Hi site,
So, we've had another great idea,
and as per requested, i'm discussing it with you all...
Nah, i would've anyway, we try to ask about the big things all the time, it's only small OOC things we don't.
Anyway, to the point.
We, the admins, have noticed something, it's been present for quite awhile, and although it was closed for a few weeks, we've reopened it, and there's no sign of an increase.
What i'm talking about is Activity in Hogwarts, or a distinct lack thereof.
Now, this site is aimed to be a Hogwarts RP, and always has been, having grads was a more recent, side-track for the site. However, as of late it seems to have become a bit more of a central focus, despite our efforts.
So, what're we're thinking is that we want to close the outside world to Students, as Hogwarts was intended to be, so that we can get some more activity into that section of the site.
Either that, or we want to see a massive increase in all of Hogwarts. That section of the forum has everything that is needed for RP, there's common rooms, outdoor areas, places to gather with friends, classes, all that stuff. Realisticly, most of the students seem to limit their RPing to with other students, so i doubt it would limit your pool of people to RP with.
Now, this isn't an announcement to tell you this is happening, but more a warning. If we don't see some increase in Hogwarts. The classes, dorms, great hall, grounds, all that jazz, we may have to resort to going through with this.
If you have any alternatives to this, do share, if you have something to say on the matter, say it, but this is something we, the admins, really want to do.
