There's an important error that needs to be corrected. Guild Currency isn't generated from guild members who earn experience, but from Guild Experience Points.

From the Liveblog:

"Players earn guild experience in a variety of ways.

You can level your guild up through 20 levels of guild leveling.

Killing a boss, rated bgs, areans, profession, and reputation ranks will all help level the guild."

So, guild experience (GEP) will be translated from boss kills, rated battlegrounds, and arenas, which are all group-oriented methods of gaining Guild Experience. Also, gaining profession and reputation ranks (which are obviously solo) will contribute to Guild Experience.

GEP will allow the guild to level, which will allow the guild to earn talent points. Talent points can buy perks or afford new abilities, none of which will be game-breakingly crazy, but will be useful for guilds big and small.

ADDITIONALLY, GEP will turn into the Guild Currency, which will be spent for the items listed above.

I'm glad you clarified that. I re-read the article thinking I had missunderstood the entire thing.
