I got a Pottermore account and had it activated on September 27th. Not only did waiting so long frustrate me- I ended up HATING it! I gave my id to my friend Megan who didn't manage to get one.

The only thing I like was the sorting. Others meh. Not that much interaction.

Same here. I was kind of expecting something where you create yourself as a wizard and can visit each room and talk to other pottermore people, where you only use the storyline if you want to

Well, I read a lot of press conference information and interviews and things that were released, so I knew not to expect an MMORPG or anything super interactive. But, I was still a crazy fan who stayed up all night on the first night of the Quill contest and got in, and then stayed up all of the subsequent nights to aim for a second account for a friend that was camping and had no internet. So, to say I wasn't disappointed when I got in (which I think was rather earlier than most people, because I was able to duel before they took it down and almost all of the people I talked to didn't have that opportunity until they very recently relaunched it .__.) would be a lie.
However, I liked the interactive bits. Diagon Alley, Ollivander's, Sorting. And some of the information was great. Like the stuff on wands and Hufflepuff.
...Yeah. [/font]

Yeah, I wish it was more interactive, too. Plus, they need to get the other books up; otherwise, there's basically nothing to do. It looks awesome, though, and a lot of the extra content is interesting, but there needs to be more interaction.

I wasn't expecting it to be extremely interactive, but I do like it. I love reading the extra info about different characters, the classes, and the wands. I also loved the sorting. I do wish there were other ways to earn points besides just dueling or potions because they get boring after a while. But over all, I'm satisfied with it.
And I laughed when I read that one of Quirrell's hobbies was pressing wild flowers. (When I rule the world, I'll plant flowers! -AVPM)

I was disappointed because I was expecting something different. But I ended up being okay with it. I enjoy reading the background stories. McGonagall is amazing. And I think that when the other books are released on the site, I'll enjoy it more. But hey, at least myHogwarts is gonna come out this year. That's what I thought Pottermore was going to be like.

I'm disappointed that it's taking so long for me to be able to get on it.

I got in the last day of the Magic Quill thing. I really enjoyed the sorting and getting my wand but I was kind of hoping for a MMORPG type thing or a giant online dictionary containing everything related to Harry Potter, canon and non-canon. Everything canon supplied by Rowling herself, of course.
I really liked reading all the extra stuff, though. I learned new things about the series and was given more ideas for head canons and fan fictions! XD But everything else kind of sucks. And I want to go to Chamber of Secrets but it won't let me.... bleh..

It will probably come out a couple of months after it's opened to the public. I was expecting that, too. But myHogwarts is going to be so cool! That will probably give us what we want and more. Registration starts this summer! So excited!
