I know a guy that plays a shaman on this server, he's been here for 3-4 years at least. He never joined a guild, and basically spent tons of time farming to get plats to buy his last piece of his epic from a MQ, he bought torpor, he basically spent YEARS grinding to get what a guild probably could have gotten him faster. He did it though, because he dislikes the politics in guilds so much that he refused to join one.

I think this is why I find casual guilds to be more fun. I always had the most fun in Flawless Victory and A-Team, and I got very little loot through the years I spent in those guilds. Aside from maybe a set of hate gear for my bard in Flawless Victory, and DKP spent on one Cloak of Piety in the A-Team, I earned everything outside of the guild or on /randoms at guild events. However, I got to have fun conversation with people while doing whatever I felt like doing when I logged in. I'll always be a casual guild guy; guilds are more fun when you don't care about loot and care more about having people to talk to while you're screwing around in the game. I can't imagine what fulfillment people get when they define their guilds' successes by what mobs they kill rather than the relationships they cultivate.
