Have You possibly bought The marauder's map? Or Have accidentally gotten rid of it?

It's still in my trunk

Huh weird

It's supposed to show after all this time, right?

Mine works, but I'm an admin, so perms may make it so I can see no matter what. I'm going to send my map to my student account and see what happens. There may be a bug, in which case I'll notify Zach (the site's coder).

I have the map on my student account and it’s working fine for me.

How do I fix this?

Is your invisibility cloak turned on in preferences (it needs to be off for you to use it.)
ucp.php?i=ucp_prefs&mode=personal

It's off

If you only turned it off recently, you have to wait a certain amount of time (a day or two, maybe?) before it will show. Think of it as a cooldown.

Ty, but just checked it and it still doesn't show. I guess I'll have to wait some more(?)

I found out it is actually around 4-7 days I can’t remember exactly but I have had it happen to me

Oh ok ty

Cheers.

Yeah, I sent it to my student acc (Livia Machavariani) first, swapped off the invisibility cloak preference, and couldn't see it. On this account, I've never had that preference on, and the map works fine. So it likely isn't a bug, and I'd assume Nick's right about a cooldown.

Edit:
1. When someone deactivates where does all their money and property disappear to?
2. I am a Metamorphmagus. Can I mention changing my appearance intentionally, or only emotionally - not intentionally?

To answer number 1- the money stays on the account that is being deactivated unless you send the items or money to another account before the deactivation process is completed.

The amount in your purse is what you use to pay for any items on site including pets.

Purse money
So I have 19 galleons in my total wealth, but the money in my purse is 12 sickles and 2 knuts. That is what administrators pull from when they are giving you your pet, they do not pull from your total wealth.

Total wealth adds up the cost of all items in your trunk (ie: your brooms, your books, your uhh- sneakoscope) in addition to the money in your purse. This isn't something that administrators pull from. They only pull from your purse.

Okay , i get it now thank you
