Hey ArenaNet.
Every couple of years I come on here and make a post for the same reason and saying the same thing so I’ll keep it short. : )
When I was living in England about 11 years ago, I came across GW. About 10 years ago, I met a female player in Kamadan. About 6 months after that I met her in person and shortly after that, I met her daughter and shortly after again, we became a couple. From then until now GW and GW2 have been a massive part of our lives.
About 8 years ago we had our second daughter (technically, my first daughter but their both mine/ours, if you know what I mean). Then about 6 years ago, our third daughter. 4 years ago, our forth daughter. 2 years ago, our fifth daughter. Then about 5 hours ago, we had our sixth child. Our first boy.
None of this would have been possible were it not for ArenaNet. I’m filled with overwhelming gratitude to you guys. I cannot express how thankful we are, these few words fail hopelessly to convey our appreciation but we’ll say them anyway… Thank you.

Congratulations on your boy! That must be very special. =)
Congratulations! I’m sure developers love hearing stories like this and I definitely love hearing them too!
Congratulations.
Is the boy named Colin? Or Mike? Or… Rytlock

Congtrats on your happy marriage and your kids.
You can run a full dungeon and soon raid party with that many kiddos of yours and along with your wife!
I love posts like this. Congratulations on the new baby!
Thanks a million Guys.
Thanks for your post, I love reading stuff like this
Congrats with the baby!
guess you’ll have to buy another copy of the game though
I can still remember me and my (now) wife were busy with the Cathederal of Eternal Radiance meta in Malchor’s Leap when her water broke.
We had to wait for help to arrive so we thought we might as well finish the meta event before delivering our son to this world :p
Number two is due in a couple of weeks

Pretty soon we will have a spin off of that one show.
19 Kids and Counting: Tyria Edition.
That’s how you perfect your squad!
Congratulations! It will be awesome when they are all old enough to play with you! Grandpa and I play with our son and grandson….3 generations of gamers.

Thanks for all your kind words guys. This is why I love the GW and GW2 communities, you’re the best ever!
Congratulations.

Logan, obviously.
Great story you two have!
My brother met his wife in Everquest. Four kids later they don’t game as much, but EQ will always hold a special place in their hearts as with you, your wife and GW.
6 sons plus parents….. how u guys will make a party for the game??

This is a good point. Gotta go for two more kids, OP! Then you can have two parties AND a full raid squad.

5 daughters and one son.
If we play GW, we’ll be fine, party size there is 8. When we play GW2, we’ll just have to play in a squad. Good thing I have a commander tag.
We were just looking through the baby name books with the midwife and she pointed out Trahern (as in Trahearne) and said “oww, I really like this one! It’s a nice strong Irish name.”
It means Strength of Iron" but it’s actually more Gaelic than Irish. I tell you, we’d be half tempted if we hadn’t used a very GW name for one of the girls already.
I wonder if that’s how the devs name some of the NPCs when making the game, just randomly picking names from baby naming books. lol
Congrats on your newest addition!!

So, just short of two weeks old and we have finally settled on a name. C Trahearn Gabriel.
Although we picked it for the sound and meaning and its not spelt the same, it’s another nice connection to the game.
That is so amazing. My wife and I have been playing Guild Wars 1 and 2 with many of the same folks we met very early on in Guild Wars 1 on release. Most of them more than 10 years now.

Once again, congratulations.
I hope the grind (e.g. watch how the number of diapers changed quickly adds up faster than your Aurillium used to) leads to good loot (e.g. first solid food (omnomberry?), first word (“meta” probably?), first steps, and, of course, first jumping puzzle).

Ha ha. Thanks, again. Yea, I’m well looking forward to his first jumping puzzle, his sisters were naturals!
