While I'm sure there are people like that out there, the assumption that a majority of guilds with long apps have leadership who think this way is a bit harsh. All great points and I agree with you nor do I believe that its all guilds or even a majority of them that require such things are self-involved monkeys that need a pat on the back. Again typed with a smile on my face much like Sena posted in her reply!
I understand that it's hard to find an ideal guild that suits your tastes while also having an application process that's efficient and convenient. But the whole point that Kai was trying to make is that... guild leaders (the good ones, at least) mainly do what's best for their group and their style. The way you go about applying to a guild with a tavern/cafe theme just isn't going to be the same as a guild that revolves around guerrilla warfare.
Some guilds NEED a lengthy app because their leadership wants you to prove that you have strong writing skills/grasp of the lore. Some guilds NEED to have an IC interview process because the guild concept may literally be a company or an employment agency... and interviewing your character makes the most sense for bringing them in. Then you have other guilds that fall somewhere in the middle of every method you can think of.
It's not about ego. It's just preference. I dunno what else to tell ya.
