Regulations and Guidelines

Before registering an account on Magical Hogwarts there are really only the nine general rules of forum etiquette which you should be aware of. However, once you have registered there is more information specific to character creation and other details of the game you will have to know. To get access to this information please visit our Wiki or consult the rules forum.

1.) Before registering a user account with Magical Hogwarts please make sure you have read and understood our rules. We can usually tell if you have not read them and we will be forced to reject your character application.

2.) We expect that you enter a valid, working email address at registration. If you do not have an email please register an account at one of the free services. Your registration will not complete with an email address that is not working. You will need your email to activate your user account. You will also need your email to use some of the services of Magical Hogwarts such as reply notification.

3.) After registering, make sure you have a valid display name. You can change this by going to your profile, and account related settings. We do not allow members to have certain canon names (Malfoy, Black, etc), the names of celebrities (Johnny Depp, Kate Winslet), or cross-over characters. (Sailor Moon, Buffy the Vampire Slayer).

4.) We discourage more than 3 user accounts per computer, although more is possible as long as you keep each account active.

5.) No swearing, sexual references and other offensive content outside the NC-17 section of the board. We want to keep this place nice, clean, tidy and available for adults and children all around the world. Please refrain from posting politically or religiously offensive material.

6.) Please be respectful and friendly to other members and the administration of this board. We are a friendly and gentle community, we expect friendliness in return.

7.) Magical Hogwarts is based on the books and works or Joanne K. Rowling. Anything that is not in the books is copyrighted by Magical Hogwarts. Please do not take anything from this site without prior permission. We are willing to share rules, graphics and software if asked, however we dislike people that just take things. Certain graphics and items here, however, are not under our copyright, but borrowed from other authors. By taking them you commit an illegal action.

8.) Please refrain from spamming our website with advertisement, or sending advertisement PMs. It is fine to link to your webpage in your profile or signature, however, posting links around the forum will be punished with an instant and irreversible ban.

9.) Please do not advertise Magical Hogwarts on other forums in a way that is not permitted. You are welcome to bring along friends and people you know, but please do not pester other people into joining?
