theres no pants

Just a small think I would like to see. When you're grading and you provide a paragraph of feedback, the text box doesn't expand as you write. I just think that either making the text box bigger or having it expand would be more convenient for when I read over my feedback :) Thank you for reading this! 

I think it would be awesome to make House Points not only more realistic to how they are in canon, but also to make them more accurate when it comes to grading. 

It has already been suggested, but allowing management "working" in Hogwarts (HoH, professors, prefect leads, HM) to give or take House Points would be amazing. We could have a set list of how many points to be given/taken. For example - if a user is frequently seen being kind to others in chat and helping them find their way around they could get 5 House points. Or if they are breaking rules constantly and given an official warning they would lose 10-20 House points. This would encourage users to follow the rules, and also to make the site a more welcome place for all! 

Another thing that could use an update would be that grading punishments take away House Points. It's not really fair those that speed grade and get punished to still be earning more points than those doing so correctly. I have been told this was a glitch that has been fixed, but I figured I'd add it here just in case the points were still remaining when someone was punished. If they are taken, disregard XD <3 

Pets are really hard to take care of. They require food twice a week and with the new interest, its harder to keep them well-fed and happy. I would just like a bigger reward for happy pets than just a bit of XP. Maybe like 5 obols a day, or achievements or something.

It would be lovely if the option to do extra credit work or projects was available, as it would be true to the harry potter cannon, as we always see hermione doing extra work, and neville doing extra herbology activities. 

As well extra-curricular activities would be excellent, not just in the form of chat rooms. if i recall rightly, there were things like gobstones club, frog choir, and of course Dumbledore's Army. it would be lovely to include this on the website, and make it interactive for users, rather than just a chatroom. 

I think it’d be a good suggestion to have an option to opt out of group chats, especially if it’s an extremely busy one that you don’t have much interest in.  :)

I thought it would be quite useful if there was an option to bundle items you want to send (perhaps a starter pack of school books) and then send it at once! This saves a lot of time and could help other users help new users if they want to gift more than one thing. It would 'unbundle' when it reaches the receiver. I don't know if this is an option but I think it'd be nice.

I think that a lot of people put a lot of time and effort into their backstory, and it would be great if we could leave comments about them to let people know how great they are, or if asked for from others, a critique on their backstory. I think that this would not only encourage others, but also help people write better if that is what they are looking for.

I noticed that when I'm reading forums, in the Great Hall for example (this happens other places besides the Great Hall but using it as an example), I can't open the posts that people make as a new tab. I don't know if that's just my browser being weird or what haha

This is just a small idea, but it could be useful, or at least more fun sometimes to know if there's a Player Character who has a Non-IG job at the school, like Healer, Caretaker, and other members of the Support staff.

(I asked about our Healer another user, who had joined WoP EU much earlier than me, but they said it's probably an NPC. Later I discovered accidentally that we have PC Healer while stalking someone's Profile Text.)

It could be marked maybe in the 'Personnel at School' book in the Library, if there's a PC or NPC in a position.
Maybe NPCs could have names too, and be described somewhere else (NPC Archive?), so we could refer them in topics coincidently.
