Good Day Everyone,

I'm sorry to say that CoS Forums is going to shut down in the Summer, sometime around July. This isn't an early April Fools joke either.

The Forums have become quite expensive to run and manage. There's a lot (LOT) less traffic coming to the site these days as Harry Potter becomes less of a topical debate for people.

I held on for a while after the last film, wondering whether JK would announce anything surprising, but I find that even if she did it wouldn't serve to help the diminishing numbers on the site or my bank balance!

Myself, I've been absent a lot more in the past year as personal issues have taken over and I've had to work longer hours, to earn more money to keep the forums going as well as pay for things like rent, utilities and god knows what else.

Some of you will be sad and I'm sure others will be happy. I'm not doing this lightly and I could have closed the site last year but held off. I know this may upset some of you who've come to see this place as a haven with friends and I'm very sorry it has to go but I've kept this place going with money out of my own pocket for 10 years now and it's no longer financially viable to do so. Please understand that this is not an easy decision!

Some of you may wish to offer to help, to donate or even take on the site. Whilst I would listen to any suggestions, I will not accept donations as this would be unsustainable in the long-term. If you wanted to take on CoS, be aware that you would need to find $200 per month and to be honest with you all I'm not sure I'm prepared to let the site be taken over by anyone. I've created a thread for comments. The other staff know only as much as the above. There is no Plan B as far as they are concerned, so do not pester them for answers to questions. If they do not know, they are being totally honest.

Comment here

Many thanks to everyone who for the last 10+ years have worked in one way or another on the site. All the staff, past and present who gave their time and energy to making the community work. Every single person gave their time for free and were never paid for their efforts. It was a labor of love for all.
Many thanks to the members, those who came & went and dared to stay. Every single one of you who contributed to the site, to the discussions and events. You were the ones who made the site what it became, from the all the book releases to the heated, sometimes famous debates about all sorts of topics. You made CoS what it was. So thank you.

My Life Is Average
Has anyone ever heard of FMyLife.com? Well if you have, this site is pretty similar to it. Basically, it's just a bunch of people saying their life is average, but in a sarcastic way. I like it alot because there are alot of HP related posts, which some are quite funny! So check it out:

mylifeisaverage.com

This is my favourite website ever! All the posts are so hilarious and it's much better than FML.

I absolutely love MLIA and it's one of the things I most look forward to when I turn my computer on! =]

Re: My Life Is Average
Half of those incidents don't seem average, but I like the site anyway My favorite ones include Harry Potter and Twilight fans fighting at Halloween, with the HP kids winning, and someone getting a tie fromThailand.

Re: My Life Is Average
This site made me laugh.

Thanks for sharing!

I was skimming through posts on there and one just cracked me up.
I'll share it here.

I find it much more entertaining than FML. Much less depressing.

Re: My Life Is Average
There's nothing average about MLIA! I love how it makes me laugh. I tried to do one of those MLIA type things and shout out spells to random attractive guys, but all I got was weird stares. ><

Oh my god, I found the FUNNIEST icon on the interwebs: I wasn't sure where to put it, but I feel people might find it enjoyable

Also, I was wondering whether there was a Harry Potter sort of FML, theres a Twilight one, it is FREAKING SCARY.

Am a huge fan of Fmylife.com as well. Haven't had too many things on MLIA make me laugh as much as Fmylife has, but still good.

Re: My Life Is Average
I like MLIA a lot. It's great. If you go to urban dictionary, it's definition for MLIA is:

"My Life Is Average" is a site were "Average" means "crazy awesome" to the mundane boring person. If you make your life crazy awesome by doing random things, not only will you be happier, but you will redefine average in your life.

I'm also an average wizard.

Yeah, there's Average Wizard.
Oh, MLIT? I saw that, and I got a few pages in, laughing like crazy at practically every one (like this one - "Today, I realised my hair is bown jus like bellas! MLIT")...until I realized these people are (supposedly) telling the truth.
