don't you think its pretty weird that we're KILLING creatures, for love is in the air... people are farming to buy a LOVE BIRD, but there are millions of creatures slain, just for a love bird... (i love love is in the air tho)

@Gelowy: I made the Warchief a Lovely Charm Bracelet made out of the remains of Alliance players sustainably farmed in Tol Barad. It seemed rather appropriate.

Very enjoyable event, and definitely one of the easier holiday events to complete - I had the Love Fool title a day after this came out. The Lunar Festival achievements were brilliant in my opinion, as it got me to go explore the world and go to places I've never been to (never taken time to appreciate would probably be better worded, since I've got World Explorer on two characters :P). Worst Achievement here was the Lovely Luck is On Your Side - I had to open 15 boxes before I got the black dress >.< so can't afford the mount now.
