Ideally, I'd probably say Ravenclaw, but I don't think we were shown enough of that House to properly judge it. Although the same goes for other two (Slytherin and Hufflepuff) as well. The only one that ever got any real exposure was Gryffindor, and even then it wasn't much.
Now I'll play your ghost as my ace, whenever I'm led astray.
But I am actually good, can't help it if we're tilted.
I'm in my right place, don't be a downer.
I'd like to think I'd be in Ravenclaw, but considering Ravenclaw's generally for the most intelligent, Gryffindor's for the brave and Slytherin is for the cunning, I'd probably be in Hufflepuff with the rest of the losers. ;__;
Don't try and defend it, everyone knows Hufflepuff sucks. :P
I'm gonna tap him like a maple tree. I'm gonna search him for some syrups. I'm gonna be having sex with him.
A question: do people tend to go on which they'd prefer to be in, simply because it's their favorite or their actual traits and where they most likley would go?
I'mjust curious! I won't be at all judgey about it.
And yet, by heaven, I think my love as rare,
As any she belied with false compare.
I go by my personality traits and values shared by the Ravenclaw house :)
I was very very happy when I was sorted in Pottermore :)

I haven't been sorted into Pottermore yet (was on holiday when the Magic Quill thing was going on) but I'm going on my academic results (straight A's), my humour (very dry, I think I'm quite witty sometimes), and the fact that I can come across as cold sometimes, I think I'm a Ravenclaw. I wouldn't mind being in Hufflepuff either though, I think I'd fit in there quite well. Everyone seems really nice in Hufflepuff :')

Both.
Although generally the traits are rather simplistic. For example, we all know that if it was done properly (rather than being convenient for the plot), Hermione would have went to Ravenclaw. I also dislike that Slytherin never seems to have any 'good' attributes associated with it.

A list of Slytherin traits, taken from the Harry Potter Wiki: traditionalism, resourcefulness, ambition, cunning, shrewd, leadership qualities, achievement-oriented, self-preservation, seeds of greatness (I'm not sure how that's a character trait, but oh well), intelligence, determination, certain disregard for rules.
With the exception of traditionalism, I would consider all of those 'good' attributes (and I certainly identify with them), but it really depends on how you use them. To quote from the same page:
Cunning and ambition are easily turned towards ill purposes, but are not inherently negative; furthermore, daring, intelligence, and loyalty can as easily become negative.
I'd love to be in Ravenclaw. And I am. it's the house i got sorted into on pottermore.

'Only available to those who are part of the Beta'. Wtf is Beta? And wasn't it supposed to be available to everyone by October?
WTF.
Beta is the testing phase, when the site is still being developed and built. Those taking part in beta are allowe into a limited area of the site and play around with the stuff there and make comments to the developers saying what we did and didn't like and what we'd like to see and so on.
Yes it was supposed to be open in october but for unknown reasons it's been delayed.

I mean from the books, which of course are always seen through Harry's perspective. It's almost always Slytherin=evil, which isn't true at all. Even though the Sorting Hat tries to impart some sort of balance into it, it just doesn't seem to work, at least that's what I've always taken from it.
