I remember liking read the drama about alliances and betrayals in EVE and even though I never played the game I always enjoyed reading about it. That is with the condition that everything is done in game, I'm not a fan of the whole social engineering outside the game to rip people off angle.

Now to me in mmo games EVE players are a BIG red flag as the vast majority of them from my experience will bring their EVE mindset to other games and try the same tactics. Before if someone wasn't happy with the guild they would just leave or form a competing guild but these people might engage with people more, even pretend to be real life friends in order to rise in the ranks and to ultimately steal everything or will try to cause people to turn on each other so that the guild breaks apart. Who wants to deal with that? its crazy.
