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.

She didn't make a mess anywhere did she?

And as for the bathroom, the problem I have when there's just one is when someone's in the shower I have to go...but, you're married so I guess that's okay.

Re: The Seventh Hogwarts Common Room
No, she was a very good girl and held it all in until we let her out. She went to her food and water dishes before she headed for the litter box, too.

And going when your spouse is in the shower is no biggie.

Yeah, it's different when it's your sister in the shower.

Re: The Seventh Hogwarts Common Room
Yeah, my advice in that case would definitely be to stay out of the room.

Maybe even out of the house . . .

Re: The Seventh Hogwarts Common Room
Well, you know how it is. My sister can be a major pain in the neck, especially since she can't stand my new husband. And she gets her way, so I'm not allowed to bring Sage to family functions if she's going to be there.

That's horrible! That should not be allowed. She should have to deal with your husband whether she likes it or not. Boo.

Re: The Seventh Hogwarts Common Room
Yes, well, tomorrow I'm going to lay it down: it will be the last time I go to my mom's on a Sunday afternoon (or any other day) without my husband. If they want to see me, they are going to have to accept the concept of seeing him, too.

It's silly, really; all based on misunderstandings and inflated incidents. Sage is the kind of guy who can get along with pretty much anybody, unless they're really looking for a fight and then he won't back down. My sister started this one. Sage has been over it since the day after it happened. She's the one hanging on to it as if it were indicative of some severe, gaping character flaw of his. Really, she's just a drama queen and Sage wouldn't put up with her theatrics. That's all it boils down to in the end.

Re: The Seventh Hogwarts Common Room
I'm sorry your sister is like that. My sister's a drama queen, but it's usually her wanting to bring her friends around at inappropriate times (if it was a boyfriend, that's one thing, but just a friend?)

Lyra as long as he was just your boyfriend I can see your family going along with your sisters wishes. But now that he is family, I think your sister had better change her ways . I think you should just take him with you and if she gets her nose out of joint, then she is the one who can leave the house while you are there . Stand up to her and fight for your man.

Oh good. Then I can go off in a corner and read a book and observe people while I'm at it.
