New Question: How do I send a flower? You can either copy/paste the flower and message or screenshot it to add to your Direct Messages/Private Messages (DM/PM).

Hello, my little ponies! You may have noticed the banner change as we run this event a little tongue-in-cheek. That is because @StaryStory (the amazing artist of the banner and Silky illustration below) and I have a similarly strange sense of humor. "Be nice to each other -- OR ELSE!! " @StaryStory and I had been bonding for a while and completely amazed by our similarities! So -- by the power of new friendships blossoming -- and magic!! Let us begin! >:3 First of all! A big HAPPY BIRTHDAY to @Sparklefan1234!! The lovely of Sparklecubes! And A BIG BIG welcome back home to @ExplosionMare who went on quite the hiatus! These two have put me through quite the adventure to tell for having shown me the meaning of friendships from far and wide while blooming new ones. So! In honor of new potential friendship blooming -- here is a new Admin event! gift for @ExplosionMare! Today we are going to be learning a little bit about healthy friendships, boundaries and how to bloom them. As they say, April showers brings May flowers. It is now June. So there are plenty of flowers. >:3 All through-out the rest of June and July... we shall be showing something similar to that of a "user appreciation theme." You will get a badge for this event but you may also earn a new friendship as a plus! But! There are just some rules to obtain here. Cultivating healthy friendships or blooming the seeds of potential new ones means respecting their boundaries! You will be offered some flowers below. Each flower will represent something. Try to scatter as many throughout the forums (in the form of a private message to people) with a genuine and authentic compliment you may have towards another user. But do not pressure them to respond, reciprocate or give you one back. This is not how this event works. It is very simple: Send them a private message with a flower. Its meaning and why you have offered it to them as a gift! It does not matter if it is an older user that says "inactive," or "active." Some users are lurkers and it simply says "inactive" as a courtesy to them. So, go crazy with the friendship is magic spreading! But remember, there is absolutely no obligation for them to reciprocate or owe you a friendship back. The main theme is to scatter flowers and kindness. Potentially gaining a friend is just a side-perk! IF you have obtained 3 flowers in total, please message @Twilight Sparkle with the flowers, their meaning and the persons who sent them! This Event shall go from the rest of June until the 12th of July! Good luck, lovelies! *offers a bouquet to get started* (copy and paste any image below to someone's DMs and just leave it without worrying if they have read it or not) Below at the flowers for you to custom your own message if you would like to Remember never to take it personal if a person does not reciprocate any sentiments. What matters is that you are able to express what you feel sincerely and now is your chance to spread the flowers around the site! Have fun, lovelies!!! Also, huge shout out to @ZiggWheelsManning for being such a caring friend and worrying about everyone he does befriend.

I am REALLY really bad at this. I tried for a long time, too. But it was still fun. Thank you @Rikifive
