Why did you join Snitchseeker?

We all know that a mutual love of Harry Potter brought us here and lots of people seem to explore SnitchSeeker before they ever actually decide to become a member. But now that you're here, what made YOU sign up? Let us know what it was that attracted you to SnitchSeeker and made you want to become a member. Why this site and not another Harry Potter site?

Rules & Guidelines for this thread:

1. Before posting, please make sure you have read through the Newbie Process, Snitchseeker's Rules & FAQ, and perused the Site Resources forum.
2. This is not a questions thread. If you don't understand something and/or have a real question, go to The Question Thread.
3. This is not a discussion thread. Rather, this is a place for you to share your personal experience and journey to joining our Snitchseeker community.
4. Please do not limit your answer to 'BECAUSE I LOVE HARRY POTTER!" Snitchseeker site staff really want to know what made becoming a member on our site look so appealing so that we may continue to grow and cater to our members' interests.
5. No spam. This means no posting off topic or posting multiple times in a row.

I've been on and off with the idea of creating some HP related film shorts for a few years and never found the drive to do them. Recently this fell back into my "I must think about this immediately and incessantly" list and I decided I should probably get involved in a community and I obviously picked this one because it's the best... If I'm completely honest I watched FB again recently and decided i can't do worse than WB so why not have a go.

I found the book seekers challenges on StoryGraph and then learned about the forum and wanted to join to complete the challenges.

I joined because I have been a big fan of Harry Potter since childhood, but an even bigger fan is my mom who has read all the Harry Potter books and also books that are not by J.K. Rowling but by a writer who also wrote a good book about his son. James Potter, I listen with open mouth when she tells me about the events that take place in those books.

Meet people who I can talk in depth about the HP world. I don't know anyone IRL who would discuss the many topics associated with it

[ImMyOwnBoggart]

I make aesthetics, and I came across this site trying to save a picture saying "Arithmancy" so I clicked and it sounded interesting, so I joined. So far, I am not disappointed!

My whole purpose in joining into the Wizarding World at this point, is to study Rowling's works more closely, and experience more of how she did what she did.

Initial interest is in character development - most particularly, a review of the life and character Snape - related to comparisons with another character on another Forum.

I do not write fanfiction - but I do write about the works of authors. Having edited two authors' books, one just published, and another about to be published, I'm currently involved in writing my own.

It may well be I'll have something to write about Rowling's works before I die as well. There are things to be said.

I miss the old days of the internet where internet forums were more prominent. I used to browse different forums back in the day and believe they have a sort of lingering charm. I suppose it's a mix of love for the HP universe and nostalgia.

[Mystogan]

Boredom tbh..but wondered if here were any Harry Potter forums out there

[Ramon Ravenclaw]

I'm 35 and just started reading the series for the first time (only saw the first movie). Nearly finished with book 1, but am already hooked. Can't wait to explore the series further.

I joined the forum to connect with other Potterheads and discuss the wizarding world with fellow-enthusiasts. Will do my best to avoid spoilers! lol

[SlytherinCharityCase]

I joined because I want to participate and keep up with all the discussions happening here, Harry Potter related or not. I’m excited to talk about the things I love with like-minded people.

Hello fellow Potterheads. It seems most of us are here for the same reasons. I only discovered this forum recently despite my now PhD equivalency in the franchise. I'm just enthused that I can openly express my endearment for the books and movies and the world with the comfort in knowing that on the opposite end of the screen is hopefully someone whom shares my sentiments.

[OtterySt.Catchpole]

It's been so long ago I can't rightly remember . . . but I made wonderful, beautiful friends here once upon a time, and that's probably why I joined. That and the fanfiction. Gods, do I love to write . . .

[ThePotterVault]

I have join to see if there are any people in this community who share the passion for the Artbox trading card that were released between 2004 and 2011 for all the films.

[Hansel]

I didnt know about this forum until today

[mainger]

It's smaller than the subreddit. That will hopefully make it possible to actually get to "know" some fellow members.

I joined the site because I'm looking for a fun HP forum with a friendly community. The last site I was on didn't have much of a community because they can't get any new members to join there...
