Don't you all think it is kind of strange that the teachers in the second book sent Gileroy Lockhart to get Ginny? It seemed liked they all thouhgt that he was a fraud, or at least not any good, so I don't see why they would want to send him after her verses somebody more compentent.

Your thoughts?

That is exactly why they did send him. To get rid of him...

CoS pgs294-295

"Right," said Professor McGonagall, whose nostrils were flared, "that's got him out from under feet...."

wow, nice catch, GinnyX... lol
anyways Lockhart was an idiot. i would have slapped him in the face if i were Harry, and say "Who the hell said I wanted all this attention, its not my fault Colin Creevey keeps taking pictures of me" and i'd run away before he'd take points for Gryf ! LMFAOOOO. just wanted to mention that Smile ahha and he deserved it when he lost his memory.. *sigh.. that Fraud..

I suppose that quote proves it... but it still seems strange to me that the teachers would just totally give up on Ginny, especialy because Harry proved that it was possible to save her.

They didn't give up on her. They didn't know where the entrance was, so how could they have gone after her? They opted to send the students home so they would be safe. Other than that, the teachers didn't have any other options. They just needed the remaining students to stay safe and to figure out how to get DD back.
