Humm, I think it was right after watching the third harry potter movie and wanted to make my own character for that story, so I went online and googled Harry Potter RPGs

Through randomly searching Hogwarts Online...it was the first option that came up

[Tallulah Brimstone]

I was in the middle of writing a fan fic (Oh the joys before employment. They're still not done!) and needed a proper map of Hogwarts. So I bashed Hogwarts Online into Google and it spat out this site. My fan-fics have taken a back seat now... Kinda.

6 years ago i hopped on myspace and there was a message for hiring a divinations professor and im a practitioner in rl and decided why not see if its fun i'd read all the books next thing i knew i was hired and 3 months later i was headmistress

[Eirlys Gabriel]

I was re-reading Harry Potter books and I wanted to see if I could take HP classes online. So I googled Hogwarts classes online and the first thing that popped up was HO. I had never actually RPed before, but I play RPGs and Dungeons and Dragons and such, so I thought, how hard can it be? I've also written stories when I was bored, so I figured, might as well give it a try. And now I'm on this site every day for multiple hours just roaming on the site and posting. I go on this more than facebook now!

I was bored and looking through the Ravenclaw fb group and somebody posted it there so I checked it out. Tried out some other HP RPs but they were all utter failures (especially the one where almost everyone was a Ravenclaw *shakes head*)

Ok I had two ways of finding this site. The first time I typed in Hogwarts Online and I found this site. It seemed nteresting but I never did RP in my life! So I left and went back to doing my homework I kept procrastinating on. Then a few months later I wanted to find a sorting hat game and stumbled upon this site again. This time I did the test. Thought of the most unique name and BAM Turwaithiel Ithilwen Greenleaf was born. I dont remember the year though. I think I was November 2010.

Well, I have to join the google bandwagon, it looks like... about two months back, I was nosing about Google for a map of Hogwarts, and one of the images led back to this site. I've lurked about until I found out everything I could while avoiding registry, of which I was rightfully leery, then gave up, told myself it'll help my creative writing, partially invented Anna, and landed in Slytherin. Much to my own surprise and vast amusement, I've found a new way to entertain myself, entirely by writing.

[Healer Alba Lautrec]

I was watching A Very Potter Sequal with a friend, and she showed me the site. I was instantly in love.

[Danka Ravensdale]

One of my dearest friends moved away a couple of years ago and through the time we've been in contact via FB and e mail. SO, one day, while gossiping about her latest trends, she told me about the site and she actually dared me to join (she's an active member of it too). So glad and happy I did...

I saw a picture on Facebook, and I've been hooked ever since!

[Taimat Valenti]

I sudden materialized in a puff of comical smoke, wearing a sun-burnt grin and a faded fedora, singing a dirty sea-shanty and holding a bottle of Whiskey and Run. I was standing on The Big Red Car, Captain Feathersword's feather stuck down my pants. Turning around, I saw the Eagle Capital in the distance, and Two Towers in the opposite direction. So I fled from that place until I found myself in a magical garden.
That;s how I got here.

I found it in 2010, I was simply gaining knowledge..lol.. about Hogwarts, then I saw Hogwarts Online. I enrolled there, I was sorted in to Gryffindor but then due to studies, I left it. I think there was something changing site or something like that, a year after, I searched the name, then It says that there is no member of that name and then I made a new account, sorted in to Ravenclaw and here i am.

[Grimm Rochester]

Funny enough I found it through a random ad back in 2007 on Myspace. Like it literally appeared in front of me . But even with the loss of internet twice, I have remained addicted to the site. I blame JKR and C for that, but I praise the day that little sign/ad/check us out thing appeared on Myspace.

[Ruella Georfred]

I was crazy in love with Harry Potter and more and more when the film has ended. I thought it would be great if there were a Hogwarts Online school, so I searched it. I've found many, but I was so thankful that I could meet this site, in 2011. Ruella Georfred just like the part of my life not only a 'character'

[Stella P Thompson]

I am on another Harry Potter RP site but it is ALL roleplay. I wanted something that was a bit different so I googled Harry Potter Rp. This site was one of the results, and happened to have enrollment open so I joined.

The classes totally won me over, and the fact that people aren't constantly harped on for making a one paragraph RP post. It's a nice change, and the professors have been so helpful.
