I think you meant "crushes morale"...unless you've crushed the moral of the story or something like that, but that's probably not what you meant.

Craziest guild drama I've seen is a guild on Daggerspine that kicked one of their raiding members because she wanted to level up her druid instead of having to use her hunter all the time. Short version is that they gkicked her and all her alts because they didn't want her using "guild time" and "guild resources" to level characters. ...even though the guild leaders were doing this themselves and she had only wanted two, maybe three, max level characters...not 10 or something.

...at least that's how I understand the story.

WTF? The guild leaders don't want more variety in available raiders and dictate what class you need to play? That's balls.

I'm still in the guild, but will likely gquit once I hit 80.

The first guild I was ever in...

We had recently gotten a guy from a big guild to help us out with raiding and whip us into shape. He was very militaristic and some people didn't like it. One girl left and he tried to apologize to her. Her husband kicked said militaristic guy from the guild in anger. His friends started leaving and there was a lot of confusion. Everyone was up in arms and bombarded the guild leader when he signed on. Poor guy had just found out his mom had cancer and was not up to deal with it. He left over the next couple of days and rerolled horde on another server.

I was away on vacation through most of it so I came back to fun stories.

My guild had a terrible 10 man run, a mix of poor heals and uncoorperative off tanks would be the politest way of describing the issues.
I wasn't there for the run, I logged on a few hours after when in vent the GM was talking smack about the pally healer and how the off tanks refused to pick up adds, unbeknownst to her the player in question (the pally) logged in and heard much of the ranting and it kicked off.

That and a returning player was chewed out 15 minutes after rejoining and being told that all is forgiven about how he left the first time... he left again shortly after. The guy had apparently joined, ran a number of raids which geared him up and left. The GM was taking credit for the level of kit he had and wouldn't drop it even after she said all was forgiven!

Other than those I don't have any stories.

I can relate. I'd joined a more recently formed guild, so we weren't doing major content yet. However, after 3 weeks of going through 10-man Naxx with no boss wipes, things were shaping up nicely.

Unfortunately, our guild's MT decided to attempt a 3-drake OS run. I wasn't present for it, but from what I learned he basically kicked half the guild when it didn't succeed, quitting himself. Everyone else who was online at the time apparently quit in disgust.

And thus I wound up logging on and finding myself the only remaining guild member. XD;;;

We loved our guild, and our GM who was the glue. She and the main tank we're a great yin and yang team, he with the raid lead experience and knowledge of fights, and she with the willingness and ability to talk and listen to people with opinions and concerns.

She hadn't been playing long, and after about a year, decided she wanted to go to a "high-end" raiding guild. (We may go at a slower pace, but I'm happy for no DKP and the ability to take a night or weekend off) She left the server, main tank in charge, who kept the guild together for months without her. Unfortunately we lost too many members and decided to merge with another guild.

That was a horrible mistake.

To try and wrap it up, we, the old guild members were left out of "their" guild runs only brought in if needed, everyone was pissed and thinking about quitting, and then our old GM came back! She didn't like the faster pace, or the new people who didn't have fun raiding, so decided to reform the original guild and was stunned to find the flood of people who returned to her. Now we're restarting and did our first 25m Naxx run last weekend. Happy endings!

I've probibly been in over 10 guilds, all broken up due to drama >.> I'm a vet of guild drama.

I can't say I've actually had much superbad drama, considering I'm the leader of a small social guild. Being purely social, with a coupel raids here and there, you'd think it'd be ripe with drama, but it isn't. We all love each other, we're family. I like them, they like me.

For the most part. We do get petty arguements once in a blue moon. One of the few went like this:

Officers teased lower ranked member about a guy hitting on her and calling his thing "a pickle". As unappropriate as it was, it was funny, so they laughed and made pickle jokes.

She asked them to stop, and when they continued to do it, she left the guild, and put EVERYONE on ignore, including me, and I wasn't the one teasing her. Using another one of the officers as a mouthpiece, she said she'll come back with apologies. Well, since we're on ignore, we couldn't exactly apologize. She simply said, well find a way.

It was stupid and immature, I've never seen anyone have a heart attack over pickle jokes. She's since rejoined the guild, but people's opinions of her dropped drastically.

On the other hand, the officers should have stopped after she asked them too. /shrug

well according to my guild i have a big nose and dont know how to keep it out of peoples busness i honnostly still dont know what i was doing wrong what is so wrong about speaking your opiniion? they say its my tone of voice but i dont know anyhow after loging on to vent i tryed to talk to some of my guild members i assumed something was wrong with my mic since thier was no responce but i was informed that i was muted for reason i didnt understand so i got into a big argument with the guild after the storm blew over ( as in no one responing to my comments anymore) later that night the GM promised to ummute if i was a "good boy" i just went along with it the next day the same thing happen but this time everyone on then muted me we got into another argument i ended up loging of i was afraid of waht i might say to perminatly ruin my relationship with the guild i was really pissed at am i been forced to grind the emblems from heriocs to get my gear because their wasnt enough room for thier raids and here they are cursing ne if treating me like thier own persinal bitch a few hours i cooled of and back on after i was on for some time i heard the guild master mimmick his phrase from the day before and all the other jumped in making a few joke but i didnt say a word on vent for the rest of the night thats how it is with my guild as soon as it beggins it ends

Can't comment....

Wounds.... still..... too fresh.

/sniff

So way back when outlands was still new I joined a guild of close friends. These where the kinda friends who got together and had guild parties and generally took care of each other.

I have always been really slow at leveling. It took me a while to get a level 70 toon. Once that happened I was burning through heroics. I was a healer. I was not the best but I was the best in our little guild. That is what started the trouble.

My little healer had started to underminded the leader of the guild. SHE was the healer and no one else could be it. Not a big deal really that would be fixable but what the guildleader did instead was beyound fixing. Since we all knew each other in real life the guildleader desided to start rumors and not little ones either. The one lie that really got me was when she said I had called social services on my friend because I thought she had poor care for her children. Total lies.

After that I was done I /gquit and with in a day the whole guild was gone. The guildleader was only left with the man she cheated on her husdand with. Sad really.
