Honestly having to pass a raid every now and then is quite a normal thing in a raiding guild. You can’t run a guild with exactly the same amount of raiding members as there are spots. Things happen, you need reserves. I don’t think its a good idea to put pressure on members to volontary pass for raids. But taking turns is normal. In our guild the RL decides who will be drafted for a raid. Class composition always goes first, but if that is equal, he will follow a list, so that all members sooner or later will be left out of a raid. But if you’ve been, you know that it won’t happen next raid. Of course it sucks to see the other play and not be a part of it. But really, it’s something you have to learn to live with.

Sucks doing the “right” thing doesn’t it?

That was generous of you to let them take someone new, but I can really understand where you’re coming from there. In my other guild, we were a lot smaller and short on healers, so I was always invited (in fact, needed to come) to all the raids and runs. Once, someone wanted to come on an alt and I volunteered to let them go, and I felt so left out and didn’t know what to do with myself either. I thought I would be happy of the break, but I wasn’t. Funny how that happens, isn’t it.
