Hello everyone, I hope you're all having a wonderful day/night!
Today I'd like to put forward a suggestion for something that has been bugging me, ever since I was sorted into Hufflepuff (> :D)
So, as it currently stands, when a pre-oak is sorted into their Hogwarts House (Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff or Slytherin (sorry, I like lists >:3)), this message appears in chat:
[Player] has been added to [House]!
Now, in my opinion, this doesn't look very appealing, and will most-likely look the same to new players. My suggestion will aim to change this :3
I suggest that instead of the message above, something along the lines of
[Player] has just been Sorted into [House]!
or
[Player] pulls the Hat over their ears...
"[House]!" the Sorting Hat shouts.
For an example,
Richela Lupin has just been Sorted into Hufflepuff!
or
Cosette Bell pulls the Hat over their ears...
"Slytherin!" the Sorting Hat shouts.
Something or anything along those lines would work well, as long as it pulls the player straight into the role-playing zone.
Anyway, do what you want with this, although I would really like to see this implimented. Even though it may seem so simple, it will have a huge impact (similar to Ryan Lockhart's suggestion for a new Welcoming message).
