Guilds are not treated that way for the most part in CF. For example if you are playing an Elf and Dark-elf in your pk range strolls into the guild hall a fight would be a very normal event. Of course you could RP it anyway you want but one valid RP response is to start a fight.

What I think you might be missing about CF is that while it is a RP enforced mud the design of it is such that there is a tremendous amount of conflict built directly in, this I have always assumed was done purposefully. Most character builds have "natural enemies” that is just by your race, class, or cabal choice there will be a set of characters who will, in general, want you dead. This helps create a dynamic environment where mortal conflict is always a danger that you must be wary of. Because, as you noted besides being a RP enforced mud, CF is also a PK mud where the sentiment is often kill or be killed, and thus it is often considered good RP to enter into fights with your "natural enemies".

Anyway, just my thoughts, hope it helps.
