Because the number one reason games like that work, is greed. Greed for the purplz, greed for the raid, greed for the next level and ubr gear.

You're competing with greed--and you can't win against that. You'll never be good enough, people want more, more, more, MOAR without having to give .

In the end? You could sign out of that main right now, never play him or her for six months --come back and probably find that half the people who knew you don't remember you and the other half will ask you for your shit.

This is the way of some guilds and games.

I said SOME, because I've known a few guilds that grew to know each other in real life, and things went the other way--the epic win way, not the fail way.

I've been guild leader for several different games--I can tell you that the one person that's not a moron who appreciates you for what you do, often makes all this shit worth dragging ass through.
