Articles/message boards are very important! They're great! Can we have a way to pin an article to the top of the board?

This could be most useful to Faction Leaders (HoH), because they could have one, overall welcome article that provides a bunch of information for folks to look at/come back to when needed. (You could argue that they could use the clubs for that, but I'd also argue that its better to have that information as many places as possible, for new users to encounter)

I think it could also be really helpful other places! For the event board, they could pin the current plot, in case there is a longer/ongoing plot, and other articles come out on that board during the same time. The plot could always be at the top, for people to come back to if they need to be reminded whats happening when. Even for the newspapers themselves, they could pin an article with more information on how to apply for journalist jobs, so people who were wondering while they were reading cool articles could find out that information right away, and not have to go all the way to the clubs just to get more information.

My hope is that this could be very similar to the function of pinning a topic in the topic areas, and be done by management/CE of that particular board.

Thanks for the consideration!

When a new shop item(s) is posted to a store, there is a spot on the front page that shows the new item(s) and what shop(s) you can get it from

hey,

somehow I can't uploud a gif even I have VIP. Some people said it need much time, like a half hour.

Pictures like png or jpg are loading like the next second, but when I try to upload a gif it looks like the "Save picture"-button doesn't work.

sorry for my bad english ..

I do not know if this was already reported by the staff, but I feel I have to write it in here, since it's been weeks. 

Since february, we've had the following issues with the "internal clock" of WoP:

-The day changes 7 hours after midnight. This means Gringotts's interests come later, and so does the beginning of a new week. 

-For some reason, if you open a new topic at Monday 1:00 AM (1 hour after midnight, when the week supposedly changes), your topic is going to display the right week (the new week). But if you go to the "main page", it is going to display the old week number. This can confuse the new users. As well as the interests, the main page displays the week change after 7 hours. 

-Curiously, the time of meals at the Great Hall stayed the same. Good. 

-VIP gifts arrived at the middle of the month, not at the start/end of one.

But the one that worries me the most, it's the fact that users aren't aging. The birthday day comes, and you don't age. 

We have to wait until our MoM or HM changes it manually. 

I guess it would help if other staff members had the power to fix ages, so it will be done quickly, but god, it is chaos to not have aging users. And it can be messy to keep track of birthdays, specially if your character is not a student anymore. And let's don't talk about the people who are out of WoP for a season, and they come back to a character with the wrong age (which means everything they roleplayed before is chronologically wrong, and they wouldn't know). 

I am worried about all of this. I guess is not that bad if it is just for a few weeks, maybe a few months, but it would be nice to see intentions of fixing it :(  WoP is amazing, it should not be getting ruined by these problems. 

I believe it would reduce stress on teachers if the assistant teachers had special access to grade years above their own.

Due to this restriction, this may cause Teachers to become biased towards hiring a graduate for the job or a higher year student- that reduces the inclusivity.

Currently it is not possible to gift wizard card unopened packs after their purchase or after getting them as a prize from the whispering wizard. 

 I believe it could be a good option, especially for people that already completed their cards collection and got leftovers from buying or as a prize, to be able to gift unopened packs. And since one can gift those packs already.

Letters are huge source of communication throughout the WoX site, like roleplaying and sending reminders and such. But sometimes the amount of notifications from a large group letter can become a little overwhelming. I've heard this voiced quite a few times by other users, and decided that the option of muting letters/Owls on WoX would be a good idea. Without the constant notifications, users could get some other-site work done more efficiently, and then get back to their letters later. If the muted option gets added, I'd hope for an unmute button as well, if a user ever changes their mind.

I'm only on WoN so not sure with regards other sites 'special relations' but on WoN we have a parabati competition which if you win and you have a parabati you get a ring and you can update your PT/BS but it would be amazing if you could have an actual relation which can only be given by the blue and/or green on site (so users don't use the relation if they've not entered and won the competition) so in WoN's sake you'd have your  regular relations and then parabati, just to make things more official and be able to show that relation off instead of a gift that gets hidden down in your trunk and a bit of info on your pt/bs
