I'm not really concerned about loot itself, i'm more concerned about being taken for a bitch.

The way i see it, leaders and officers of raiding guilds are like the CEOs and boards of companies. They go in with this official tone "our distribution system promotes fair use and fairness of the fair while simultaneously offering the best return to ratio on the investment of the investing parties, according to the regulation of actives and blah blah blah".

The reality is that they don't give a fuck. They're in it for themselves and their little clique. They sit in the officer channels, rolling around in platinum, caressing their epics and crowns of rile while laughing at their members behind their backs.

Their end goal is loot and to obtain it, they need more than just their little group of friends, so that's where the members come in. How many of you have ever grouped with the leaders and/or officers? Raiding guilds are often portrayed as teams, when in reality, it's run like a company. You are the workers, they are the bosses. That's why they never hang out with you, group with you, or even talk to you. You're that worker they see passing by when you arrive to clock in for your shift while they're going out for a round of golf.

They hold nothing but contempt and disgust for you at worst, indifference at best. If they could reach their loot goals without you, be absolutely certain that they would never even acknowledge your existence, for their world is limited to themselves and their close friends.

The rest of you are tools, a means to an end.
