I'm going to say Slytherin because I DID get a vibe. But I am not doing this in good conscience. You dont seem to be prepared to show much dedication to the site, and I think this is KEY to belonging to this community.

You must understand that I was VERY torn with this application. I really hope that if you re-apply you approach us with a better attitude.

Better attitude? Well sor-ry for offending you.

YES! A better attitude would help you out quite a bit. Quite frankly (and since you are so frank with people I feel comfortable dishing out what you seem so good at) you are very pushy. What? You dont think you have an attitude that may turn people off? Look at the response you gave me.

You did not offend me, so don't take such delight in assuming so. I simply stated what I think of your application.

It lacks organization. You seem to lack the willingness to be dedicated to the community:

I'll prolly sort for other students...I can read questions, answer and ask them, but I doubt I'll have time for any debating.

This just doesn't show much dedication to me. Perhaps I'm wrong though. I'd be the first to admit to that.

Your house descriptions really didnt appeal much to me...I expected a bit more from you.

I say this in defense of myself since I think your comment was a bit out of line, however I think you should re-apply...I'd just like to see a bit more enthusiasm for the community and a bit more effort on the application.

I don't know what you're expecting, but it's not my fault if I don't have time. If you don't want me here because I have a life outside of my computer, that's fine. I don't need to be here or anything. And I don't need your approval.

Again, I don't know what you were expecting, but I'm not going to make things up. I trust what J.K. Rowling says about the Houses, as she kinda made them up. I'm not going to make things up so I can have my "own opinion" when I'm just agreeing with what J.K. herself said. I don't think that my opinions of the houses should carry such a strong amount of weight on this application ( ... )

I'd put you in Slytherin, but really, if you don't like the house, I can't put you in there. (I'm not that spiteful, and I'm sure all the other Slytherins here would be pretty pissed off having a memeber in there house that didn't even want to be there.) I'm going to have to Squib you for a lot of the reasons stated above me. Your attitude didn't bug me so much, because I kind of had the same one (though, now I'm in love with this community and I practically spend all my time on here), but if you'd elaborate more and be less wishy-washy with your answers then I'd be able to sort you.

I am not sure where to start. I will not vote you into a house that you view with such disdain. That's not fair to you or to that house. Honestly, Slytherin was the only vibe I got from this application. I know that people are now trying to explain the squib votes, and I commend you on your desire to know what you could have done better. Still, I cannot sort you into a house that you seem to dislike so much. Squib. I'm very sorry, but I really did not see a fair alternative.

I feel bad for you -_- Fixing up your form so much and still getting squibbed. *shrugs* Sorry. ; I don't see how they can't place you. I get a definite Gryffindor vibe. *not a part of this community, but felt like mentioning*

I know it's not my place..but maybe better/more questions would help? I found it difficult to truly respond to these questions when I tried here. ^^; Just a bit of advice..^^ Take it as you will.

Thanks so much for your comment! When I reapply (if I do...I don't know, another one of friends told me she was treated kinda poorly here...) I think I'm going to add a couple questions (Hey, they never actually said you couldn't, right? Lol!). I think they put waay to much weight on the houses question, though. Why is it such a crime to view things the way Harry does? So basically, Harry himself couldn't be sorted because he hates Slytherin??

I have to agree with you completely.; Opinions on houses/other matters should be allowed to be voiced. I, myself, was squibbed here, and I thought it was pretty unfair. *shrugs* It seems elitist here to me. *hug*!

Yay! *returns hug*
