To be horrifically frank, if someone wasn't in my guild/free company I would not make them core.
Period; no exceptions. The raid group is not that person's priority if they can't be in the guild that talks about it, has forum boards about it, can hear each other on a daily basis, work together, etc. It was too important of a show of commitment.
If someone was showing up as a bench spot consistently I would eventually poach them from whatever nonsense guild they were in.
I realize that sounds terrible. Sorry.
Also yeah like Liadan I disagree with this too. I'm not a FC member of my current static. Actually only 5/8 of them are. However we've been doing it for the last several months with no issues.
If your static needs a person, and someone pugs it with you, and then keeps showing up when you ask, why not make them a core member! Yes they could jump ship... but so could your FC members.
