overview of how to sign up for the Common Room and how to find your way around once you have. For more information on our forum rules, our staff and other helpful things to know, you can visit the other threads in this Guidelines Forum.

 

Registering

   First things first, you will need an account on Hogwarts Online (hol.org.uk). Then, you’ll need to make a separate account here as unfortunately, you can’t just use your HOL login!

 

Your Gryffindor username must exactly match the name you use on HOL - that  includes the spaces and capital letters. You should also use the same email address that you used to sign up for HOL, so that we can be sure both accounts belong to the same person.

 

  Once you’ve created an account, it will need to be validated by an admin. This should only take a day or two but please be patient. You can check on the status of your account using the handy Account Registrations thread in this forum.

 

Common Room Tour

  Let’s take a quick tour! The Den (our nickname for the Common Room) has plenty of fun things to explore and take part in. Almost all of them are open to everyone, including visitors from other houses. Here’s a brief description of what takes place in each forum.

 

Main Areas:

Announcements: Updates and news from the Gryffindor staff.

Guidelines (This forum): Where you can find information on rules, staff and how the forum works.

 

Current Activities:

  You’ll find new things to do in Light Reading every month. If there’s a special event going on, it will have its own forum here too!

 

The Seventh Floor Corridor:

Fat Lady’s Portrait: This is the discussions forum. If you want to introduce yourself or dive into a conversation, this is the place.

Madam Pince’s Board: This is the classes board where you’ll find lots of handy advice about homework and tips on how to earn more house points.

Peeves’s Place: The games room! Discover tons of fun games and mayhem.

Sir Nick’s Notices: A place to post any personal announcements, like birthday wishes.

 

The Tower (Gryffindor Only Forums):

Cubs With Clubs: Head here for all things Quidditch as this is the headquarters of the Gryffindor Quidditch Team (GQT).

Here Dwell the Brave: Our lions only lounge chock full of fun things like quizzes, games and handy resources. If you’re new around here, you should head straight to HBD and check out the Newcomer’s Checklist.
