Are guilds in every MMO part of a shady group?

In every MMO I play I see people with the same guild names. I wonder if it is part of the shady organization that is performing domestic surveillance on me. Ever since I made fun of player in this game and told them constantly that they were on ice I have gotten strange text messages saying hi. I have also been followed. My life has been a living hell. I also noticed people in this game talk about certain topics that were similar to something I was going through. Please whoever is doing this stop.

    Usually if it's guilds with the same name in multiple games they are probably connected, however not guaranteed to be the case. It is common practice in other MMORPGs for guilds to stalk, grief, bribery with the goal to isolate others, and more. Usually there is nothing you can do but stick it out but it is a pretty miserable experience.

    However such behavior is completely unacceptable.

    My experience with guilds in Mabinogi is they are either inactive or expect to much of you. There doesn't seem to many chill guilds that have a good balance (although it has been years since I've tried joining one so it may be better now). I assume every guild has their own agenda for wanting to recruit me so I don't join cause I don't need the drama. Once we actually get a guild update which we are long over due for I will try joining a guild again. These guild updates already exist in South Korea so it would not be a difficult update to give us.

    I have not experienced guilds in Mabinogi doing those toxic things specifically but have in other mmo games. Usually guilds are afk way to much with 90% of their members inactive for months or you just get a bossy guild leader who has no idea what they are doing. But yeah, I agree behavior like that is completely unacceptable. Toxic guild behavior is why I decline any guild invites now.
