Interesting comparison of MMO and console games. I liked the quote regarding guilds: "You are now a part of something larger than yourself. It can be incredbily satisfying to be in a guild or clan and help those you care about, but it can be equally as hard to say no to those very same friends." - Guild Guru

A GM's advice to others (leader and non-leader alike) to conflict resolution. I've followed his steps many times myself, as well as recommended others to do the same. Would make a great post on guild forums (be sure to give him credit if you do) In summary: Stage 1 - Don’t do anything! Stop and think about the issue. Stage 2 - Suck it up. Be the bigger person and let the conflict slide. Stage 3 - Deal with it yourself. Talk to the other person, adult to adult. Stage 4 - Involve the authorities. Chose the right level to take it to. Stage 5 - Let it go. Move on, let bygones be bygones. - Guild Guru
