Guild participation

Depends, in my guild there is very little required so in turn a very relaxed atmosphere. And We like it that way, no fuss, no muss. We ask that if you join tw you at least place a defense but it's not mandatory. For the tbs it's just at least dump your gp if you're not really into it and we're cool. For the raids only about 35 to 40 of us do the hstr, the pit is on sim and the tank usually only about 15 to 20 participate.
So, if you're in an extremely active and competitive guild, my guild would seem like it's inactive or has low participation. But it's all in what you want from your guild. Currently we have 44 members and for this tw only 35 have signed up. And I have posted before in the guild recruitment section before to no avail. But it's all good since all content is available and doable for us.
Some folks are looking for certain things in guilds like orginization, structure, leadership, 3rd party app useage, how well they do in tw and tb, how often and fast the raids go down etc.
Good luck and game on!

Yes, I think its just a case of turn over being accelerated a little recently. I think the constant territory wars, battles and raiding, for us at least, is showing the free loaders more. We are seeing lots join in but do zero damage which in turn is costing us victories or putting pressure on those that do participate.

Maybe some people are limited for time and GA is taking their attention.

Our current mind set is ruthless kicking of people doing zero damage until we get rid of the problem people. Its sad and it causes myself and the officers more headache. Hopefully we will slowly replace the 10-20 slackers.

We have also seen a few long time members leave since Revan first arrived.

As part of a guild that's currently sat at 23/25 for tw with 30 minutes to go; how about the ability for GMs to push a notification to members once a day with reminders to participate.

We're a casual but active guild. We don't care if you do zero damage, just join and try if possible. Especially for raids. It's the TW/TB we have a hard time filling. And GA takes up time I don't have, but that is obviously individual. We generally boot people gone longer than 7days but the way it's been, we would lose another 5 players.

We aggressively kicked, over the course of 4 months, at least 25 people. We now are full and seeing more stars in TB, some wins in TW, and everyone active daily. Just make sure you get to 50 before kicking. Make a list and boot one or two upon getting full. State rules clearly. Have an absence channel.

we've had this issue since the start...

we dither around 40-50 peoples but the attrition rate is terrible, almost every new join plays for 1-3 months and poof...inactive. out of our "active" player base we have folks that either dont or arnt able to log in every day and on occasion its a worry on if we will make in into a territory war due to 25 people needing to click join.

we only recently became able to do heroic tank raidsa month or two ago, but heroic sith seems many many miles away even though our best hitters can certainly do 4-8% each if i had to guess.

been in the same guild since the beginning. 3 years + now since guilds were introduced. no interest in new guilds, etc just really wish i could convince our less actives to just do whatever they can on a daily basis =( that and if only there were a couple new mechanics to help new players catch up easier/better and make the experience less painful for them. maybe a bigger donation system? love a "box" i can throw the 5000+ whatevers in for my guildies to take from as they need..even if it was on a daily 5-10salvage draft or whatever

hard to tell someone new to the game that they can play with you...after a year of building. no entirely true obviously but its unfortunately close enough to the truth...

You’ve been in the same guild for 3 years and only just starting to do heroic tank... if your a active player I’d highly recommend joining another guild as most have been doing heroic tank for ages and at least half been farming heroic sith

Same boat as you all. Fairly chilled guild of mostly grown up 80s kids ( or never gonna grow up in my case ) so we all have lives and families. Even then, it is getting a bit disheartening as participation is slowly dying down to a core group of maybe 25 out of the 44 we have.

Reality is that you can't force someone to play more than fits their lifestyle. We just don't seem to be attracting enough newish hungry active players to balance out the chilled-ness, so that's where we're gonna focus I think

Our guild always sits around 31/50 to 33/50. Can’t seem to fill with players willing to follow a couple of simple rules

Ya, gotta agree with OP. We've had this same issue in our guild lately. Not sure what it is, but people just aren't participating in the events much anymore. They'll log in daily, but they either don't know to join or miss the events. Kinda sucks.

We've had a lot of people leave after the whole Malak thing. I think people are getting fed up with the game. 10 people have left. 3 let us know in Discord and the other 7 just stopped playing. We just started consistently clearing heroic sith raid too. I guess not even traya shards could get people to stick around.

CG is killing this game.
