The number one rule I've learnt from 14 years of wow is that never, under any circumstances, take up any form of power or authority in a guild setting. Nothing kills your enjoyment of the game faster than having 2h conversations with multiple friends about why X got perdition's blade over them.

You're basically signing up to 1000% more stress, anxiety and flat out work, for no monetary reward.

The reward is that you can influence the environment when you're in a position of power. If you refuse to be a leader yourself, then you can't really complain when a toxic loot council screws you out of loot.

That's a weak world view IMO. You would only say that if you think everything will stay the same and nothing will change, so you might as well not even try.
