Yeah, I know this isn't the best place to post this, but I've got a dilemma here...
My current guild's raid progress is decent, but the way we're going, I don't see us getting Sinestra before 4.1. I'd really like to xfer to another realm and join a higher progress guild, but I've been in my current guild for almost two years now, and I kinda don't want to just leave all the friends I made, both in the guild and on the realm. And I'd be screwing my current raid group out of a healer, and I don't know of anyone that can replace me.
I don't really want it to be like "You guys suck, I'm leaving for a better guild" sort of thing, I mean, I like the people, they're funny and friendly, I just don't like the progression. I've got a lot more free time than the people I raid with, and I want to progress further, but with my current raid, I don't see us clearing content before it becomes outdated. Just starting on Heroics now and making very slow progress on them with 4.1 coming out in 2 1/2 to 3 months...
So....I'm really stuck here. I
really
want to join a better progression guild, but I slightly don't want to leave behind the guild I've been in for 2 years, or the 10man I've been raiding with for the past 8 months.
tl;dr: I want to join a better progression guild, but not seem like an ass to the people I'm raiding with, in doing so.
Thoughts? Opinions?
No, this is not a troll post
. Shoo, troll-sayers.

I understand exactly where you're coming from, both in wanting more progression and in not wanting to leave a group of people you love playing with. Personally, I've chosen to just deal with lack of progression; finding a group of people you enjoy playing with is pretty tough to do in my experience. I'd rather enjoy the people and miss the progression than be stuck playing with a group of people I don't enjoy being around.

Honestly, does it really matter if you don't hit Sinestra before 4.1?(which by the way will probably not be for 2-3 months from now....)

I would probably stay, or at least hold out a bit longer and then reassess. Considering how long it took them to come out with one patch that did nothing but bug-fixes and class balancing a content patch could take who knows how long.

4.1 isn't for quite some time. Don't let the plethora of information fool you. If your guild is downing heroic modes, you're with competent raiders. They're meant to be hard. They're going to take some time. Transferring just to get an extra couple of bosses (you won't be getting 2-3 more than you currently have. Top guilds that are 9/13+ aren't going to take people stuck at 3/13) isn't worth it, especially considering you probably won't have a set raid spot for quite some time, and you're losing the friendships and bonds you've formed.
Work on progression. It's far more worth it when you down a boss with people you've been raiding with for months than a group of people you're completely unfamiliar with.
