If you haven't made any MMO-centric plans for Valentine's Day, consider the offerings from free-to-play giant Perfect World Entertainment. The company is playing cupid in several of its online titles, and players can acquire "wedding fashions, romantic items, spectacular mounts, mystery boxes, and more."
Jade Dynasty features a wedding event and items for marriage-minded avatars, while Perfect World International GMs will be interacting with players and giving out a rare mount. Rusty Hearts is putting on an art contest, and the prize is Roselle Vegerius (the game's latest premium character).
Forsaken World players will receive a Valentine's Day card and random items, while War of the Immortals fans can collect chocolate and trade it for additional XP. Finally, Ether Saga Odyssey players can enter a screenshot contest to win XP and bonus items, as well as bid for rare pets and send custom broadcast messages.

That's because he'd rather be in Rift on V-day, doing the record marriage thing and being a part of history.
He's like: "Effin girls, I could be accomplishing something."

We need an MMO that celebrates a non-valentines day.
It's hard to find a game to escape to, especially an MMO.

There are a few that celebrate St. Patrick's Day.
Many more celebrate Halloween and of course, Christmas and New Year's.
I think very few go outside those holidays, like Easter or President's Day and stuff like that, but if they do, they tend to be sales in the cash shop more than anything in-game. Which, while I could point and say those are mainly American Holidays (Thanksgiving)...well, so it Valentine's Day and yet, Asia has embraced such a day! (Along with Christmas, but mostly because such days are "pretty" and good for "gift-giving".)
