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.

Sneaks in and sets off some of those fantastic "Weasley's Wildfire Whiz Bangs" fireworks to wake up the HCR.

Re: The Seventh Hogwarts Common Room
Is it time to destroy the Common Room already? Can the new one have more floorspace? With the pool, chairs, books, and chocolate fountain, I can barely maneuver in here. Also, someone will have to remember to get Fluffy out beforehand.

Can I request a secret passageway to the restricted section of the library this time 'round? Fully equipped with Invisibility Cloaks, of course.

Re: The Seventh Hogwarts Common Room
You'll have to ask the Common Room, but I think it'll say yes.

Plus I still have a bit left to do in my last online class before I graduate.

When I'm not at work, and the library's open, I'm there (here) doing my homework.

All that's left is the final final exam, though, and then I graduate.

magna *** laude.

You know you can't talk about high graduating rankings in here.

(check out your post if you don't get what I mean).

Re: The Seventh Hogwarts Common Room
It's incredibly quiet in here. Has anyone fed Fluffy lately?

Belated

and no, I don't think anyone's fed Fluffy lately. Honestly, I keep forgetting.

I almost fed Fluffy. Managed to get my leg out of there just in time...

We have more humane ways of feeding him, thankfully.

We don't seem to have been feeding him lately. I just wondered if a hungry Fluffy was scaring people off the Common Room?

It's not Fluffy. It's the rotting garbage in the corner.
