Our reasoning behind having combatant below recruiter is so that you can allow people to fight in a Guild Battleground without also having to give them permissions to invite people to the guild. We believe the situation is more likely that someone joins the guild who you want to fight, but don't want to give them recruiting status.

Are players finding the opposite, that they want to allow someone to recruit members to the guild, but not fight in a Guild Battleground?
For guilds that mostly have PvE members, once a battle is accepted by the guild master, all combatants, recruiters, officers and the guild master could join. Sometimes some guildies, who are not included for the battle line up, will join just because they want to see how it looks like inside the battleground map. And as you know, once both sides have complete members, it automatically starts the ten second countdown for the battle. It does take time explaining they should leave so the spot would be free for the person it is intended to. And we have no choice but to start the battle while having to swap the members during battle.

I can't speak for other guilds, but in ours, since we are a PvE guild, it would be easier promoting the people who are "ready for battles" than having to demote the current recruiters to members just so we could make sure that no one that isn't PvP ready could join.
