Joining a guild on p99 isn't what it was like in classic though. You almost always have to apply online to the guild and join their discord. Join any of the largest 5 guilds on Green, and I can almost guarantee you will make your way to taking down that ugly mug.

Once you join a guild, a lot of the "guild activity" may happen in discord/voice, so again, not very much like classic. Guild chat isn't what it used to be in 1999. Also a lot of people are working on their own thing, with friends that they made while in guild, so just randomly proclaiming "hey does anyone wanna farm ry gorr?" Won't usually get much response. So my advice to you would be to join any one of those guilds, and just show up for things and be friendly. Eventually, you will find exactly what you are looking for.

Also get to 60 if you're not already! =)
I have no problems with discord, was in the discord of each of the guilds I was in. I'm not always super talkative, partly because I'm so used to being ignored that i'm honestly reluctant to ask for anything.

In both guilds I was in recently, I kept asking for help with Karnor's Castle so my wizard could get to the human skeleton somewhere in there for the Brain Bite spell quest. I had never been to KC beyond the entrance for using the EJ evac spell, so I definitely needed help. I could never muster a strike force for it within the guild and I ended up just quitting the wizard class as a result. I'm a druid now, currently level 24 lols.

Just honestly not sure what to do, if there even is a helpful guild out there, and I don't know whether they'd even be willing to toss me an invite.
