Now I wish I would of had this when I started my first serious guild at the time I had read some stuff online and I thought I had what it took to run a guild but between being stole from and being forced to grind everyday just to stay the best in my guild plus hours of recruiting just burned me out after a couple months causing me to abandon my guild and hate the MMO for the next couple months after that. I wrote this because I really think potential guild leaders should read this so they don't have this.
