something i've been wondering about for a while....

in the 6th book, after christmas, harry, ron, and ginny return to hogwarts by floo powder because "the ministry provided a one-off connection with the burrow".... this limitation was put there because of voldemort's return and the need for increased safety measures...

after voldemort was back and the ministry wanted to keep and eye on DD, they watched the fires of hogwarts in book 5.....

but how about the books before? before voldemort was back, there were no restrictions (as shown by sirius' conversations with harry in GOF..... and btw the lack of restrictions is really unsafe, and i wonder why DD didnt put any himself...)....

and so that makes me wonder......why didnt sirius just break into a wizarding family's home (like he did in GOF) and enter hogwarts through the fire in POA? why didnt wormtail just floo powder into hogwarts and stun harry and take him back to the graveyard in GOF, instead of constructing the elaborate Triwizard Tournament plan?.. well obviously, if they had done that, the stories would have been boring, but why did they overlook that.....?

yeah, those are just my thoughts.. would love to hear yours'

good question but there's a very simple answer.

if that'd have happened it'd have become a very boring and ordinary book. jkr has to create an acceptable drama :p

-Well, in GoF Voldermont was not really back, it was after GoF, so their was no need for protection...

and so that makes me wonder......why didnt sirius just break into a wizarding family's home (like he did in GOF) and enter hogwarts through the fire in POA?
-Well the wizarding world knew about his escape, so Dumby had alot of protection, their were the dementors and the teachers...and I dont think they mentioned it but they probably did have protection why didnt wormtail just floo powder into hogwarts and stun harry and take him back to the graveyard in GOF, instead of constructing the elaborate Triwizard Tournament plan?
Because well Dumby is much stronger then him, and I think Dumby was watching Harry very closely.
well obviously, if they had done that, the stories would have been boring, but why did they overlook that.....?
-They didn't really it was just that depending on how much danger the wizarding wold was in they protected it
:D
