Tomorrow (February 14th) it is Valentine's Day.

Valentine's Day is the traditional day on which lovers express their love for each other by sending Valentine's cards, presenting flowers, or offering confectionery.

Now the question:

WILL THERE BE LOVE IN GW, TOO?

I doubt that, at least I did not notice last year. It is probably just too close to the Canthan New Year. But one can always hope.

Us single folks will need an alcohol-based celebration. Lots and lots of alcohol.

Due to the abundance of wammos, getting "petted" couldn't be simpler.

1. Go to any major town.
2. Take off your armor.
3. Watch for the first wammo to come up behind you and type "/dance".

Make sure that you thank him and wish him a Happy Valentines Day.

Shing Jea Monastery AD1 is going to go berserk on Valentine's Day.

Me and the guys from [HoeZ] will likely head down and chill there

I'll definitely be spending my Valentine's with Livia. I feel we've really advanced past the whole "just party members" thing, and I think it's going really well.

dont believe that the gw world will be any different for me from the real one---in which case the only things I will get are the ones I get for myself.

(and it has been this way for the many years I have been together with my husband---why should this year be any different?????)

Too expensive I'd say. Does she even like red roses? Valentine's Day makes the flower providers go nuts for profit for roses (also, they are somewhat out of season).

There should be candy drops (as mentioned in Sardelac); help your snuggly get a title by giving them oodles of candy

I'll be spending Valentines with my snuggly, so there won't be much of me on Guild Wars that day, though I'm sure others will be having parties and such.

Singles Night in Kaineng Centre?
Double Dates in Droknar's, off for HM chest runs in the Shiverpeaks? Very romantic this time of year, if you don't mind the chill.

First valentine's day I'll be single in a few years, so yeah. I'd say we should start an alcohol fund for any single people who want to get hammered, but I think that's too many people to fit on the servers.

Guid wars wont do anything for V-day because statisticly its one of the most depressing times of the year (for single people) so to remind them on gw would only make it worse...

I think A-net want to keep players not make them suicidle =\

You know what would be a nice one day drop from creatures... those chocolate liquor things... little chocolate bottles with booze in them. You could get one point each for drunkard and sweet tooth at the same time.

Or if they really feel the love, add a sugar rush to it as well. Although with the alcohol it should be an uncontrolled speed rush... you run automatically for a short distance and fall down.

Nope. I'm single this year and I didn't even realize V-Day was coming until I saw this thread. It doesn't affect me at all.
Well, that's not true. My wallet won't be empty this time.
Seriously, if the only time I'm really giving loving to my S.O. is for a commercial holiday then I've got bigger problems than Valentines.

Also, /signed for free Sweet Tooth points.

Sadly, I prolly will have time to sign into Guild Wars. My bf just went all the way across the freakin country and Canada is biiiig :S So some love in GW would be nice lol.

I know a heart decorated town would be too much but I can dream.........

But I agree that lots and lots of alcohol is in order. If not, then I will get my own and play lol. Who needs A-Net?

candy hearts and roses that go for the party animal thing. that would be fun. The effect is kinda a hippy thing both do the same thing it acts like a drunkard effect.
You start saying random things that are kinda like the booze but it calls out to random characters.

stuff like
I love you (insert random player name here that is in the town)
GROUP HUG!!!!!!
awww give me a hug.
etc
you also get a red look on the screen like your char is love struck so the screen will go all wavey and stuff and some character will have a big red heart above them?
I dunno that would just be funny
