EDIT: The site picks a username for me? Are you fucking serious? How the hell am I supposed to remember HazelCock1933252345?
I lol'd when it said: "Choose a username that is easy for you to remember", all of it's suggestions with at-least four numbers attached. Child protection is a bullshit excuse for such a shitty system, they could have at-least given us a choice of say two or three component words and/or choose our own numbers which would give customisability whilst preventing children using their real names. It's not a good start IMO.
Yeah, thats exactly what I thought. "Easy for you to remember" my ass. At least make the last 4 digits my birthday or something like that.

Copied that shit to a notepad in a heartbeat. Currently waiting on the verification email.

Haha, I know. I was mildly disappointed by that at first, but it lets you give a nickname to anyone who adds you anyway. I think it's because it's a kid-friendly website so they're trying to prevent the whole "Mommy, what's a 'cockmonger'?" conversation.

Still, I would have liked to be "draconiansundae" like I am on every other website on the internet. Alas, my usernname is ShadowJinx16459.
I choose "PixieChaser" because im sure theres a joke of sexual nature in there somewhere.

On a side note, I am now taking bets on how long it will take me to get banned from the forums, lol.

(...If they ever get round to letting me do shit. After setting up my account the site just told me thats all for now and they would let me know when I could do more. This really isnt getting off to the best start.)
Fun fact: "Doxy" is an old, old word for a mistress or a slut. Relevance of that fun fact: in Harry Potter, doxies are violent blue insectoid fairies. Have fun!

Slytherin, Not really sure about the people in that house. If I remember my Harry Potter correctly a great many were complete asshats. But I do admit, their common room sounds absolutely rockin'.

P.S. Not really a HP fan, but I was told there were personality quizzes involved so I don't think I could actually resist.

ShieldOak13082...yeah, I'm going to remember that :(
Had to write it down.

Currently waiting for my permission email before I get sorted. Probably going to be Hufflepuff though, so not getting too excited.

Hmm, I registered out of curiousity. The username system is patronising though. Wtf.

The username system is somewhat annoying. I picked CentaurMirror1490. For those who are waiting, I made my account around noon Canadian West coast time, and I got my "now you can explore the site!" e-mail about an hour ago.

I was kind of impressed with the quizzes myself. Usually it's so obvious which answers correspond to what, but these were much more vague in a good way. Also props on making Slytherin, housemate! Also, I promise I'm not a complete asshat. But that's kind of why I liked the intro message Jo Rowling wrote for Slytherin - it kind of dispels the idea that everyone in the House is a complete supremacist evil jerk.

I agree. It's the only thing I really don't like. Except for potion making. It's bloody impossible!

There were various undertones in the note that sort of support the whole dickery affair. Don't get me wrong; The snake is the coolest of the animals and silver and green are my favourite colours. But i sispect we must come to terms with the fact our house is populated largely by Douchnozzles.

Ohh, there was something on the floor.

Yeah. But this Slytherin is douchenozzle-free! But yeah, as much as I secretly laughed at all of Malfoy's bad-taste jokes about all the Weasleys living in one room, he was definitely a complete wanker, no doubt about it. But Snape was cool. And in the HP universe, accoring to the Word-of-God, Merlin was a Slytherin.

Oh! And who's NettleMagic17015? Not to be creepy or anything, but I need to know what to nickname you so you're not just a generic username!

EDIT: Disregard this. It's someone I know in real life...

It isn't far in, but yeah, I sort of just clicked the next button until it reached those steps (the few I did a full check on didn't show anything I didn't already know at some point).

Also, surprised at the Ravenclaw, but that may have partially been the mood I was in (choose the potion that you'd most like to make (wisdom, power, w/e). Went with wisdom because if I ever wanted power, I'd have a headstart on the whole knowledge part....)

Did anyone else get a tie? I got to choose between Gryffindor and Slytherin. Ohmygod I'm Harry Potter.

Captcha: true life (hahaha.)
