I'm sure some of them like the power. But many of them just don't want to leave their community (because let's face it, a lot of communities won't leave and don't care about the drama). They feel like they're losing a friend group. It's the same reason why people stay in shitty friend groups even when they're treated like crap. They don't want to be alone or to have to start over.
