Hello TEHians! Because Ylana (I will strangle you for this) has mentioned the Riots of 2009, and people want to know about it, I shall post this backstory up 
Last year, H: TL was alive. We started the year with good spirits and I only had to ban a few rowdy Slytherins that were taking the michael. Then came the second match of the Quidditch season: Gryffindor v Hufflepuff. Needless to say, Gryffindor won the match but Hufflepuff quidditch captain, Mina AKA Sarah Tash started an argument with Quidditch Captain for Gryffindor, Ylana Thomson AKA Lauren. There was a rather large fight that spanned on for 20, maybe 25 posts. In the end, there was smiting and bumping and all sorts of swearing going on. I had no choice but to wade in there and lock the board, cut off Karma and censor words. I banned both Lauren and Mina for a day and they weren't very happy. We banned both players for a match and then all was well... Until the last match of the season, Slytherin V Ravenclaw. There was the famous Slythie Riots then and there were members banned, deleted even. Just when we had got everything back to normal.... I accidentally deleted the board :3
Lauren nearly killed me. Over the internet, of course.
Anyway... Hope that answers your questions!
It is ten years after Harry Potter has defeated Lord Voldemort and, for those ten years, things seemed peaceful in the wizarding world.
Until now.
The Death Eaters are back, and stronger than ever, ready to tear apart both the muggle and the wizarding world as they prepare to create their own regime based on the actions of one woman. They're killing and torturing muggles and muggleborns, halfbloods and purebloods - basically anyone they can lay their hands on.
Also, the Ministry is in disarray after several of their most prized employees have disappeared. The power to use the Killing Curse upon sight of any Dark Wizards and Witches has been granted to the Aurors.
Hogwarts has been infiltrated by the new and improved version of the ultimate Slytherin: even more cunning, spiteful and evil than before, all ready to do the bidding of the Unnamed One. The Ravenclaws have already succumbed to the Slytherins' 'persuasion', but will the Gryffindors and the Hufflepuffs follow suit?
Only you can decide.
Hogwarts. Now. Be there.
