The staff often make the announcements simultaneously- Some are pertaining to the discord only and others are both. There is an announcements page here that I recommend subscribing to for notifications if you are concerned about missing anything of upmost importance!

I know but lot’s of the time the things like outages are not posted there

There was an announcement posted here for the outage of transferring the site (Zach sent it), but there’s not always an announcement about outages because they used to happen randomly because of too many bots. That’s not the case now. Usually if the site does go out, it doesn’t take too long to come back.

There was but after the outage

After the outage? Why would we need one after the outage? (I’m serious and very curious why. This is not meant to be rude, but just to understand. )

The only one I can find was after the outage about the new server

This is probably a very common question, but its been tugging at my mind for a while. We are allowed to backwards date as far back as we want, right? If I move onto my second year, is it still possible to roleplay a scenario in the past when I was a first year? Im asking this because I dont want to extend my first year by an extra year but I also feel like I havent participated in enough threads. Thanks

Yep you can! You could backdate as far as you want. You can also do forward dating but only by three months. And be sure its clear that youre back/forward dating for no confusion

This is a warning. Please keep this forum for questions and their answers only. We have At The Counter as an appropriate forum for chitchat. Keep this in mind @Tes Cadell, @Tina Carille, @Winter Angelo.

And @Angelo Angelov, what has been answered by Nick Jameson and Bree Grey is right. You can get a more detailed explanation of it in this post in the Basic Site Rules.

Can I use the site pet images of two colored devil's spawn rabbit and snowy owl in Lillian and Claire's encyclopedia?

Also, more of a lore question: Do pregnant wizard mothers have things to tell what gender the baby is, or is the baby always a surprise?
