I've thought some more about improvements to the guild system in Vanguard and have come up with these:

Basically I find it a PITA to recruit with no tools geared for recruitment. I can't spam the channels advertising my guild as that would annoy people.

So I thought, why not have a tool where you can advertise your guild, like on a bulletin board in-game (kind of like the one they have in EQ1 but improve on it). You would be able to give the name off your guild, say what kind of guild it is (casual/hardcore/role play/etc), what races/classes/levels the guild needs, and say what other preferences/requirements your guild has. On the flip side, if you are looking for a guild, you can advertise that, and say what you are looking for etc as well as giving the details such as your level/race/class/etc. And then have a dedicated guild channel where people can spam to their hearts content. Only guild recruiters and people who are looking to join guilds would see this channel, as it can be turned on/off at will, just like most other channels. Thiss could be used in addition to other recruiting methods.
