WoW to get an official pride event, based on a community run that's raised money for 12 years

World of Warcraft is getting its first official, proper pride event (via WoWhead)—and the neatest part? It's based on a community-run event that's been raising money for LGBT charities for years.

The Running of the Trolls is an event that's been active on the US Feathermoon server for 12 years, helmed by the larger group WarcraftCares. It sees players rolling up with a troll to, traditionally, Silvermoon. The event raises money for The Trevor Project, which provides crisis services to LGBT youth, alongside research, advocacy, and education.
