    Fans on Reddit Send 300 Cupcakes to ArenaNet

    The GW2 sub-reddit raised enough money to send 300 super-fancy custom cupcakes to ArenaNet.

    It was actually more than enough, and the extra funds are being donated to charity.

    In case you're wondering, the cupcakes were ordered and sent by courier from here: http://www.trophycupcakes.com/

    That's actually really cool of them. O_o
    I hope you haven't forgotten my role in this little story. I'm the leading man. You know what they say about the leading man? He never dies.

    If you give in to your impulses in this world, the price is that it changes your personality in the real world. The player and character are one and the same.

    Yh....that's actually really amazing. Anet will be really touched by the love shown by the community. Well done reddit!

    This was probably one of the most heartfelt things I've seen in awhile. People proving just how much we love ArenaNet. Good for them.

    Similar thing happened with BioWare and Mass Effect 3 ending, except those cupcakes were meant to be an insult.

    Thinking ANet will tell someone they're voluntold?

    Allie will probably snag three of them before anyone even realizes they're there.

    That's cool 'n all..but seriously. Would you eat a cupcake that was sent to you by a stranger over the internet? Think about it.

    Indeed, one of the better GW2 communities. I've only been involved over there for the past few weeks but everyone has been helpful and friendly.

    I think GW2 is going to bring back the community we have been missing since the burning crusade.

    Are you people daft? The Reddit folks themselves didn't bake a few hundred cupcakes and mail them to Anet, they raised the money and paid for them to be made and delivered by some bakery to Anet. A bakery that, as a legitimate business, wouldn't tamper with the cupcakes even if some douchenugget asked them to.

    Isn't like it's going to be some random wacko making them though, they are going to get an actual brick and mortar bakery to make them.

    In that case then yeah, w/e. I don't know the details. Was just looking at the worst case scenario.

    Which would be anthrax bomb cupcakes.
