I'm not jealous at all, nothing to be jealous about. It is just like someone posting pictures of a ring they found that is claimed to be gold but no picture of the KT rating on the ring, no gold test means it is just a ring.

Sadly,your mistaken!Finding a platinum/Gold deposit in the ground is nothing like finding a ring and if you think someone is going to show the whole world their assay reports on the internet then a' Treasure Hunter' is all you'll ever be!I obviously made a mistake thinking I could come freely to your website and share my finds without getting Shanghaied by the site Administrator!

You are not being "shanghaied", you said the rock is a dragon fossil with gold, platinum, and silver. You posted it in our "Today's Finds" but then say you found it 10 years ago so it was moved to our rock forum. Nothing in the pictures shown says gold, platinum, and silver is all I am saying.
There is also no proof in science or archeology that dragons ever existed beyond ancient legends and mythology, not a single dragon fossil was ever found.

Utter nonsense!
I assume you mean the 32-feet-long fossil found in England in the UK recently. Not 'New England' in the USA. Also not found 'off the beach', but in the exposed mud of Rutland Water reservoir, in an area of England that's a long way from the sea.
Although the press picked up the term "sea dragon" for sensational reasons and the museum authorities played along with that (note the label in the background below), what was discovered was an ichthyosaur. A limbless marine reptile with flippers (not wings) which is well established in the fossil record. This one was remarkable only by its size. degree of preservation and completeness.

I knew someone here has some sense.Yes,I meant England and the public term is Sea Dragon Fossil but you are correct in it scientific name.And I have a vertabrae fossil that exactly matches one on their discovery,size and all but it doesn't seem like anyone much cares so I won't post any pics!

You need to go back and reread the article, that was an ichthyosaur which is a dinosaur that lived in the sea, it is a salt water reptile that lived in the water, not a flying dragon or even a dragon.

Well Shanghaied here's the rub , Day in and day out week after week new folks drop in to this site with'' earth shattering'' finds. We the members love treasure but are quick to question anything that's doesn't add up. A while back a guy found a chunk of gold the size of a car in plain view . he wanted members to bring a crew of men on a ship to get this gold . as you can imagine he was put through the ringer on that find. If you'd came here with a coin , ring or war relic the memberships response would have been more to your liking . The guys here see a rock , if you want them to think otherwise you'll need to do more to prove it to them , otherwise it's just the " earth shattering find of the week.
