Attendee Quotes:

There’s not only a sense of community, but also a sense of family.

~Heath C.

I feel this is the safest gaming community where I don’t have to deal with harassment or toxic behavior.

~Tessa M.

The community is not only generous with the charities, but with each other. They are always willing to help others.

~Michael W.

PDXLAN defines “Community” better than any other real world community I’ve been in. People help each other, support each other, and when they can, they give back.

~Joe S.

When I went to my first event I didn’t have anyone else to game with. I really needed a space to unwind. After I arrived I reached out and it wasn’t even the end of the 1st day I had an entire group to play with.

~Zack R.
