Specifically, no one wants to publicize their phone number, personal information, etc. So - - - how do you do it and still protect guild members' privacy???

Thanks - - -
Being a tad cynical, I'm not sure I'd feel entirely safe posting my phone # on FB no matter what...but you can make 'closed' and 'secret' groups on the service...which allows *some* privacy. Secret groups will not allow the group name to be searchable, and it will not show members' memberships to the group. Closed groups will show who is a member - visible by anyone, but the posts themselves are not visible.

Hope that link helps some!
