We have the raiders who RP and the RPers who raid and the RPers who don't really want to raid. We have restrictions on how people are supposed to RP and that causes drama with people saying "you can't tell me what I can or can't do with my character." Our loot system is simple: Upgrade > RP gear > Disenchant > Sell. If someone is an asshole they'll generally find out about it and then if it persists be asked to leave.

Its who you are and how you are perceived. If you suit your guild and it suits you back, then it should be an excellent mix. If not, find a new guild.

I think a lot of it has to do with the make-up of our guild in that it has mature players who enjoy the game for a lot more than purple epix and enjoy the guild for more reasons than just providing a convenient way to access those epix.
