If your guild is 25man oriented than stick with 25man. No big deal actually.

10 and 25 has its pros and cons. Certain encounters would favor 10man due to more space for spreading out. But usually based on my own opinion the benefit of class stacking in 25man would be beneficial for end game encounters compared to 10man.

Nevertheless if your a casual guild, stick with 10man. This is where we are heading... from 40man to 25 to 10. Blizzards strategy to cater for the huge casual crowd is a huge cashcow that they cant deny themselves from.

That means you want the 10 man core to carry the balance 15 ppl? A chain is only as strong as its weakest link. Dont forget that.

Go on a merit system, if u fail/dc bench them or make them pay gold for each mistake. The gold earned can be for guild repairs or crafting/buying boe's for Tanks and Healers.

If u pressure the 10man to split up especially if they are good friends, u wont see them remaining there for long.

All guild should have a strategy to channel resources towards guild progression. Here's my tip.

1) When raids are on farm status then MAXIMIZE this time for guild to earn gold, selling mounts/achieve/Selling unwanted BoE's. Gold earned by the guild at this time is VERY VERY important for next tier progression. E.G. Buying mats to craft all possible gear or even buying BoE from AH for your main tanks/off tanks/healers.

2) During raid progression, mistakes by guildies will be penalized in ep 1st then gold then MOAR gold in exponential effect then finally replaced. The gold that the guild received from there will be channeled back as guild repair fees/free flask.

3) During progression, all BoE's should be handed out to outstanding players mainspec(raid performance, attendance, loyalty) without charge. If they are buying for their offspec, 50% of AH prices apply. All BoE must be equipped on the spot.

Tl/DR: Dont make gold out from guildies during progression status. Help them to progress and you will be on farm status sooner than ever to make more gold for your guild's next tier progression. Plan ahead to avoid loot drama.
