What Does This Mean?

[ GAMING ][ DEGEN ECONOMY ]

An organized group of players who band together in an MMO for shared goals like raiding, socializing, or resource sharing, one of gaming's earliest and most enduring social-organization structures.

REAL-WORLD EXAMPLE

"Our guild has been running together for over a decade at this point."

LORE & ORIGIN

Borrowed the medieval craft-guild concept into early MMOs from the late 1990s onward, establishing the standard persistent-community structure that nearly every subsequent MMO and many other online games built their social systems around.
