Am I a bad guild leader?

Did you tell them line was mandatory? Were they aware that heroic aat was the goal? Were they all participating in normal AAT (5 battles per refresh)? Were they working towards HAAT viable teams?

If the answers to the above are yes, yes, no, no, then you are not a jerk.

We did the same. We told everyone that Discord was mandatory. When tank came around, we cut everyone not on it and merged. A month later we were completing Heroic tank.

The release of the AAT was the death of many guilds. Our guild went from am active full guild easily clearing Heroic Rancor every second day (sometimes less often if someone was absent) to a barely surviving group of random 20 people struggling along and doing one Rancor a week. The only reason we haven't disbanded is because because those left are either too attached to the guild or just too lazy to look for another one. From what I hear many guilds met the same end.

So no, you're not a jerk (really? |diot is censored but jerk is not?), that's just the result of the devs' lack of foresight and releasing content without thinking of the consequences.

Just depends on the type of guild you want to run.

You can either have people all on the same page using the same chat and following rules or letting people do what they want and play when they want and just have a good time.

No wrong way, only the way you want to do it.

1) it's a freggin mobile game, not some high end content MMORPG like WoW
2) SWGOH raids are not real raids. It's sorta but it's very compartmented form of an instance.
Raids are battles where a group of players encounter an objective and not people taking turns.

Due to these reasons some players are like meh...
Also possible that some players are probably playing real mmos and playing swgoh on the side.

Line is ok but sometimes it can get really annoying.

making the guild better for the active members at the expense of the lesser active/unwilling players hardly makes you a jerk. It's not like you owe your members anything, if they choose to participate they wouldn't have been cut.

I think you're fine. They'll find another guild that's more suited to their activity level, and everyone's angst will decrease.

On a side note, if you're currently doing normal in 2-3 refreshes, I'm not sure you're ready for Heroic. Our guild takes about 6 hours to clear P1 (because we limit to one squad, and some members hold back). Once we open up FFA, it's usually down within an hour or so. That said, I think we're about 90-95% of the way towards being ready for Heroic.

You did what you needed to do to keep the guild going

If you have to ask then the answers yes

i disagree.

It doesn't make him a bad guild leader, it makes him a serious guild leader. He has what he wants to do and if people don't follow they get the boot.

i think a bad guild leader would be one that isn't very active or doesn't try to help the guildmates get better in anyway.

We were clearing normal before we did the merge. We merged with about 20 people who were clearing normal in one refresh. So at this point we have about 20 whales 50+ 7 star toons 20 serious ftp 25+ 7 stars and 10 who fall somewhere below that. I think at minimum we have a shot
