Lead guilds for 15 years and #1 source of drama and issues involves girl members. Usually girls rile everyone up and cause people to pick sides.
Yes, exactly this. I remember my guild being sabotaged somewhat before gamergate by an aggressive feminista on a total lie that pretty much everyone believed about one of our officers. Put a bunch of words in his mouth and made up a bunch of shit about him without any proof whatsoever and everyone ate it up on the forums even though he came out with screenshots. It didn't matter to the zeitgeist.
Few months later he was vindicated when she started destroying another guild with the same routine - but another girl outed her.
Usually women 40+ playing WoW or something aren't so bad to be around though.
If only they did that more often.
