EH was around for five years before we moved to this new site and the older characters in particular have developed substantially over that time period. The 'Previous Plot Files' section is intended to act as a sort of filing cabinet of background information for every character on EH detailing the threads which contributed to causing changes - minor or major - in the lives/personalities of said character.

Every character on this site should create a thread on their appropriate house board titled with their full name (surname first, like on the profiles). They can then write posts on this thread, each one describing the brief contents of a thread (either past or present) that their character was involved with and how that thread changed their character.

Each post should start with the title of the thread it is refering to. It should either be in bold or underlined like this:

Thread Name Here

or like this:

Thread Name Here

It may also be useful to post a link to the thread (or the page itself if the thread is a long one and it was just one specific incident in that thread that you were refering to) in case anyone wants to read it for themselves.

The idea of the filing cabinet is so that it is never necessary to refer someone back to the old site for information as it will be readily accessible here on the new site.

Happy posting :)

OKay that makes sense but where has my plot gone? I saw that it had been moved, but it didnt say where.

The logical move would be into the Ravenclaw thread but it's not there, where is it?

Curiosity compels me to ask, would it be appropriate to post background stories in this area as well? Not like the ones in the profile but actual full on narratives of past events in your characters life. I bring this up as my character has no real post history on the old site and I think it would be fun and encourage new players to participate and feel included.
