My recommendation is to submit one more intro post that does not include any images or links. Just say "Hi, I'm new here, looking forward to talking about dragons" or something to that effect, and be patient. You can talk about how cute your dragons are all you want after you get your account verified.

I believe Cafepress is a print-on-demand service, I don't think Dragon Cave had any held stock of merch.

Sorry, Friday I had quite a lot of work to do at my job, and yesterday I spent most of the day in the hospital, so this thread has not been my priority.

That said, I messaged some of the forum mods on your behalf last night. I was waiting until I had some actual news to reply here.

Just got a reply, there have still been issues with you including eggspam in your intro post attempts. I strongly advise you to read all of the intro section guidelines and, to be on the safe side, do not include any links at all in your intro post. You can take a look at some of the other intro posts for ideas, but your intro can be as little as a sentence or two. Just don't include any links, or your dragons' images in the post.

For your other question, there was a merch store for a little while, but it closed back in 2016.

You can get eggs through breeding, but they're not available in the biomes or the market. The only way to get a CB Prize Dragon is by winning the monthly raffle.

Since there are multiple variants of Prize Dragon, you need to unlock each variant before the name shows up on dragon view pages. So if you need to view 15 or something to unlock it, you'd need to view 15 bronze, 15 silver, and 15 gold for all three variants to show the name when viewed.

The official Discord and forums are well established as the major social hubs for DC, so most folks come to the wiki for information rather than conversation.

That's a Prize Dragon, they are in the encyclopedia. It may be that you haven't seen or owned enough to unlock it in the encyclopedia yet.

And I'm not entirely sure, but would guess your 2DS shows up as "3DS" to browser user agents because the 2DS and 3DS both run Nintendo 3DS system software for their operating systems.

The Thuwed article explains. Thuweds are dragons owned by TJ09. Often they're the originals of the breed shown in the forum release posts. People like to collect their offspring.

The word "thuwed" is just "dragon" in the Saurian cipher.

There's a list of the Thuwed breeding pairs on the site: https://dragcave.net/thuwed

Sorry, I really don't know what else to tell ya other than to consider joining the Discord to ask in the site help channel. Your other option would be to reach out to the site admin via email, which can be found under contact information in the help section.

Ah, it turns out DMs are also restricted until your account is verified. My bad.

I talked with some folks on Discord, it sounds like it can take a few days for an introduction post to get approved, and you should make sure you're following the Introduction Guidelines when you submit your post.

In particular, make sure that you follow the guidelines about not posting links to your eggs or scroll in your intro post. What you've posted here probably wouldn't be approved for that reason, since you're advertising your group of growing eggs and hatchlings. Once your account's verified, you can include your scroll and eggs in your signature.

Sorry, all I can recommend is reaching out to a moderator via DMs. They can explain if there was an issue in your post that kept it from being approved, or update you on the status. They're cool folks who volunteer their time to take on mod responsibilities, and are always happy to help. :)

Welcome! You'll have to talk to the mods on the forums about any forum issue, the wiki isn't part of the site.

You may also want to make sure you check the guidelines for different forum sections, the Introduction Guidelines explain that new posts need to be approved by a mod to become visible. I don't know how long it usually takes for posts to get approved, but you may want to DM a forum moderator instead of submitting multiple intro posts.

You could also try asking on the official Discord.

Oooh, this year's game is fun. Reminds me of the Holiday Cooking game a bit. :D

If the pattern holds, this year's should be male. Valentines have historically alternated every year, while Holidays switch every two years. 😄

Happy (early) Valentine's!

Hey y'all!

You may have noticed from the abandoned page that the Valentine breeding season is upon us. If you could use a refresher on Valentine eggs, or want to see more about past Valentine events, check out the Valentine's Day article here on the wiki!

Did you know? Though Valentine's Day was first celebrated on Dragon Cave in 2009 with the introduction of Valentine Dragons, the first Valentine's Day game was the "Send a Valentine" event in 2012.

Send a ValentineDragon Cave Wiki

We've seen past Holiday games return through the Advent Calendar, what past Valentine games would you like to see brought back to play again someday?

I don't know if anyone's collected data around sickness. Much like making dragons grow, there doesn't seem to be an exact number of views or amount of time that will cause a dragon to become sick or die.

Eggs are more prone to sickness the younger they are. Typically I'll just hide my eggs for the first 24 hours, and I rarely run into issues with sickness when they're older than that.

Nope, limited release dragons don't appear in the market, even within their season. There will be a special event biome that appears during the week before the holiday, where you can catch past breeds, but they've never appeared in the market.

RinasaurusRex·8/18/2023

Nope! Once a dragon is fully grown (or if a hatchling is frozen), it no longer needs clicks and views.

That egg description should belong to the Spirit Ward Dragon.

Spirit Ward DragonDragon Cave Wiki

Spirit Wards go through several forms during the night, and if you haven't unlocked all the forms in the Encyclopedia I think that sometimes that causes the breed to not show on the dragon's page.
