Here in the Potterwatch board will be fairly simple threads. One will not post like one normally would in the other boards. It's a special board. Posts here will only consist of a code name (River, Rodent, Rapier, etc.) and what your character says.
Now, not everyone will have to be a part of the Potterwatch crew, and the NPC's can be played by each person if one wishes to do so (Such as Lee, who founded the Potterwatch radio station), for the broadcasts are live, and someone could stumble in on the station (usually well hidden and if your character does so, please post an explanation of how they found it in the post), or if Death Eaters come to attack during the broadcast, who knows? That's up to you, the creators of the events that will happen.
To help provide complete clarity, here is an example thread. Note: it will not be very good, and not well thought out.
River: Welcome to Potterwatch, where you will find all your anti-You-Know-Who coverage!
Royal: Today we bring to you the updates on the new regime. On September 2nd, we have received reports that the Ministry of Magic was broken into by none other than Harry Potter. Those of us at Potterwatch commend Harry's actions, but we do not suggest that anyone tries to follow in Harry's footsteps.
Rodent/Rapier: Well if everyone was following in Harry's footsteps then You-Know-Who would just have to follow the line of people to find Harry. We wouldn't want that, right folks?
River: Thank you Rodent.
Rodent/Rapier: I told you it was Rapier!
River: In any case, this week there were ten deaths. It was of a young muggle foster home, when Bellatrix Lestrange, reportedly, killed all of those in the home, including two kids younger than five years of age. Let us all give a moment of silence for those ten muggles who died.
-moment of silence-
River: Thank you for tuning into this week's Potterwatch! Tune in next week with the password: Sirius.
Also, here is a list of the code names for reference if you don't know what your character's codename is. To get a codename, just say your character and their codename in response to this thread.
Fred Weasley - Rodent/Rapier
George Weasely - Hole-y
Ginny Weasley - Little Red (In Reference)
Kingsley Shacklebolt - Royal
Lee Jordan - River
Remus Lupin - Romulus
Teddy Lupin (Infant) - Kicker
Teddy Lupin (Future) - Regal
Nymphadora Lupin - Rainbow
Anelisa Lafayette - Remy
