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.

I like egg rolls, beef fried rice, and the tea. But, no chop sticks for me. I prefer regular silverware.

I like trying chop sticks, but it's usually a no go for me. May I have an egg roll please?

The fortune in my fortune cookie says "A Dark Lord may be in your future...keep your noodles dry and your eye on the prize." Well that's odd...

Is it really the Year of the Dragon? That is so cool.

Wonder what that means.

Yes, it really is the Year of the Dragon. Does that mean anything special in China?

Re: The Never Ending Party 2.0
I've been away for a few days, how is the Chinese New Year's Party? ah, I miss Dragon Quidditch. I didn't play but I was a cheerleader, in my little short skirt and sweater, and pom-poms. I couldn't do the splits, but I yelled with the best of them, in fact a bit louder than most.

Re: The Never Ending Party 2.0
Well, is everyone still celebrating the Super Bowl? Some people like a three weekend for the event, with a party on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
this is something I don't celebrate or even watch.
but I like some of the food, like baked chicken or bratwurst with saurkraut or even hot dogs with ketchup and relish.
Party on!

Re: The Never Ending Party 2.0
I ate too much on Sunday. We were going to have a party with my brother's family, but he claimed he was still sick so he didn't come down (they live about an hour and 45 minutes away). We bought a lot of food for the party, too. Ugh.

Anyway...

I know it's a good time to party now.

I ignore the Superbowl as hard as I can, too. I tried to sleep through it this year, and almost succeeded.

Re: The Never Ending Party 2.0
Valentine's Day is coming up. Good reason to party. Also, the state of Az is going to be 100 years old on that day. We are celebrating this weekend, with a big two day weekend celebration. Then more partying on Tuesday. Wish AZ a big Happy Birthday. There is food, people, balloons, music, dancing, story telling, and fireworks!
