The creepiest thing I ever saw was a guy in our guild back during vanilla - he was 19, and had moved all the way across the country to try and be near a woman he'd raided with in another guild, who was in her 30's, married (happily), with kids. He was from Virginia, and she was in Oregon somewhere, and he was stuck in Portland working at some fast food place, spending all of his money on wow and a phone line. He never raided, grouped, or did much of anything but log onto his list of alts, we found out it was how he was stalking her, each one had different friends that knew her or were guilded with her. We had a couple of the alts in the guild, the rest we did'nt know the names of.
We figured out all of this over several months, and started talking to his old guild - and found out he had a restraining order on him for her, and was completely obsessed. He'd never seen a picture, talked to her in private or on the phone, or contacted her outside of the game, but he'd gotten her info from the guild site, and was sure if he could just talk to him, she'd see the light and leave her family to be with him.
The creepiest part is how easily he'd admit to it all, like it was something we all do.
Yeah.
We had a final confrontation with him, with us officers and the GM, to explain we were not comfortable with him in the guild, and that he needed professional help, and his responses were the creepiest and most depressing things I'd ever witnessed. He left, and we never saw him again.
