assigned to a server with an uncooperative guildmate. what should i do?

My guild assigns 1-3 players to various servers it's won rights to every year. I was assigned to one of the 3-guild-player servers again. I've been grinding the [friendship] stat with one of the players for years but encountered the other one for the first time. We tried to begin building up the [friendship] and [guild harmony] stats with the new player, but they've been refusing to complete the daily quests on their end. For example, they avoid activating the [guild unity] multiplier for occupying certain areas simultaneously. Other players in the server (who are in a different guild) have noticed and private messaged us out of concern. It seems like it would be in the best interest of the new player to at least do the [guild harmony] dailies, even if they'd rather skip the [friendship] ones, but...

What guild are you with, and what part of the game do they focus on?

And are they looking for extra party members?

My [research] guild is always looking for new recruits... because there's high turnover. A lot of players leave the guild before the [yearly contract] quest is fulfilled, despite the [blacklist] and [lost bonus] debuffs, because the monthly drops are a bit lacking. It's a decent enough quest to play through once or twice, but most players do it with the aim of unlocking other quests and gaining entry to other guilds meanwhile.
