| Considering a guild server transfer
My current server is one of the lowest ranked launch servers in terms of progression and in the bottom third overall.
We're a self-described "progression" guild but within two weeks of forming we still don't have enough members showing up on time to make a full guild 25-man. I'd say that it takes roughly two hours of advertising in trade chat to get one recruit who may or may not show up to most raids on time and prepared. Out of those recruits, probably only 1/3 is an acceptable raider and 1/6 could be considered very skilled.
Most of our membership is made up of people who either took a break midway through Ulduar or are just coming back through Burning Crusade. We have about 8 very skilled players and I make a point of weeding out people who can't or won't perform well. There has also been a fair amount of drama in the past week and our raid leader had to step down due to him getting a nighttime job.
The population on our server is very high, but the progression population is relatively tiny. I and several other guild members are strongly considering transferring to Mal'Ganis Horde and reforming there, as there are more than 20 guilds as progressed or more progressed than our top guild.
Has anyone else here made a similar jump? Do you have any suggestions?
