You are a unique enough teacher to be a good head of house, and I would accept you. But what would the heads of houses do? If there is a good reason for there to be heads of houses, I will agree for them to be set up, but if there is no real reason, then I say why bother?thread
Yes... having heads of house might be kind of pointless. If a teacher wants to adopt a bias towards one house, then they can do so... but otherwise I don't see much of a reason for us to have them.
Pointless? Hmmmmm.......let's see if I can't think up a point to having heads of houses.....
Then again, isn't this site pointless? Isn't any roleplaying site pointless? Isn't just about anything done for recreation and fun pointless?
Rolep-playing sites are all about fun, and as such, having a higher position or title to tack onto one's fictional character might seem appealing, as it does to me. Another reason, of course, is that this is based off of Harry Potter (duh) and in the books each house had a teacher that was in charge of it.

Heads of Houses? I'd usually say "What a wonderful idea!" But I'm going to have to say no on that at the moment. We don't even have enough PREFECTS for the houses at the moment, let alone giving teachers power over them. Tell you what Vincent (and all you other teachers out there). The moment we have a Head Boy, Head Girl, and AT LEAST two Prefects in each house, I will decide whom becomes Head of Houses.
Well.. I disagree with your logic. Technically, it is a smarter idea to make prefects secondary; a Teacher head of a house is truly an authoritative figure, but a prefect is more minor (*cough* dungeons *cough*); my strongest support on that is that the houses are not yet large enough to require second prefects. Either way, I feel that it is more important to think of teacher heads than prefects and head boys/girls (though those are needed, too). I guess that made sense...

Are you, are you Coming to the tree Where I told you to run, so we'd both be free? Strange things did happen here No stranger would it seem If we met up at midnight in the hanging tree.
Well, since our good friend Vincent lacked a really good reason, I read around a bit and thought about it and eventually came up with something. Since Muryllis had mentioned, I decided I should check out the topic. This gave me a better opinion of why we need prefects and heads of houses along with a head boy/girl. From what I have seen (from that topic), just being prefect does not show that the student chosen has exceptional magical skill and has demonstrated it at this site, so therefore demands respect and has skill more exceptional than other students who may be of the same grade. Also, looking at some students' actions, I believe that we severly need more authority. Since I understand the prefects, the teachers, and talon can't be on all the time, I am all for having more prefects, a head boy and girl, and heads of houses. Heads of Houses and Head Boy/Girl will take and obviously have demonstrated lots of skill at RPing, and therefore would be standards of excellence who are better than students in magic, so they wouldn't believe for some strange reason they could overpower them. Also, it would mean we would have more governing power to go by, so we would see more respectful students.
