@Elliot: You are correct, the prop shown in Dafne91's post is indeed my creation. Thanks for the defense of recasting another member's work.
In this case I don't mind sharing the names of the fonts as they were just my version of what the contents of the form might look like and dafne is not trying to recreate that prop.
As to the use of the term "Blood Traitor" in my poster I don't disagree with you and I did think long and hard about using that term.
I decided to use it because when the Ministry was under the control of "You Know Who" and his followers and the MBRC was formed it was a very dark time in the Wizarding world where muggle-borns were being persecuted and where pure bloods harboring or sympathizing with them were basically labeled as traitors. It is a harsh term that was used by many pure bloods in the wizarding world during those days so I could absolutely see the MBRC using it in this way. I think it carries about the same negative conotation as the terms "MudBlood" and "Muggle-born".
However, I don't want to offend people so I will remove the poster if too many people don't like the term.
@Dafne91: the fonts are Baron Kuffner and Old Rubber Stamp.
