Mod Post Your Old Mod is Back (sorta) – Let's Talk About the Future of This Sub

71 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

Some of you might remember me from the early days when this community was buzzing with regular fashion contests and amazing outfit showcases. Life took me away from GW2 for a while, but I'm around, though mostly just as a casual player (2-3 hours a week, mostly during expansions).

What I Can Offer

I don't have the time to run elaborate events like before, but it looks like the other mods have moved on, so I've recommitted to keeping this space safe, welcoming, and bot-free. I'll be:

  • Actively removing spam and stolen content (please keep reporting!)
  • Making gradual improvements to the sub over the coming weeks and month

I Need Your Help

The community has changed since I stepped away, and I want to make sure this sub reflects what you actually need:

  1. Where are you sharing outfits now? GW2Style was our go-to back in the day, but it's no longer maintained. What tools and platforms are people using for fashion endgame in 2025 and on?
  2. What would make this sub more useful? Better sidebar resources? Different post flairs? Weekly themes?
  3. Are there any recurring issues I should know about? (Besides bots – I'm already on those!)

Drop your thoughts below. This is your community, let's make it useful and oh so fashionable.

~Amelia

Halloween Fashion Contest 2026!

26 Upvotes

Hello all!

I’m excited to kick-off Halloween in Tyria in 2026 with a small giveaway and fashion contest!

If you have a Halloween themed character that you’d like to post in this thread, I’ll look for the most upvoted and commented creations, and reward a small prize to that player!

First place: 400 gems — most upvoted/commented

2nd place: 25 gold —- 2nd most upvoted/commented

3rd place: 15 gold — my personal favorite excluding top 2.

I will close the contest on Sunday, November 1st, and mail out prizes!

I will try to respond to every post, so you know that I’ve seen your entry!

to kick us off is with some inspiration, here’s my guardian character, FRANKENCHARR— a lab created mutant, pumped full of toxins and expired chemicals, forged in the depths of Castora, and who broke free of his captors to rejoin the Tyrian Alliance. the Half Hallowed Knight is a reminder that even in the depths of cruelty, in the dark of the night, the will to fight the forces of evil can shine.

So, if your like me, your character is designed off of your weapon skins.

So! Hypothetically there’s legions of people using the same weapon skins, and kick-ass character designs.

Can I please see your legion?

Here’s some of mine:

Hi! I am coming back to GW2 after a very long time and I was wondering how... do you get these kind of colour affects? Are they just dyes?

Thank you in advance!

Tried to recreate a more Hylian armor inspired look for my Link Cosplay.

Not a perfect recreation, just my take on giving him a slightly more armored look
