Hate: A guild "member" that is apparently a friend of an ex-guild member, never talks, never responds to anything, hasn't done one single run of anything with us in the 6 months she's been in the guild. No one knows who she is, no one knows a thing about her other than "Oh, she's Mathies' friend."
We have a few people like this. I don't understand why they're in the guild at all, except to see some green text when they log on and/or to feel special because they're in a "top" raiding guild. Still, their presence doesn't really bother me since they're usually harmless.
What does bother me is the people who get ginvited because they're friends with a raider, and then do nothing but be dicks to our raiders/casuals and use our Vent to do arenas with their friends and such. They don't seem to like anyone in the guild EXCEPT for their little clique so why the fuck aren't they just in their own guild?

Because well, bros before bosses-I-no-longer-need-loot-off-of.
At least we finally figured out who was giving out our vent password to the ignorant douches that came in and spammed racial slurs in text-to-speech keybinds. Seriously, some people have really crappy friends.

But yeah, those too. It pisses me off even more though that some of ours are people we did recruit to raid, who said they could and would make our raid schedule, and then either did for two weeks then fucked off, or kept making excuses and saying they'd be better after finals/new job training/vacation but didn't... But instead of gkicking them as failed trials they just get demoted to honorary members because they have friends in the guild. But most of their friends are other honoraries. :x
Believe me I look for an excuse every day. Another officer really likes them and they suck up to him, so if I just gkicked them because I think they're assholes, he'd invite them back or argue that we should gkick half of the people in the guild for being assholes.

I showed an entire group of people how to sneak around all the mobs in ZF to get to Ghazrilla about 6 weeks ago. Climbing all the hills, mountains, leaps of faith, and traversing over the walls and such. They were all "gosh I've been playing forever and never knew" and I was all like, no I've been playing forever, you've been playing since BC.
then I found five dollars
That was an awesome story. :^:
Agreed.
I hope there was a bitching guitar solo going when you found the five dollars, if only in your head.
The best part being, of course, "no, I've been playing forever, you've been playing since BC." That's pretty badass.

We just kicked a good hundred characters from our guild, but they were mostly long term innactives, people who hadn't logged on (or logged onto that character) in 7-8 weeks or more.
Clearing out some asshats would be nice, but most of them aren't quite douchebag'y enough to sweat.
Have heard some chittering and chattering about class prospects for the expansion raid crew, and apparently my seat is still warm and there's already a few people looking to sit in it.
I'm not gods gift to roguery or anything, but man, I know these people, and they've got their work cut out for them.

We had a few people that annoyed the shit out of me on friends invites.
I asked for a promotion so I could get a gem out of the bank and then gkicked them with my temporary officer goodness.
I was promptly demoted but they weren't invited back to the guild . Win.
In my last guild, a couple people joined (Who I recognized as trade chat retards) and I ridiculed them so heavily in the first hour of their membership that they gquit, called me a fag and told the guild they don't play with fags. It was deliciously satisfying.
We're starting to have issues with friend invites too.
I'm pretty cool with friend invites, cause it's just more people to bullshit with and run BRD boss with and such. But we do a poor job of screening "friends" and some of them are really starting to get to me.

Mild Hate: When people poach the "good" items from an outdoor chest/lockbox. I opened one and only found a piece of cheese and a crochet belt. So irritating.

Yeah, that's annoying. Whenever I find a chest outdoors and don't have enough room to get everything, I usually get the crappy stuff first and delete them, and then keep the good stuff.

I find it beyond annoying that I am fighting ontop of the chest and they come along and open it
I agree that it's annoying to find people who take the cash and maybe some items but leave the junk in it
I tend not to talk in guild chat or on vent
I don't talk on vent because my onboard sound is broken

This isn't a "quiet person." This person has never said a single word in /g. I've asked several people, and no one can remember ever having seen a peep from her.

We had a guy like that in my previous guild. Turns out he didn't talk in g because he didn't speak English.
Which is funny, because the guy who recruited him assured us that he gave him a very thorough interview. When we asked him about, he went all "well if he doesn't speak English I didn't recruit him" and yet, there it was, in the guild log, that Mr No Speaky Inglesi was invited to the guild by Mr Douchenozzle.
Burning Seething Hatred: No matter which character I choose to raid with, a pair of boots drop that benefits that character. My boots are the hardest thing for me to replace on all my characters for some reason. We use the simple Need if you need, pass if you don't, designated enchanter greeds to DE system.
NO matter what fucking character I'm on, the boots I need drop. Most people would love this. However, every single fucking time, some asshole rolls need on them, wins them over me, and never wears them. Just says "Oh LOL maybe for offspec someday, but wut I have is better."
I am seriously about to just stop wearing boots to raids all together. Fuck it, if the guild won't let me have any boots, because filling up their bank space is more important than letting other people actually upgrade their fucking shattrah jumpers or some piece of shit random "green of the whatever the fucks" and helping with progression, then I'll just go with out boots period.
Yes I know I could get badge boots, but now I'm so frustrated with this scenario, that has happened all the last times I've raided, regardless of zone/character, I'm going to refuse to spend my badges on boots. Simply because, they'll probably end up in some other fucks bags somehow.
(As an aside most my characters also have the PVP honor boots, but generally speaking it's not hard to find a dungeon blue/green that's better for raiding, especially as any of my ranged DPS characters)
This shit, is just wearing me down, and I'm so looking forward to the expansion, so I can roll a DK, and go bootless again.
Hate: that I can't get a group for any BC instance past Slave Pens but before the real endgame 70 stuff
I notice that too. Tons upon tons of Ramparts and BF runs. Then you hit Zangarmarsh, and the same people you just fucking ran BF with the other day, now, when you question them about running an instance, perhaps Steamvaults, or Underbog respond with
"What's instance?"
"That like devil worship? I'm not in to that kind of thing, and you really need to find Jesus."
then you get to 70, and seek an instance
"LOL u don't have a single piece of hyjal loot nub, u can't run heroic Slave pens!"
EDIT: Number 2:
My first rant seals the deal, because of my bootlessness, my DK will be nothing other than a troll. Fuck boots I say! Fuck them hard!

You know, funny thing. Shouldn't they not even be looking at it if it's off-spec? I mean... in all systems I've seen, Main Spec comes first, and have a priority over off-spec people. For instance a balance druid wouldn't have priority of a piece of melee leather gear over a fury warrior, since their main spec is for being a spell caster.
That's exactly the problem. We went from solid trustworthy raiders, to people who just fucking roll on everything they think they might be able to use some day maybe.

In the second guild that I raided with, I was nixed out of the Untamed Blade by one of the warrior offtanks. It should be noted that I was using destiny at the time and bid more DKP than the other dude.
I quit the guild about a week later.
Really, you have no negotiating power unless you are willing to walk away from the table, and if people are going to be greedy dicks to you, then I think you should evaluate how much you enjoy your guild and how well your guild treats you.
Cause right now it seems to me that your guild is telling you to get back in the kitchen.
