# No suicidal posts are allowed.

# The following names/ last names are not acceptable after (if you created it before this date you are alright) January 21, 2009 on HOS: Anything Cullen, Swan, or Hale from the Twilight movies (including the book first names. When you use names taken from the books you are breaking copyright laws), Harry Potter last names (i.e. Potter, Weasley, Finnigan, Tonks, Granger, Dumbledore... etc. Question on legality of HP names? ASK), any exact names from books, movies, video games, television. Restrictions on names are subject to change and you may be asked to change your name if the last name becomes too frequent between members who are not related.
# Using information from HOS such as board names that are nonspecific to the Harry Potter books or other Character names on other sites is illegal. All HOS original creations must stay on HOS unless given express permission. See the Terms of Service. Read them, it's important!
# All HOS rules apply in the Cbox. If a large amount of cursing is found in the Cbox, it will be removed. Points can be taken for misbehavior in the Cbox. You can be banned from the Cbox (I just figured out how ^^).
# House points can be earned for signing up for classes, doing homework, performing well in class, and doing good deeds around the forums.
# House points can be deducted for misconduct, breaking the rules, entering forbidden places and anything else a Prefect, Teacher or HoH deems worthy.
# If you have any further inquiries or concerns you may come and see the Headmistress in her office. Alternatively, contact a Deputy Head (names appear in purple).
-If this right is taken away due to punishment for bad PMing ettiquette (which would be addressed at the time) you can still post in Office threads in the Student Services Board.
