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.

Re: Harry Potter Caption Contest v.8
WHOAH! Wasn't expecting that caption to win. Man, I thought it got quickly buried by the amount of humor that followed. Thank you! And the next screenshot is:



I felt like this screenshot had a lot of potential. Sorry about it being small!

Re: Harry Potter Caption Contest v.8
Congrats to all the winners.

Dumbledore (Staring at Flitwick who is just out of the shot) - "Filius? Where have you been? You know we hold our weekly Heads of Houses meeting at 7 30pm on the dot!"
Flitwick - "So sorry, Headmaster. Choir practice went over time."
Dumbledore - "But, Filius, Hogwarts doesn't have a choir......."
Alfonso Cuaron (Off screen) - "We'll soon fix that!"

Snape screws up the conga line.

The Twins' latest prank involved an extremely realistic display, one which Dumbledore could not help but play along with. Minerva and Pomona are not pleased.
----
Dumbledore: Severus, why are you staring at that mirror?

Re: Harry Potter Caption Contest v.8
Professor Sprout wonders where that awful smell is coming from.

(Thanks for the Hon Mention - I wasn't expecting a mention at all among such excellent captions!)

Professors McGonagall, Sprout, Dumbledoore, and Snape were watching Hagrid trying to do the Limbo.

Re: Harry Potter Caption Contest v.8
Minerva: Such an unseemly display for a teacher! What could Filius be thinking?
Dumbledore: Interesting.
Sprout: Could he be having some kind of fit? Should we get Madame Pomfrey?
Snape: It's called breakdancing, Pomona.
Sprout: Oooo, can you do that too, Severus? Will you teach me?

Re: Harry Potter Caption Contest v.8
Not very funny, but I 'm in a rush.

Pomfrey: Honestly Minerva, the back of their hair is horrid...
McGonagall: Albus obviously hasn't caught up with the ancient combing fashion. Wait... is that Mrs Norris entangled in his hair?
Dumbledore: Hush, I'm doing a favour.
Snape:... am I the only one noticing that Rowling woman hiding behind the corner taking down notes?

Snape: I didn't know Hagrid did strip teases.
Sprout: Should we be watching this?
McGonagall: He has a nice body for such a large man.
Dumbledore: I can't unsee that. Someone help me unsee that!

It turns out you can be quite funny! You win the round! (I hope you don't mind but I made a correction in your caption, I know you were in a rush.)
