It was one of those massive everything guilds. Social-Leveling-PvE-PvP-RP. The GM had three officers, one for PvE, one for PvP, and one for RP. The PvE team was surprisingly good, from what I was told, I never did much raiding or M+. The PvP team was… Alright. They did some rateds, some arenas.
RP has been my primary focus, so I was mostly focused on what the RP team did. It was light RP with everything from bars to “grand” battles. They actually let whomever tell a story, and when some of the players made stories, they were actually pretty good! Not always, but usually a little fun.
However, the same couldn’t be said for the RP Officer’s events. They were all awful in the 
way you might expect. The guy only gave a passing nod to the lore, just enough to qualify as “Warcraft RP”. They had no problem changing up major lore points, adding and deleting entire sections of lore, and insisting that we had to follow them for our RP to “be canon”. Plus, the guy was obsessed with their own characters. They had some good ones, but most were just… Anywhere from mediocre to awful. And they were obsessed with their main. They said they weren’t, but their PFP on Discord was their having photoshopped themselves in front of some art of their main. Hell, I think they even named their pet after their main.
And the major plots always revolved around their characters. We were either rescuing them, or purifying them, or they were our “unquestionable leaders”. And they’d always get the big kill from any campaign. The officer would make us wait forever so they could write massive, dozen+ paragraph posts to describe how cool their characters were when they took down the boss. And it was always overdramatized. Sure, some of the very-casual RPers said it was all great, but most of the more serious RPers all grumbled in DMs. Eventually, most of those guys left the for other guilds.
Anyways, I made the guild up, but that’s exactly what WoW’s story feels like to me.
