Re: Where do you see Stonewall going?
I like the idea of expanding slowly. I for one may be enticed to come back and play TOR with my friends here.
I'd caution against starting a guild in a game because Cryptic made it...specifically for that reason. While I love STO and know that the developers have worked hard to do right by it, their games have a pattern of having the same issue...great titles/concepts, and they drop the ball (or launch too early), which ends in losing a lot of players after the first few months...so I'd say keep an eye out on their games, but be cautious about putting a lot of time and effort into starting a guild there if no one is going to be playing it in 3 months.
Also, once you expand to new games, you'll probably see people migrate away from some and into others, and the concentration of people may not be in the game you expect (just a heads up from my previous guild experiences).
But, by and large, this is a great group of people, and I'd say if a few members are interested in going to another game (that the whole fleet isn't interested in pursuing), maybe let them start a guild there and make an alliance with them (list them on the forums, etc). That way, they can still play with their stonewall friends in other games.
