shes already getting a friking planetwide event.
a twitching madwoman npc, wandering and gibbering about "customer relations" yeah that would be cool.
no gravestones, lets save that for when someone really dies.
Then we could have a funeral conga march and stuff.

Seriously though, from reading some of the posts here as well as others over the years, she deserves far more than a simple ingame monument. >_>

Ummm yea..great idea for a PERSONAL statue. for YOUR guild hall. or something along those lines.
it should cost around 300k, plus mats for building.
I mean, come on....this is getting ridiculous. after all people, it was her decision to roll, most people never even heard of her. (and she is bettering herself I hope). a world-wide party(event) should be more than enough.

No. I'd rather Izzy, he has much greater infamy. And the April 1 'game update' notes were hilarious.

Im just gonna say it since I have not seen it yet.
Most of the guild wars community has no frickin idea who Gaile is (everyone staits she is a CR manager or a PR rep) which is a flat out lie.
She is a Forum relations mananger.
I know alot of you had no Idea who Gaile was untill you started reading up on her forums and posts.
not alot of GW players use Guru,wiki, or any other website and most if not all of the other GW websites have the same forum users.
Been playing for 2+ years and I have never 1 time ran into Gaile in game.
I have ran into more of the guru mods and guru users.
So no statue for her.

I think a nice little touch of personality to the game is a nice idea, but not in the form of a statue or monument, but things like:
- a sign somewhere near a simple little house on Shing Jea Island, saying something like: "Dear visitor, I'm currently not at home, because I am travelling the world in search of noteworthy things to scribble down in my journals. Please feel free to leave any messages under my door. The Scribe."
- a sign near a pond on Istan somewhere, saying: "Tadpole Pond. Home of many adventurous frogs. Please do not feed the frogs (... Something else seems to be scribbled here: ) anything but sweets and alcohol!"
- a banner in Lion's Arch at one of the huts at the beach or wherever, saying: "In loving memory of Gaile Gray, who has left in search of new challenges beyond this world."
You know, something that fits into the roleplaying aspect of GW, and gives a little personal recognition to all who work or have worked for GW. Nothing big or fancy, just some little funny extra's, easter eggs if you will.

Statue is a bit overkill maybe.
But all those (swearing) emo's who think they suddenly have to hate Gaile for some unexplained reason, need to shut up..
People make mistakes, so what?
You cut your wrists, I'm not complaining about that either...

/signed wholeheartedly, if only for all the "omg whens hairdresser coming out" spam Gaile got. The endless crap she had to wade through and still have the sense to stay with it for so long is admirable, and the game is much better off having had her as a PR manager.

How about Gaile Gray gets her own special monument in her own hall of monuments?
Really she did a fine job, but a statue in game because shes changing positions......its not like shes actually leaving us.

All my guildmates see me pretty often. I want 2 statues.

While Gaile may have done a considerable ammount in helping with this game, I am quite certain that she was paid well for this job that she had. I also look at the time period and see that it is only for 3 years (really a little under). If she had done this job for 10-20 years I might consider it (yes I realize that 10-20 years in a gaming industry is forever). She could have simply migrated to GW2 on its release as well. I understand that she is not leaving Anet, simply moving to a different position, as I have done in my job as well (3 positions of increasing responsibility in 3 years). I think that this would be unfair to whoever is replacing her as the CRM.

Sorry, but I personally can't find a reason to care one way or another about this. It's so insignificantly dumb. I mean, seriously, whenever anyone quits, is there going to be a statue? Seriously, she sat behind a computer wielding a nerf bat that seemed to be swung in my direction more often than not.

/notsigned. If dedication to a game meant an ingame statue as a reward, then (1)she should be looking for another company that can reward her properly for her work, and (2)our game files would become ridiculous for every anet employee that really, really cares about the game, no really.

... if we can get male characters with their butt-cheeks showing under those hose they wear. Where is the eye-candy for the ladies, hmmmmm?
GuildWars is a fantasy game world. Fantasy by definition is "the imagining of improbable or impossible things" and "a genre of imaginative fiction involving magic and adventure"
- askoxford.com
I mean, come on...we ALL know that half-clad females being pounded on by huge feline warriors is completely unrealistic and fits no rw lore I've ever heard of. RW women are smart enough not to risk any appendage being chopped off - in a real fight - just to show it/them off.
So people want a monument - 'tis okay by me. Gaile was here from the beginning and I figure that the woman must really like helping people to have lasted as long as she did.
