Alright, started using EPGP last week, and our guild loves it.
Thinking about using the standby list to give 100% of the reoccurring
EP award, but I'm unsure how to do this honestly. I know there's the
automatic standby list option I can check, but I'm not sure if the
whisper thing is gonna fly in our guild. So how could I go about
manually adding people to the reserve list, and only giving them
reoccurring EP?

I think you can shift-click to put people on the standby list
manually, but they will get all EP (such as boss kill EP), afaik it's
not possible to only give recurring EP to standby's.

On a side note, I myself did introduce the whisper system to my guild,
since I didn't want to do all the extra work of adding people
manually, if someone wants to earn EP, they should do something for it
imo. ;) In the beginning this wasn't met with a lot of enthousiasm,
but a guildie made a pretty nice addon to automatically whisper back:

everybody is using this addon and we are one big happy guild: I don't
have to do a lot of extra work and standby's only have to type one
command once an evening. :)

Try it first, it works quite well for a lot of guilds. If you want to do it manually, disable it and shift-click the people in and out of the standby list in the standings window.

I do like taking advantage of the whisper system. I think that it
helps remind people that they are supposed to be in a situation where
if called, they can be in the instance within 5 mins. It seems to
help prevent them going and running a heroic while on standby for the
raid.

If you plan to give full EP Credit to those on standby, you have two
other options for giving them the credit without them having to do
anything to earn it.

You can Shift-click them in the EPGP window. This should put a
checkmark by thier name showing they are going to get the awards.
This will stay throughout the duration of the raid.

Or, you can simply add them to another raid group. WoW Raids will
support up to 40 people, and all the raids are 25 max anymore. So,
simply add them to that 5th group. This wony prevent anyone else
from entering the instance, it will just stop letting people in the
instance at 25. This helps serve as a reminder for them also, but it
might make some others in the raid (such as healers) unhappy as it may
mess with thier raid-frames.
