We (the players on the server) think there should be a floo network warp for every classroom. Many of us on the server would be willing to round up the galleons needed for all of it, we think the best way to achieve this would be a donation chest in the great hall or somewhere like that.

While I believe this to be handy, and certainly convenient, I'd like to point out my only real concern: The role play aspect. While it'd be infinitely convenient to be able to do this, it takes the fun out of having to run to class because you got lost, or finding a secret room on your way to Flying, and things like that. Harry Potter had to find his way to class, getting lost and wishing he had a map(Look in the first movie. :3) and adding something like this would take away from that aspect. Also, there would be no need really at all for Guides to classes if you can hop in the Leaky Cauldron fireplace and get to class instantly.

This is true, and remember that in the book, it took Harry and Ron about a week to get to the GH without getting lost for the first time, and he didn't get a map (aka The Marauders Map) until his 3rd year, so this would take away the Hogwarts school feeling if we could just warp to classes

Mhm, agreed. I had a lot of fun exploring the castle and looking for classrooms when I first came on. :D

I like the idea, but Andrew has a point.

Well players could still explore/run to class and all that if they wanted to. I like finding the classrooms as well but there's not always time to, so this could make it easier for when people run out of time.

Here's what I think: I don't know if this is possible within the code of the Floo system, but perhaps we could make it so the fireplace should only be lit 5 minutes prior to a class, and only 5 minutes prior, so people still have to explore, but can make it to class quickly if they're running behind.

If that isn't possible with the code, you could also just keep the fires in every classroom unlit until five minutes or whatever time before class.

I know that I am kind of late, but I think that it was a pretty good idea. Oh well!
