Ever had to just give up on a static?

[Nora_of_Mira]

When I would try to bring up issues during non-raiding times, the group never had much to say in the Discord channel almost like they were offended I'd try to have a discussion about problems.

this is a major red flag and should be the main thing you prioritize moving forward into forming a new static. A static should be formed of like-minded folks who ALL want to learn together and progress together, it simply will not work if 3/8 people want to just bash their head with little to no communication. I'm sorry for your struggles but these folks are wasting your time and their own. I hope you have better luck finding a new static with a shared interest.
