| ⚡general rules⚡ | |||||
| These are the rules for the whole community, this includes hogwartsishome and all of its subsidiaries.Do not bash other Houses. Anywhere. Doing so will lose your House points. Also, do not post about how your house is misrepresented or stereotyped wrongly. We've seen it all before -- stick that sort of thing in your common rooms.Do not use derogatory terms or incessant obscenities. We realize that how offensive something is depends upon who is being insulted, but a lot of things are obvious and we expect you to be smart enough to know the difference. If a Mod or Prefect sees something of this nature, we will warn you (or take points, depending on the severity and if you've been warned previously); if you see something offensive that an official does not see, please email us.Use appropriate spelling and grammar in your posts -- anything with excessive net speak or other severe mistreatments of the English language will be deleted, and the poster will be warned.The start of any in-community drama or flame wars will result in major point loss. Encouraging drama will also result in points loss. If a controversial topic is posted, you are free to speak your opinion -- you must, however, respect everyone else's right to do the same.Do not post general questions about the community or activities. Please email the appropriate official or the Mods, or perhaps use your common room to ask other members of your house. Any general questions or complaints about the community that are posted will be deleted.The use of sockpuppet LiveJournals is strictly prohibited. Any suspicion of this act will result in immediate banning. Suspicion includes but is not limited to... Journal recently created, little or no friends, little or no posts, little or no comments. Also, we keep track of IP Addresses. You are forewarned.If you feel harassed by another member either in instant messages, email, or LJ comments, please inform them that you wish for them to stop or you will report them. If they continue, please contact us with all of the evidence so that we may deduct points accordingly. Please note that this is only for situations that are related to HiH and its subcommunities.Please keep all content, sigtags, icons, posts, within the community's rating. This community is rated in line with the BBFC 15. To find out more about that rating, please refer to the 'rating' section below.Cheating in any form will not be tolerated. This includes sharing answers, collaborating unless specifically allowed by the activity guidelines, and abusing officials access to view answers. Voting fraud is also prohibited, including telling others to vote for you or identifying your entry to others. If someone votes for their own entry, their vote will not be counted, their entry will be disqualified, and 10 points will be docked from their house. Any other form of cheating will receive a more severe penalty based on severity of the offence.Respect each other. The first time you break any of our rules (unless it is outlandish by all standards), you will be warned. Thereafter, it will result in a point loss for your House -- or worse, banning. If you have issues with a warning or point deduction, please email us; posting complaints about the issue will most likely move the point loss or warning to a permanent banning. Hogwarts is Home operates on a three strike system. Break the rules three times and we will have to ask you to leave the community.RATINGThe community is rated according to the BBFC's 15 rating.

| ⚡participation⚡ | |||||
| We do not require much of our members when it comes to participation, but we do have a few guidelines. We note who participates each term -- at the end of the year we produce a list of people who have participated in at least 1 activity or joined the community within a term (a term lasts 4 months). With that list we then remove anyone who is not a member of hogwartsishome and their common room. We then post this list to the community and allow people who do not meet the above criteria 24 hours to say they'd like to stay. After that we conduct the members cut. If you'd like to leave/re-join HiH, please use your house-specific post! Gryffindor | Hufflepuff |

Slytherin Reminder: leaving posts in the main comm will result in 10 points gone and a ban from returning for 6 months. |
