Zetaboards!
Once again the awesome Zetaboards were updated and this meant what exactly for us?
Well Nick explains it best as he usually does HERE
Forum Reorganisation:
We've all been there, the constant scrolling - the tireless, exhausting rolling of finger over the wheel on the mouse! Is there a medical term for wonky mouse finger Anyhow there is far less scrolling to do now as forums have been changed. The student lounge has 'magically' moved and another classroom has appeared, so make sure you all avail of this.
More info can be found... HERE
Character Spotlight:
One of our senior (as in time on site and not just age ) members was chosen for the character spotlight and I have to say she thoroughly deserved it. Estrella Styx is simply an awesome character. So make sure to read her biography, character development and relationship thread. We'll be keeping an eye on the biographies, so always make sure your own is up to date - you just never know when we might choose you
Summer Raffle
The Summer raffle came to it's conclusion and Professor Cyndi Weasley became our very own 'Little Miss Sunshine', while Shaylah Rouge took the grand prize. Congratulations Cyndi and Shaylah!
Wiki Updates
After the site poll, the HNZ Wiki has received fresh content and exciting new sections.
There is now a link to the wiki in the submenu on every page, right beside site documentation.
New content includes: Library books, Daily Prophet Archives, and (by popular request) a section to post information about the person behind your characters.
The "OOC Index", as Nick is calling it, can be found here and we would encourage you all to peruse it then add yourself if you feel so inclinded.
Thanks as well to all Slaves of the Nicktator who have been helping to update the wiki, legends the lot of you.
Site Poll Concluded:
Another conclusion was our site poll , thank you to all our members who took the time out to participate in it. We really do appreciate it. The site staff are discussing the results and the ideas brought up in the topic. Please continue to give more suggestions, ideas, feedback etc we're always happy to receive them.
Advanced Linkage Skillz:
It is now possible to link to specific pages on the site documentations page now.
Now when you click a link in the site docs, it updates the URL of the page. You can then just copy/paste from your address bar to link back to that section.
Example:

New Application Forms:
I'm sure those of you who have been applying for stoof lately have loved the new webpage layout which is sooo much easier all around. Well to these Nick has added the Professors and Shopkeepers application forms. Three cheers... hip hip ... okay maybe not everyone is quite as excited as me.
All applications are now officially in the webpage format!

<SIZE size="150">Halloween Feast:
The Halloween Feast has begun and will run right up until Wednesday so please be sure to get your costumes on and some great rps up and running. Play some good old dunking for apples or something or if you are in the mood, watch two professors about to battle it out for the right to be the most awesome hombre at the party. Of course we think Professor Spencer and Professor Prodan are equally awesome but if older guys aren't your thing, don't forget the Brotherhood Auction is on and those boys need your bids!!! Start spending that hard earned money ladies
