About Your application will be put into the queue, where ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif?v=92.2){kind=small} mssekishi will approve them no more than five at a time. When the week finishes, she will stamp your application. Applications are approved from the queue Sunday - Tuesday. Please do not email me or any other moderator about this. It has been explained here and you will be directed right back here. Cut off for accepting applications will be Sunday at 8 pm UTC. Applications after that deadline will be dropped the following week. You'll be messaged with a date of when you can expect your application to be posted. If you haven't been messaged by Sunday 8pm UTC, chances are that you won't be in the sorting week starting then. If you receive a message telling you that the queue is full, please keep in mind that you will have to wait until the time more applications are approved and posted, opening up spots in the queue. Again, please do not contact any moderators about this. It is down to LiveJournal's own limits for moderation queues. You are strongly advised to read the Platform 9 3/4 FAQ before filling in your application. It contains examples of good apps and bad apps and the likely scenarios they will create, further advice on how to fill out the application, and what to do if you are unhappy with your sort. Please save a copy of your application in case you need to expand or resubmit your application. [FOR APPLICANTS] -- PLEASE READ CAREFULLY! The Mother of all Rules: Do not try to join ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/community.gif?v=92.2){kind=small} hogwartsishome before you have been sorted. You will receive an invitation to the community on the Sunday evening that you get stamped. Any membership requests before that time will be rejected.1. ABSOLUTELY NO DELETING OF YOUR APPLICATION AT ANY TIME. Members take time to vote on your application, and receive points for doing so. If you decide that you would not like to join the community after your sorting, that is entirely fine, but do not delete your application please. 2. No replying to votes under any circumstances. If you have a legitimate complaint about a vote you have received, please email the Voting Mod, who will deal with it for you. Your complaint will be taken seriously, and we will do what we can to set the matter right. 3. Do not manipulate the code we give you please. This includes changing the font type in ANY way. Doing so creates visibility issues, and can mess up your coding if done wrong. 4. Whilst we understand that some applicants may not have English as their first language, please try to observe proper grammar and spelling throughout your application. No txt spk please! 5. Journals must be at least two months old to be sorted. Your application will be rejected otherwise, and we do not keep copies for later use. If you have a query relating to this (for example, it is a newly created journal, although you are not new yourself to LiveJournal), please get into contact with your Voting Mod. Please be aware that contacting the Voting Mod does not mean an immediate bypass of this rule. 6. If your application is Muggle voted, please keep in mind you will have to wait 2 weeks before you can reapply again. This rule is in place so you have the opportinity to go over your application if you wish and and return with either a new or an improved one! 7. If you are a returning member and would like to rejoin your house WITHOUT first being resorted, please PM your Prefect(s) or comment here. If you have been sorted at least once, you may rejoin at any time, so long as you did not leave due to being banned. 8. If you are a returning member and would like to be resorted please keep in mind that you must have left hogwartsishome and all of its subcommunities at least 2 months prior to reapplying. If you have left HiH recently or held any positions (mod, prefect), please contact the voting mods to see if you should screen your application.9. And finally, please APPLY AS YOURSELF! Do not apply as a role-playing character, but as yourself. When your application is approved for sorting, members look to sort the person behind the application, and not a fictional character! The first time you are found to break a rule, you will be warned. The second time, you may find your application rejected. If you have issues with being warned or banned, please email or PM your Voting Mods. There is no way we can catch every offensive thing someone might say. If you see something that is getting out of hand, please contact one of the mods! Please note that the form might default to Rich Text Format when you type up your application. In order to make the HTML work, be sure to click the HTML tab in the upper right hand side instead. PLEASE REMEMBER TO ELABORATE; Not doing so may result in a majority of no votes, which will DELAY your sorting [FOR MEMBERS] -- PLEASE READ CAREFULLY! 1. Be sure to sign with your name and house in your vote. All votes must be in one comment -- if you forget to sign, please edit or delete your comment and repost it with the correct information. - Remember, signing with a sigtag or house pride icon gets you two points for your house per vote. - Signing with text only/no icon gets you one point. - Not signing at all gets you no points. - Please bold the house you are sorting the applicant in. 2. Use the Muggle vote if -- AND ONLY IF -- you feel the applicant is pushing for a specific house or if they are bashing one of the houses. If you don't feel comfortable voting for someone because the application is too short, or because you cannot confidently place the applicant in a specific house, this warrants a No-Vote. Muggle voted applicants have to wait 2 weeks before they can reapply, so please think carefully when voting! 3. If you've No-Voted an applicant, and they've elaborated, please delete or edit the No-Vote and repost the comment with the house you think they belong in. Do not place second comments under the original No-Vote. 4. Do NOT use Muggle Votes or No-Votes for any other reasons! Do not 'No-Vote' for grammatical errors or incorrect coding. Do not 'No-Vote' for House-Bashing either - that is what the Muggle vote is for. Read and vote correctly please! 5. Sigtags must be no bigger than a total of 470 pixels, or 100KB in filesize. Any bigger and they will not count towards points for your House. 6. No applicant bashing. If you are found to be rude or snarky towards the applicant, you will be punished. 7. No House bashing. This should go without saying within the community, but if your vote is found to be demeaning or otherwise offensive towards a House, you will also find yourself punished. 8. No replying to votes under any circumstances. If the applicant or another member (other than a Prefect or another Mod) replies to your vote, DO NOT respond back. Instead, contact your Voting Mod. Additionally, please remember to be civil when discussing votes with other members outside of platform_934. Every person's vote is a valid opinion; should you feel as if your vote is being threatened or challenged in an unfriendly way, feel free to e-mail the mod to ask for clarification and/or support.The first time you are found to have broken a rule (unless it is outlandish by all standards), you will get warned. The second time, you will be banned. Arguing against it in the community will not get you on our good side and could possibly move a warning to a ban. If you have issues with being warned or banned, email a mod. There is no way we can catch every offensive thing someone might say. If you see something that is getting out of hand, please do not hesitate to contact one of the mods. -- FOR MEMBER REFERENCE 1. The Top Sorter Levels can be found here. Please get into contact with your Prefects for more details. 2. For reference whilst sorting, please feel free to refer to the sorting cheat sheets.
