I used my old post count list to get these, so please don't take it personally if you aren't on this list and you think you should be. I just wanted to do my best to represent the guild and its members from way back in the beginning. Anyway, from the list, I tried to stick only to members who've made more than 500 posts. But I have no idea who's been active since then, really. I last updated the list in October of 06. And there are a few more that I wanted to put on here, but just couldn't justify it because they hadn't made 500+ posts, but I either distinctly remember them or I remember them being very helpful to the guild somehow. If I could, I think I'd like to put those people, as well as any who don't make the cut for cards (both past and present), somewhere just so the guild can sort of tip its hat to them on its anniversary. A sort of "Thank You" to those who helped the guild grow just by being regularly active for a few months, making the guild a pleasurable experience. Anyway, here's the list...

italics=founding member (from before the official guild was bought)
bold=Was a Head of House at some point
*=I feel like this person should definitely get a chocolate frog card.
(00/00/00)=join date (mm/dd/yy)


**o0Pinike0o (07/23/04) [Guild founder, obviously]
*[Shorty] (07/23/04) [first deputy-head and first Gryf Head]
*Alutian (01/03/06) [not sure if she's been made a head since I last updated the list]
*Angilwingz (05/05/05) [was very active before she even became Head. Was called the "Activities Coordinator" for a while]

*Eowiclya (12/31/05)

*Junimaia (12/02/05) [...I just adore Juni. Period.]
*KTweirdchick (11/?/04) [it pains me to put myself here, actually. But I was the first Ravenclaw Head and then the first Hufflepuff Head too, when we couldn't find someone for the job, I was also the second Headmistress, as well as the founder and first editor of the Hogwarts Monthly] xp
Lady Courtney (10/02/05)

I want to get active in the guild again since I have taken such a long hiatus. But there is a problem. I just found out I can get Internet service at my house. All I can use is my iPhone. Can there be an exception for me posing in my house colors? It is REALLY hard to do anything in Gaia through the iPhone. xP

So... Speaking of more pressing matters... I see that the Fright Week Post looks to be ready (and it's unlocked)... and Halloween is in two days... and the event forum still says (Coming Soon!).... is that a mistake? or are we starting on Halloween this year?

O_O this guild is so dead its been 3 days since any one posted in this thread the classrooms the rps threads or the sfq we need a mass revival of the guild and we need it fast before this guild fades away in the dust

((I took this from the Fright Week Post))
I agree, and I also don't want to see this guild fade away. I felt we had a pretty good response for house spirit week, but Fright Week has been a bit distressing to me in regards to a lack of response...

I know people are busy right now, and activity tends to fluctuate as people have either more or less time on their hands, but I want to do something to wake people up. I think that a lot of our current members are busy in RL right now, many will probably be back, others maybe not, but I know that after a while you really start to miss the guild. Unfortunately guild recruiting is really not my forte, but I think it's really important at this point for us to get some new members. (if anyone could give me some recruiting pointers that would be awesome)

Take heart everyone, Potterness isn't dead yet, we've still got Pottermore to look forward to somewhere down the road, let's not let inactivity bring us down! 3nodding

I know how difficult it is to format a post on Gaia using an iPhone, so my suggestion is to just type the code for the color. Look at the code below for an example.
[color=red] Your text. [/color]

It's not long or very difficult to type and should solve your problem biggrin

Hope: A few things in regards to your list. (Not sure if you already know all of this, or if you were gone during that time.)
- Alutian was Head of Ravenclaw for quite a while. At least a couple years I think. (I wasn't here the whole time, so I'm not sure.)
- Animekitty47 was Head of Gryffindor for a while (after MLT left), and only recently stepped down.
- Avatar34 is now Head of Gryffindor. She was made a mod a while before that and has been an amazing help (both before and after becoming a mod).
- Junimaia was Head of Hufflepuff for a while. (Once again, not sure how long since I wasn't here the whole time.)


I'll respond to other stuff when I have time.

lols im not good at recruiting but i usually just go to all my friends and invite tehm to the guild and then when im talking to some one at random and they are interested in harry potter i send them this way all i can say is make sure you ask them before sending them a link to the guild or you may just anger them and they wont join(i cant send invites cause i am not a crew member but you can so i just send links to the guild home page and let them find out for them selves if they want to join)

Alright guys, working on the chocolate frogs, and working on the bios of people, but It's taking me hours reading old forums trying to learn about everyone and what they did. So please if you could tell me just anything you can think of about any of these people, I'd luff you forever!

Quote:
Alutian: Ravenclaw HoH, Editor of the Hogwarts Monthly, all around awesome human being.
Celestial Archer: Head of Gryffindor House... and a name that I've always known, but other than that.. I dunno....
Junimaia!: I've read TONS from her, I think it'd be impossible not to adore her... HoHufflepuffH, HM Editor, uh- House Cup artist... it's hard when the heads of houses have done just about every job there is... sweatdrop
Lorrietta: Hogwarts Monthly Editor for a bit of time.
Miss Love Tantei: Yet another all around awesome human being. HoGH (that is Head of Gryffindor House)... um, for some reason I can't think of any other specific "titles" she had... but I know she did a whole lot...

Of course this isn't all of them, these are just the ones that I feel I would specifically like some feedback on...

In the grand scheme of things, I originally wanted Celestial on a card because she was a Head when I was a head many years ago. However, she was one of the ones I tried contacting (before MLT, Alutian) stepped up about getting the guild active again... I say remove her and put someone like Angilwingz on the card.
PostPosted: Mon Nov 14, 2011 12:15 am


Just to clarify, there are many many more cards that I'm making. And certainly not only for the people whose names are above, but since I'd like to keep some of it a surprise, I just asked for feedback on A) the ones that could possibly be remembered by anyone other than Hope/KT and B) The people whose reign was after KT left

For anyone who doesn't know KTweirdchick/ Hope Maxime is my sister. 3nodding

(@ Icee: I'm sure you can imagine, I've got quite enough info on Angil from KT to write 20 bios about her... wink )

If you're going to do a special in the HM about HM editors, there have only been three (with a few guest editors) that made more than one issue. KT, Tina, and myself (Alutian, Juni, MLT all stepped in when the current editor didn't get an issue going)
PostPosted: Tue Nov 22, 2011 12:37 am


So when exactly is the guild anniversary? "December" is pretty vague. What else is being planned? The cards are a very nice idea, but I have a feeling participation will be a flop without more festivities. *crosses fingers for a battle with mountain trolls crashing our party* I think we as members need to advertise more too. The last DVD just came out this month but we don't seem to have a lot of new members. I've also noticed in CB and LD a number of people with sig links to other HP guilds...we're the best; they should be our members! Starting tomorrow I'm making on all out assault for their magic-loving, fanfic-writing, char-fantasizing souls!! I expect others (mods excepted) to follow suit.

Hi Crystal!!

December is vague.... and the exact date hasn't been decided because we're still hammering out specific details. We want to make sure there's enough time to enjoy every aspect of the event, so we're shooting for December.
This year we're doing something TOTALLY different... as in NO DICE GAMES. But it's going to be interesting and worth it!
I agree, so thanks to Red, we're also going to be hosting another guild recruitment contest. More details for that will be released along with information for the next sorting. More house points, more collectibles, more members!!!
I love how you say we're the best... OF COURSE! We survived for 7 long, active years.
