Guild Wars 2

Thanks for putting this together. I will go if I can.

I was going to ask this on the Reddit thread, but it got locked: Is this event occurring on the NA or EU server?

I will do my best to be there, in my brightest colors.

I hate the fact that the reddit thread got locked. Silencing our voices because of the few that hate, especially given the events that occurred earlier today, is wrong. As far as I can see, there were four comment threads that were deleted, yet I don’t recall other posts in the gw2 subreddit ever being locked because of a few bad apples.

In any case, thank you for organizing this and I’ll try my best to be there with you all.

NA server. Still crossing my fingers and hoping to find a volunteer willing to organize and lead in the EU.

Whatever happened on reddit it was rather quick. I finished the posts, logged into game to do some dailies and by the time I’d checked back in it was locked. Though I am glad I missed the vitriol.
Such a pity really for the loss of positive contributors that can’t post there now.

Count me in, have you reached to other LBGT guilds?

Count me in if I happen to be online at the time!

Hi from Spain.
We’ld be glad to join a pride in EU servers. But i think we’ll need to change the schedule. Most places in Europe is at 2am and lot of people have to wake up early to work next day.

“Pride March Tyria For every player without any differences”<— if you would write topic with this sense I would understand. But it is not place for popularization these things, I am tolerant, but GW2 is not place for our beliefs and views.
See You all in game

Being gay or transgender is not a ‘belief’ or ‘view’ it’s not a choice. It’s an innate part of a person’s identity.

Anyway, I am looking forward to this immensely and will dress up my main in the most colourful attire I own for the march! I’m very excited.

As human being i support this, will be there.

Will be there.

This isn’t about sex, it’s about unity and in the wake of what happened yesterday – it’s appropriate.

I never hear anyone say “Pink Day” is wrong because “breasts don’t belong in game”.

ill join up if i can! as a queer/transgender player, seeing this thread warms me little heart :0 ill be sure to dress up my main for the occasion c:

Greetings from Orlando!
I would love to join in on this march, and I would also like to make a request. It would warm my heart if participants could dye their armor purple and gold – Orlando’s soccer team colors – to show support for my city while we deal with the recent attack on Pulse nightclub, where over 100 members of the LGBT+ community lost their lives or have sustained injuries.
Many thanks <3

Count me in! Any plans on how to get everyone onto the same map? Any leaders or commanders to watch out for?

Hey EU players, what about 5 PM GMT time? ?

Definitely plan on coming! As well as the questions on whom to look for to get on appropriate map(s), is there a meet up/organization time that we should be aiming for before the start time?

Kyrii – Purple and gold it is, at least for me. Thank you for suggesting that, as I know others would be more than happy to do so in light of the attack. <3

If this becomes a thing on EU, I’ll be there for sure!
I’d come on NA but… 1am on a work night.

Hey ^^
I’m the admin of OpenCommunity – a small community that runs events on EU – and this is definitely something we’d be interested in helping out starting EU-side. I was actually just thinking yesterday it might be a good thing to get going.

Something like 6 PM CEST (5 PM British time, 4 PM GMT) sounds like a good time. Are EU people fine with that?

Is this going to be on a specific server (ie: Blackgate) or is it not specific at all

In reddit we talked about meet at 6 pm CET for EU servers

I’ll be there! I’ll change my dyes!

I made a spreadsheet to gather contact information from people interested in organizing in EU servers:

This is a wonderful idea! Are there going to be more details the closer we get? I won’t be able to come along for all of it, but will there be a squad or party so that we can all go through the same map? As an aside, I’m a member of one of the LGBTQ guilds, so I’ll make sure to tell them about this. Hopefully I’ll be able to make it!

I know me an my family want to attend when will this be on DB USA server?

I will be there as an Ally!!! I hope to bring many from RPcd as well, I have reposted this on the front page of our enjin website. RPcd.enjin.com

I brought this up to my guild, which is an LGBT+ safe space guild. Hopefully members will join!

I just told folks from my guild, [FROG]. We support the LGBT community, and we will hopefully have some to join you!! I know my hubby and I will be there!! <3 If you don’t mind, I will tweet the link from Gamers Giving Back and this thread, if that’s okay? <3

Gee Jasmine… you actually asked! giggle

@Trina: Who will be the Squad Leader so that we can make sure we are in the same shard?

I hope me and my guild can participate.
Really good Idea

Even though I’ll be on vacation I’ll try to log in and join

great idea I’ll join

This is Awesome, I’m an officer in the Star Trek Online side of Stonewall and we do have a guild in GW2 as well. This will actually be on the end of Day 2 of our Pride event in STO. We have a full weekend of events there and we have a Star Ship pride parade in STO too on Saturday (I’ll be in the USS Mother Monster!). I’ll advertise this to all of Stonewall network and We’ll pack Tyria!

If you want more info on our Pride events it found on http://fleet.stonewallgaming.net/pride

ROUGH TRADE (RTGC) is very excited about this and will be joining up!
We are in the middle of our week long PRIDE celebration and giveaways and we were planning to parade this Sunday until Orlando happened.
In lieu of the parade we will now be having a memorial at the Field of the Fallen in LA @ 2:00pm PST.
Then we will celebrate with everyone on the 26th!

RTGC is the world oldest and largest LGBT+ MMO Meta Guild with almost 7k members spread across 5 games. For more info http://rtgc.enjin.com

I’ll be there and I’ll let people know about it!

I’ll aim to show up if RL doesnt eat me alive that week, and hopefully it doesnt slip my mind. I can also get my com tag up for it, if needed.

I unfortunately can’t be there as I don’t currently have a functional computer, but I’ll wish you all the best, and thank you for organizing the event. Have a great time everyone!

Good to see people supporting LGBT but remember that a majority is not a minority

Rayons.3076:

Count me in, have you reached to other LBGT guilds?

While I lack contacts with other lgbt guilds I’ve been made aware that some of the members in the same guild I’m in are members of others and am hoping that word has spread that way at least.

From the replies and messages I’ve received it seems like this may turn into something spanning multiple map instances. As such any volunteers that want to get people grouped together would be enormously welcome.

Thankfully, unlike last year’s ‘test run’, there’s some advance notice, a shared route map, and attempts at organizing times going on and hopefully that will mean that we’ll be able to approximate multiple instances of groups somewhat together.

For those willing to volunteer their time and tags, post here and we’ll try to keep a look out.

As for me, I think I’ll be tagging up on my main: Katrina Seryu.

It’s not planned for any specific home server.

I’m in the habit of getting to places a half an hour to fifteen minutes ahead of a scheduled time and was planning to be at the starting point around then to help with coordinating before it all begins. I could arrange earlier if you think that would be necessary.

My condolences. I’ve been grieving out of game since it happened and I’m sorry I missed out (was having my computer checked out till about half an hour ago).

In all I’m both overwhelmed and amazed at the show of support. I wasn’t expecting even a third of the interest I’ve seen and I’m honored and humbled that my small attempts have drawn such incredible and heart-whelming response.

bows

I hope I can do my best for all of you next week.

I hate working weekends, I always miss out on community events like this one. I may not be able to come but the least I can do is spread the word about the march to the rest of my guild(s).

Looking at time differences, it turns out this is on when I have to be at work. But in spirit, my characters will be there in rainbow colours. I’d love to see screenshots
