Such a Low Bar

Just a general question: how many people have you had to throw out of a guild for acting incredibly immature and ultimately throwing everything they have away in the name of redemption? I'd like to know upfront if you're the type to rage quit over a frenzied.

I've dismissed members for complete inactivity, game rage, endless whining and potential evidence of cheating, with and without discussing it with them before hand. Often times a discussion amongst guild leadership will take place prior to dismissal. I trust my fellow guild leaders implicitly.
Some instances have been overly harsh, blunt or uncouth but everyone has been understanding. Except maybe that one guy who, regardless of literally every active member of the guild helping him learn how to survive here, he moaned incessantly about 'losing everything' every time he makes any progress. He was a Trammelite to the core and really should not be on the shard, let alone in the guild. We tried for a long time before he raged out on everyone and walked, so I dismissed him.
If you are going to flip out on anyone, especially a guild mate, for the loss of something as trivial as a mount, you probably shouldn't play UO.
However, I do still feel bad for the time Damien lost his frenzied after we dirted Yitamin in the dungeon and got dragon bombed by his tamer. He had that frenzied for over a year or something. I can't even fathom a mount living that long under my saddle.

I think the extent of his rage at the time was "Damnit, I had that frenzied for a long time. Oh well" (maybe paraphrased a bit ;P)

Funny coincidence here: I just had to ban an A^T member from my public for hoarding all the free food meant for visitors. He literally pulled over 30 un-stackables from all over the room, and when I caught him doing it he immediately recalled.

He was clearly just visiting. I'll keep that in mind next time I'm hungry near your place.

Come by: we got free food every day. Not as much these days, though, thanks to the herbs.

I was raging pretty hard at an npc in the stable that trapped me with a cow beating my skull in.
