Like stated above, it will be a very long and slow process to build a successful top 25 or even top 100 guild. You will need to start a guild with a couple of friends that you know will not leave or quit when they see a glimpse of failure. You have to start by recruiting anybody, and I mean anybody you can get to join. If they are a good player, they will help you achieve higher ranks and than they may leave, but the rank that they helped you achieve will attract more players. More players means more of a chance to find a good and dedicated player for that time being, or they might stick around as they grow fond to the people and the guild. As you climb up the ranks, you will keep attracting more and more strong players that will help you climb the ranks even further.

Note that making a top 100 guild will take months to create from scratch and a top 25 guild will take even more time to do due to leechers. If you plan on having a top 250 guild, you will need to start looking out for leechers and kick them immediately because they will keep doing it if you let them.
