Say you and your best friends form a guild on a server away from your mains to simply play together, since one of you has moved very far away and hanging out in real time is no longer possible. It is agreed that you are all officers with equal power, and that you are the core of the guild. Adding new members is not necessarily the goal.
Say you, as one of the friends, are not on as much as the others, because you have school and work full time, in addition to a significant other and attempting to build a social life in a state halfway across the country. After a week and a half or so, you log on for some serious play time because you finally have a night that's free and clear of obligations. Upon finally getting in [because the other two are the smart ones who chose a nearly full realm to start on, which is now a locked realm], you find that you've been demoted. You have no power within the guild. One of the others signs on, and you ask them why. They say that it's because the other members [aka strangers] have been complaining about you never being on and having more power than them. Would you be upset? Do you think it's understandable to be upset? Finally, would you think that your best friend kicking you out of the guild would be a viable reaction to you being upset?

Sounds like ingame bs. maybe the guild is heading in a new and different direction than it was previously formed upon. who cares if you have no 'power' in the guild. it is just agame just play it to have fun. you dont have to be the same rank to chat when online with your friend do you? hell you dont even have to be in the same guild to chat and run things with them.
Sure you can be a little upset but remember at the end of the day it doesnt really matter, its only a game and sometimes plans change.
I dont know if est is trolling you or not but seriously dont let a game dictate your real life even if your friend 'demoted' you and you are feeling all buthurt
clockworkjames:
est - keep doing what you are doing and run some instances ASAP, I can assure you that the people you will be put in a group with will have put nowhere near as much though as to how to play their class as you have, so just go with it. Nobody takes fury warriors seriously but you need to learn how to play in a team situation as early as possible. Also your build looks pretty spot on.
masquerade - Take it on the chin and shrug it off, there is no real use to being an officer other than E-Peen, if the rank affected how you played the game you should not even bother playing, guilds are meant to be for banter and easy groups, then at engame raiding and HC's. If you never played for ages you should expect to be demoted, people move on and progress but getting pissy enough about it so as to have your "best friend" kicking you out of the guild is a bit lame, in fact you make it sound like a bunch of friends played WoW for the first 30 something levels then you stopped and now your friends are all in outlands trying to improve the guild.
I play on 4ish servers, my main is alli hellscream and I play boulderfist horde with friends, the friends have nowhere near as much experience with the game but I play with them for fun and linked accounts makes it a laugh, they had the guild "set sail for fail" which I am still in but due to naxx/hc's/that 25man dragon raid I was not on for a week and 2 members made a new guild (we eat tables) that alot of my SSFF friends joined. I nevber got an inv, I didn't expect one. In SSFF I never even had GB privelages and didn't care, I am good at what I do, I help my friends and that is all that matters. We are not even in the same guild, getting annoyed over guild status is not just pathetic but more than a little retarded. My main on hellscream has restricted GB access (1 stack a day) but I put loads of ore/mats/random scrolls and pot's I will not use in it all the time to help the guild because it makes sense.
masquerade:
It's not the demotion that really bothers me all that much, it's that they're kind of going back on what they said. Originally, the guild was supposed to be just the crew, no one else unless we really hit it off with another player. And it was agreed that if we decided to grow, that the crew would remain the core officers, with equal power [like I said]. It just irritated me that they'd taken the whining of inexperienced strangers to heart rather than the agreement we'd all made as friends. Also, I confronted her about it, yes, but it didn't warrant a kick from the guild. That's just how she handles things. She "punishes" her friends for making her mad or calling her judgment into question.
est:
My point was that a bunch of friends said they would do something and then ditched one of the friends because some random fucks said so. Who cares where it happened, it's the thing itself that would give me the shits.
And yeah, that sucks, masq. Sounds like your friend is a bit of a bitch :(
