Simple-- when there are two crazy people the guild self-destructs and one or both then goes out to find their next victims...

so odds of finding a guild with a crazy person increases over time as more and more guilds are infected and either hold onto one of them or disappears entirely and then one or two more get infected -- it's a progressively geometric increase with small step-like regions of non-growth (for the mathematically inclined).

This is possibly the best list of Guild Stereotypes.

Personally I can deal with the people who cause drama since they make it more interesting, but what I can not stand is the The GM's Significant Other on that list. Poor players that you can't get rid of drive me nutty.

You can deal with it, because given what you describe about yourself YOU are the drama queen of every guild's nightmare.

 Every MMORPG I've played there always seems to be that one person.  They're over sensitive, need attention, start issues from nothing yet they're kept around because they usually play a needed class.  In everquest it was this female high elf cleric who would threaten to quit the game if nobody said hi when she logged on.  She constantly whined about her character and would try to flirt with people even though she looked like an orc in real life.

Every single game I've played the guilds seem to have these attention seeking whining over sensitive folks.  They're adults too, not kids as you'd think.  I met kids who were more mature.

Lol that's well out of order but you sure made me laugh there. I think there are loads of guys and girls who play MMOs who lack a social life. Some of them are desperate.

Not every crazy person is female. I have met many weird  people in games, but the craziest person I know plays StarWars Galaxies NGE. He is married with three kids but has affairs online and offline with people he met in this game. He tried to hook up with me so many times it was scaryl. He just totally creeped me out. What was even scarier is his wife knew about these affairs and was fine with it.

What was gross is when he was with his in game "wife" they would act so lovey dovey and it would always make the rest of the guild want to puke.  Then he gets all mad if people didn't approve of this relationship or hurt his in game wife's feelings. Totally messed up situation.
