Big drama between friends. What should I do?

Anonymous
Me F22 recently started gaming with a few people online. Two of the guys, M20 and M27, are currently in a very childish fight.

It started when M27 started talking shit about M20. After he had done it multiple times, I told him to stop. He got really pissed off and removed me as a friend. I was really upset about this, but M20 told me the other guy was the issue here.

We later found out a third person who is friends with M27 has been sending unwanted messages to two of the girls in our group. M20 gets extremely pissed off and really wants to somehow speak with the guy about what a disgusting guy he is.

One week later, M27 and pervy guy join me out of nowhere in the game. M20 join quickly as well to back me up. A fight breaks out where everyone but me is just calling each other names. M27 says that if I'm a good girl and stop being friends with such a trash person as M20. He'll welcome me back as a friend. I just tell him that I prefer being friends with M20 because he hasn't really done anything to me.

Almost a month passes and M20 who hade been given login to M27's second account (before the fight). Gets the account permanently banned. I, of course, tell him this was wrong, but I won't exactly stop being friends with him because of this. I just don't agree with what he did. This starts up the drama again, and M27 goes after me immediately, being upset about me being friends with such a lowlife.

But the thing is... I'm not the only one in our group who's still friends with M20. And that's been stated multiple times. At this point, everyone on M20's side is making jokes about M27 having an obsessive crush on me and stuff. I'm just so confused in all this. Neither seem to want to stop. They just keep triggering each other over and over again. It's extremely tiring. All I wanted was for everyone to just get along. But instead, they're all being so childish...

What would you do in this situation? I don't want to stop being friends. I don't have many friends irl.
