Politics are ok… it’s the drama that gets things messed up. I don’t view them as the same, but often go hand in hand, sadly. And then when they spill over into (excuse the term) RL, things can get really disgusting, I’ve seen it to that end. But that is far beyond the norm, and it really takes leadership talent to deal with the occasional drama queen of the norm, while not giving them what they want; a big poop to stink up the air. However, many that try to start guilds just don’t have that talent, and so you get uneasy situations etc. I’ve found this more so true of normal guilds, as opposed to RP or even PvP guilds, yet they all still have their fair share of stink from time to time.
