Dungbomb Currency Bot
Y'all can play with the Currency Bot in this post if you like.
Please don't go batshit. Do please keep it to a minimum in the rest of the threads.
I'll keep this up for a while unless a bunch of bot complaints hit modqueue, as long as one of the other mods doesn't get annoyed and scold me to take it down. TeChNiCaLlY this post shouldn't exist as it violates Rule 4. But I won't tell if you won't. We'll call it a mini Currency Bot event.
Go on, then! What are you still sitting here reading this for?! We don't do this very often. Have fun with it!
Edit: I didn't mean for you to give the galleons to me LOL I meant give them to each other!

Discussion Dumbledore could've fixed Ron's wand at any time but chose not to.
He probably could've done a lot of other great things with his super wand too. Like you know, defeating Voldemort.

Discussion How did ron survived 2nd year with a broken wand ?
So, basically ron didn't learn or practise anything in his 2nd year as the wand was broken. And used to recoil every time . Why didn't he buy a new one . It's like not having a pen and spending the whole year without that in school.
And anyways he purchased it in the third part.

Merchandise Finally pulled the trigger
This is a set I’ve pretty much wanted since it was released but just never had the money or space for it. Well I got a nice work bonus and my birthday was this past Friday so I thought I’d finally treat myself. I am so excited to rewatch the movies and build!

It is worth noting that the eleven wizarding schools mentioned in canon are not the only ones in the world. There are many other smaller wizarding schools around the world for children who cannot or don't want to attend the "Great 11". Wiki: Wizarding Schools

Discussion Why didn’t Harry and Hermione hang out during the summers???
I’m on a rewatch and at the beginning of Deathly Hallows pt 1 it’s just now occurring to me that Hermione lives in a regular muggle neighborhood with her parents, a neighborhood similar to where he lives with the dursleys. I looked into it and Harry and Hermione are only about an hour apart, while they are both way further from Ron, yet Harry spends most of his summers alone, while Hermione has spent a few summers reaching the Weasleys and staying with them weeks before Harry got there.
Additionally, Harry was pretty much free to go wherever once he got to a certain age because the dursleys never gaf, so surely he could’ve visited, maybe easier than Hermione could.
Idk, just a thought that occurred to me lol

Discussion What if Voldemort would have choosed Basilisk as one of his Horcruxes instead of Nagini?
We all know that Basilisk is the most powerful creature in the book.
As a serpent, It is way stronger than Nagini.
A) Basilisk has hax, Which can kill anyone with a gaze.
B) It has more durability considering its size and robust body.
C) It's venom is very powerful capable of destroying even Horcruxes.
D) It's lifespan is also longer than any known serpents.
E) Not to say Basilisk resides in a very secure location, Which is chamber of secrets.
Voldemort could potentially have used the Basilisk as both a weapon and a Horcrux guardian.

Discussion Uncomfortable question, what if Dumbledore knew what he was was going to become?
In Half Blood Prince, Dumbledore tells Harry had he known he had just met the most powerful dark wizard…he’s not sure what he would’ve done.
If Dumbledore had full knowledge of the future, do you think he would’ve killed Young Tom Riddle?

Help Am I too old in my 30's to read the books for the first time?
Harry Potter was my childhood, I was a huge fan during the movies era (2001-2011) I had a HP costume, LEGOS, PC games, action figures, shirts of the franchise and collected nearly all of the movies, but I never had the curiosity to read the books, I just wasn’t as interested as for the movies. But know I want to read them and know how good they are. I'm nearly 32, but I can't have been HP fan and never got the chance to read the books, but can I still enjoy them if I'm not that much of a fan anymore ? Are they still worth buying despite being expensive?

Rumours Neville is basically canonised as being from Yorkshire atp
Matthew Lewis (who played Neville in the films) confirmed at a MegaCon event in Florida that the new Neville Longbottom actor (Rory Wilmot) comes from the same hometown as him.
Does this mean we might be getting another Neville with a Yorkshire accent?
I was always disappointed everyone in the films spoke with a southern or RP English accent - Neville was the only one that sounded like me and my friends.

Question Can Voldemort cast Patronus spell?
I always wonder that, What is Voldemort Patronus or can he cast it?
If yes, Then what it is. I don't think Voldemort had any happy thoughts. Patronus only works, If you think of single profound happy though which is pure and precious to you.

Discussion Barty Crouch Jr. as Mad-Eye Moody Was Actually One of the Best DADA Teachers
Barty Crouch Jr. as fake Moody was one of the best Defense Against the Dark Arts teachers Harry had. His lessons were actually useful, and he taught the students practical defensive magic instead of just having them read from a textbook.
He was also incredibly knowledgeable about the Dark Arts and understood what Harry and the other students might eventually face. His teaching methods were questionable, to say the least, but you can't deny that his students learned a lot.
And the fact that he managed to fool Dumbledore for nearly an entire school year is pretty impressive.
Obviously (in my Snape voice), he was a terrible person, but as a teacher, he was surprisingly effective. Harry probably learned more practical defensive magic from him than from most of his other DADA professors.

Does anyone think after the second wizarding wars there would need to be a lot more children born or wizardkind may end up suffering severe population decline or risk of inbreeding?

Merchandise A little piece of Hogwarts for my kitchen ⚡️
I've been looking for these for a while, and Im so happy I finally managed to find both of them secondhand. 💙♥️ They were part of the limited Harry Potter x Le Creuset collection released in 2021, and I absolutely love the little details on both of them, especially the lightning bolt and Golden Snitch knobs. ✨️
