With the new month, comes a new installment of POTM. It works like this:
You find a post you like and you nominate it for Post of the Month. You do this by quoting the post and adding the comment "Post of the Month" or if you think you can't pull it off, simply "POTM". A Mod will move your POTM Reply to this thread. Conversely you can right click on the "Link to Post" at the bottom of each post and Copy Link Location. Then post in this thread with "Post of the Month" (or "POTM" if you think you can), right click in the thread and Paste. You cannot nominate your own post ... I mean c'mon ... that's just really lame ... no matter how cool/funny/clever/poignant you think you were. Each post can only be nominated once. The first person to do so gets the nod. On the 1st of next month (or thereabouts, I mean, we're all working folks here, well most of us) we'll make a Poll with all the nominated threads and everyone here will be invited to vote for their favorite thread. You'll have about a month to vote. So at the end of next month we'll have a winner, or more accurately, two, because the original poster AND the person who nominated them wins. What do you win? Gems of course. The mods will pay the winners.
So, to sum up. - Make good posts. - Nominate good posts. - Vote for posts. - Profit. - Have a laugh.

In elementary school, we are taught that little boys pick on little girls because they love to watch their reactions, so if a little girl wants to be left alone, she needs to fail to react to anything the little boys do. I decided to try this same policy on a big boy who will remain nameless. Those of you who have been around the forum for a long time won’t have any trouble figuring out to whom I am referring. However, some of you haven’t been here as long, so I will give you a few hints. He is on staff, looks like a pile of bones, and his initials are GD. Watch out for him. He is dangerous! He and his team of wizards have been barraging my park nonstop with their nasty spells. My wizards and I have been working nonstop for months trying to prevent and undo all the nasty “tricks” he has played on my park. Here are only a few examples of the terrible things he has done: shut down all entrance portals with no warning multiple times so that my park goes into unexpected lockdown, rerouted some dragons, like the needed eridanian, away from my park, and rerouted other dragons, like endless bronze and Olympus dragons, towards my park, stolen almost all the lights from my park so that I was forced to return to daylight instead of the beautiful night sky so that my visitors could see, put a spell on all my island themes so that using them causes my park to go into repeated lockdown, sent poisoned treats, and gems wrapped in layers of harmful spells instead of koala leaves, and the list goes on. After dealing with his evil plots for months, or has it been years, I cannot take it anymore. My wizards recently came to me demanding a break. They are worn out from the 24-7-365 work schedule that we have had to keep in an effort to keep our park afloat. Therefore, with sadness, we are closing down our park until the end of March. There is a slight possibility that the month off might be enough to refresh us for the challenge, but I don’t believe a month will do it. I believe that the evil schemes of a certain mod have finally won out, and the LIKYLIND dragon park, and all associated parks, will be shutting down for good. Although I have decided to leave, I am not leaving quietly. My wizards and I have prepared one last big bang for GD’s park, and the results of this spell should keep him busy and unhappy for a long time to come. Perhaps it will even manage to drive him away.
Now, for some good news to cheer you up, for quite a long time there was a discussion about crowning dragons, and maximizing earnings, and how at the rate BFS released new dragons, we could never crown them all. I never tried to maximize earnings, much preferring to display one of every dragon and multiples of the ones I like. However, this past week, I finished crowning the remaining 56 hybrid dragons in my park. All 158 possible dragons are crowned, and when my remaining roses are converted into treats, I should have enough to elder my pure elements, although I won’t be able to do it because of the nasty spell my wizards and I detected on the shrines. I leave with 4 billion in the bank, 1500 gems, and over 100 million treats. My only regret is that I was unable to obtain an eridanian before closing down my park due to the malevolence of a certain mod. I have enjoyed my time with all of you. I will miss you, and I want to warn you to be careful. Now that a certain dragon-eating mod has succeeded in driving me away, I fear that he will set his sights on others. Be vigilant. Be diligent. Beware!

What a wonderful place to be On a forum with all of thee My eyes may blur since my roses don't reset But it matters little with all of you I've met
For how you make me smile and laugh When these events confound and I can't do the math Thank goodness for our mods and members alike Who humbly offer their aid over the mike
May Gardenia grace your vales with roses As those elusives stop keeping you on your toe-ses Maybe Valentines Day will bring koalas Or we may all need to spend some 'dollas
(My apologies for the pitiful last rhyme).
I have been unable to successfully breed an aura dragon during the event, until today - a lovely Surprise - using heat and ice in my EBI. Others seem to be having some luck with this one; I hope it reaches all forum members!
How nice! POTM for sure!!

At the moment I am filled with Ire and quite Melancholy, but I would experience great Serenity and be filled with Delight, if I could only breed some Aura Dragons. Actually I would like a Moonstruck, Rose and Lunar Eclipse in my small park
In the past, that should have been enough, but if kydolind and wapatango promise not to report me to the rest of the family, WHINE, WHINE, WHINE, WHINE. This is only a test.
Edit: I forgot to add, this is an "official" whine. It is a test of the DragonVale Community Forum Whine System. It is only a test.
POTM!

Thank you to all who voted for my post for POTM. However, since I have stopped playing the game, I would request that any gems I would have won be sent to KYDOLIND, he is the only family member still playing.
Congratulations to ilovdragons and rulilind for winning. Gems to be sent shortly.
