Hello all, you'll find that many posts have been removed. Apparently a little troll came in and decided to ruin this thread. I'm sorry about that. Next time though, instead of responding to him and turning this thread into a flame war, use the report button. That way I won't have to delete fifteen posts, but only one.

re-/signing. Completely forgot about report button. My bad.

EDIT: Ugh, post deletes are annoying, lost track of my original post. It's there. To add to the topic:

I like the idea of the parrot minipet. Perhaps different items for Cantha and Tyria? Canthan quest: Search for Treasure on the Jade Sea. Tyrian Quest: Treasure Hunt in the Maguuma (sp?). You can only do one quest per character and items are bound to your account.

Edit: Since we are at it. To show some love for the Ninja vs Pirates theme, apart for having pirates stuff, perhaps offer CONICAL HATS for us Assassin lovers too, it would make the event complete and no more of that 1 day exclusive 3 hourly BS this time also please FFS.

It would be sweet if they made a language, much like Bork Bork, but where everything is pirate speak, and it can only be active that day.

Because pirates are awesome. And Canthans and Tyrians alike need to acknowledge their awesomeness come September 19th.

i've gone off the idea of event hats mainly because just about every hat screws up the characters hair and takes precious storage up

free booze towards drunkard title would be good though

Why have a ninja day? What do most people playing assassins in GW know about the historical points of the ninja? Most only know the little they have seen in anime movie's, so forget the ninja day!

Last year I tried to get my son to talk like a pirate too, for talk like a pirate day. It was hillarious, him running around trying to say..."Arrrr ye scaby sea dog" in a pirate voice. I was laughing so hard!

Fun idea, not sure about this but is their holidays in this game? I know some holidays can't be put in because of different religions. I hate to do this but in WoW, they use their lore to recreate a holiday (having it at the same time) but with no religious relations. Also, they did many holidays from not just the U.S. Both of these ideas would be cool in the game.

if this did go through, i'd like to see for just that day all chests are "buried tresure" which would require no key to open and all 8 members of your party could open.
Off topic, but is Anet going to update old greens to the new 20/20? Like the Dragos I spent 40k on the day before the new one came out, or my Victos Axe

Anet has their own team for events, so implenting an event won't delay fixing bugs, making update npc or any other thing people might not agree with at the moment. Nor will not making any events speed that progress up.

Recently Gaile Gray "said" they are going to upgrade the greens and armor soon. But who knows when that will be. It's already been delayed too long as it is. They should have known people would want to upgrade when there was new armor/sundering, but ANet didn't seem to think ahead here.

So, what are the chances that there will be a Pirate Day.

Could incorporate that as an introduction to Campaign 3, the Canthans and Krytans celebrate Pirate Day when the Pirates from <insert name of new continent> helped them in their fight against <insert name of new opponent>.
