farming PQs is probably easiest way as you know that you are going to get a reasonable number of mobs in a decent sized area and it will be a constant influx of guild xp.

Well I think I would agree that PQs are probably the best way to rank up the guild based on;

i, A significant portion of the xp you get from scenarios is bonus xp at the end, which is it seems not counted.
ii, Open RVR xp is low.
iii, PVE mobs don't suffer from diminishing returns.

Probably need to keep the mob levels high enough and the groups small enough to get decent xp. 2 or 3 people's probably best. Fun times if you can bear the grind.

Should be noted that they nerfed AOE xp somehow a way back. Not sure how, or if it'd affect grinding like this.

if the group was entirely HoJ diminishing returns would only apply to each individual not the guilds xp as it would still get its share, more people = faster clear = more xp for guild ;)

Diminishing returns are a pvp mechanic meaning you get less xp for players who've been killed "recently". Really nerfs the xp you get in open rvr, and to a certain degree scenarios too, doesn't have any impact on PVE kills.

In PVE you'll be hard pressed to find anywhere that can't be kept completely free of mobs by a competent group of 3 players making use of AOE (level dependant of course). Adding more players makes it a quicker clear, sure, but the total xp is still the same so you'll just end up idle half the time.

You sometimes have to turn the Guild cloak on and off but it does, at least, show the guild colours.
