I run my own guild. The only thing I care about is war activity and that everyone is consistently leveling (to 100) and working on their armors. I have no min gold donation (though we get between 20 and 30 million donations per week). If you are an active GM and diffuse potentially hostile situations, then your guild will follow you. I have 0 drama in my guild. I base promotions off of the # of battles fought each war. After each war, I tally up everyone's battle totals and reassign the officer positions accordingly. Champ is the guy who consistently fights the most battles each war, while the off war time Sentinel position goes to the 2nd place guy. I have a war time Sentinel who's the strong member of the guild.

If someone is inactive a couple wars in a row (without letting me know ahead of time), then I'll boot them. It also depends on what your expectations are for your guild. If it's just a casual guild, then it doesn't matter. If you want to build it to make a run at top 25, then be prepared to lead by example (this will include spending gems). I'm consistently in the top 4 in my guild during wars for points/battles fought. Though I have guys that spend a couple hundred gems per war.
