Yeah drama is no good at all. Rule number one of my guild is NO DRAMA, drama = ban!

Quite frankly, I don't have the room in my life to listen to a bunch of drama. If I did, I would try and find a way to get a time machine, and go back to my school years so I could get a heavy dose of it. No thank you!!

I hate drama. I have also seen it destroy a few guilds. I deal with drama every day in real life and I look to the game as a way of escaping it. The worse thing is that drama in the game usually involves really pointless stuff. I am all for being very social but there are some things that just dont belong. If there is a drama issue there is nothing wrong with just moving along and avoiding it... hence why it destroys good guilds.

Drama is what killed the original PIC. No matter how we look at it, it comes down to that.

Drama doesn't keep a guild from sliding in to oblivion. It catalyzes the process. To think that drama would actually help a guild is selfishness on those who bring it in to their guild. Fueds, arguments, and all of that take away from the point of the game, to have FUN. By bringing drama in to a guild, you're destroying the precious time of somebody who may actually want to have fun and play the game, let alone get in to virtual fights with others.

Seriously, whats the point of drama/griefing the first place? No matter who "beats" the other person in the "fight," nobody wins. The "loser" walks away with a broken spirit, and the "winner" probably walks away in the worse case; a broken reputation, and a false sense of gratitude that is some of the more pathetic sightings in life.

I used to be a griefer once. Did I think it was fun at the time? Hell yeah I did. Why? Because I thought I was getting back at others.

But now I've learned better. No matter how hard you try to dismantle somebody else, you're really only weakening yourself.

*GASP* *points finger* Griefer! Griefer on Aisle Del!


There are a few ways to define drama.

Drama (1)- Acting, suspense

Drama (2)- Friction between one party and another

now it is a small amount of drama which i was referring to. look at this thread no-one has said anything to me for quite a while. i didn't mean huge guild splitting drama the drama i was referring to is dialogue and small arguments if it gets to be to much the guild will die but a guild without dialogue or any amount of spirit will die to. pick your poison withholding on something you need to live or drink it. there is a third option the goldy locks zone(goldy locks zone refires to something being just right) of drama. look at the conclave if things weren't spiced up by anything at all the conclave would be gone drama made del gm drama made every other candidate quit drama and confusion ( to be discussed later)

Countainer.. Drama and heated debate are 2 different things. Having your guild talk to each other is a good thing, having them argue amongst themselves over petty reasons, or even huge reasons, will destroy guilds.

In Conclusion.. to me, any drama is TOO much Drama.

Um, sure, drama brings attention to your guild. What attention? Err, negative names, negative views, trolls, and just plain rude people on the game. All negative attention. You could be a drama starter ( a trouble maker ) or a person who is kind to others and has common sense, getting positive attention for being kind to others. When you have drama in a guild, you automatically start going down hill. Drama does NOT and will EVER keep a guild from sliding into oblivion. Why in the world would you want arguments going on in a guild? It's like having a group of friends, and then they start arguing among themselves, and eventually hating each other. You wouldn't feel the best about that - that's how a guild works. If your guild was always arguing with another guild, or arguing/trolling with each other, then eventually your guild will be "known," but not in a positive way. Trust me, you'll get tired of having drama in your guild. I used to be a griefer as well, and of course at the time it seemed fun. But does it now? No, I regret everything I did/said completely. I tried to keep other guilds and friends from having drama, but now, I'm just not friends at all with people who do drama. It's not worth it at all. " Huge guild splitting drama?" That could be for many reasons, not just drama itself- although the case often is drama. Even small drama is harmful. What do you think is better, being known for your kindness and common sense, or a griefer who likes to start trouble?
