If people want to know, then ask, else it could just be a waste of time for the leaders. I know that I am way too busy than to respond to every single application.

...perhaps send the leaders an owl...

There is the option to be paid for housepost, so ask you HoH about that, and even though you don't see it as voluntary, where you can write whatever you want. Then I would think that you went to your HoH with an idea and then given a day for it.

As Min says, then you are most likely mentioned in the club for your house, so there you have your spot. The official jobs is something that is for the whole site, where site, where house post is things only seen in the different houses.

I do want to mention that in my experience as a Chief Editor, then it is one of the hardest jobs to fill, because there is a lot of expectations for the people. Like you have to write in a certain style, where house post are more free in what it is you do.

To the point about the joblist, then it does matter, because let us say there are 6 writers for each house and 6 journalists for the 2 newspapers, then it will be 6 lines long, which is far more than there is of ATs and sometimes that can really be too long. I don't want to go even further down to see who the BS team are, if there are problems with people's backstories.

To be honest... I don't get why this should be needed, if you are already written into the club.

capitalizing doesn't matter anymore in Peeves

They are hired as journalists, but they are just hidden :) the joblist would be too busy if every houseboard writer were there.

With the colour, then what about people who already have a job but get a noticeboard post? I would hate that my team members don't want to show off their own team's colours, if it was another colour than the journalist one.

If it was the same as the journalist colour, then the journalist section would be too crowded and I don't think anyone would want to join my paper, if it was such a bloated thing.

It should be easier to hit on "bad" homework, because there are more things that you can give advice on, where you perhaps could give tips on how to make a better and more improved piece of homework.

Even though I am not Australian, then I think it is a wonderful idea. We have three English speaking sites (where two of them are in the almost same timezone), so I think it would be amazing for the people, who are from the eastern parts of the world. That way they can be able to play Quidditch at a time, which isn't when they are at work or when they are supposed to sleep.

I hope this becomes a reality for all the Australian people, who are wanting a nice community, which is in a timezone that allows them to be wonderful. 

There are already dormitories :)

It is not 180 words, it is 180 characters, which should be easy enough to hit.
This is way better than feedback, which is just: "Hey, this is good. Good job." Which is already 23 words, so I don't see why you can't write things such as constructive criticism to the homework.
Perhaps the person hasn't written hasn't written a very long assignment, but then try to give ideas for how they could do it better in the future.... also look at that... I have written far more than 180 characters just writing this reply.
