With the new stat showing how much resources you've spent will this lead to guilds not wanting players based on how much resources they've spent. Will this lead to a leech stigma? Will players be forced to maintain a level of spending to stay in guilds? I can see it now "Guild looking for players who spend 10k gems a month".

I used to be p2p, but stopped as it cost way too much. I now play f2p but occasionally buy a couple of hundred crystals now and then.
I'll be looking for a laid back guild to just kinda chill and chat with while I play.
On a side note:
Lol, people keep saying "P2P" as though this games REQUIRES a subscription to play. Yes, P2P actually means something, and is not a synonym for P2W. You are not "paying to play". You are playing for free, but CHOOSING to pay. F2P and P2P are specific business models. One, everyone plays for free, with Microtransaction options. The other, the only people that can play are those who pay a one-time, monthly, or yearly fee, upfront or installments, to gain access to the game; and based on modern games, also have Microtransaction options. MMORPG's were/are well known for the latter.
Depends what guild you join
I believe it is a feature they mentioned adding.
you can't yet. They will come in the update released later this week.

In these kind of games it costs to stay on top.
If it's only raids and stuff within the guild that you complete even without putting in a lot of $ then noone will care about that req.
I figure there could be some guilds that have nothing but pay for players who have elite teams that may require this and that is fine, so long as those players know this is important from Day 1. I would never switch gears in a guild and start demanding that later....

Hi, the notes don't mention it'll show crystal spend. It says
Total Arena Battles Won/Lost
Total Galactic War Battles Won
Total Sim Tickets Used
Total Energy Spent
Total Data Cards Opened
Total Credits Spent
And more!
I doubt they'll show crystal spend as that's personal information and indicative of your in game spending that you may not want others to know about.
The other things they've mentioned credits, energy, sim tickets and even data cards (to a point - if they separate bronzium and chromium that's bad) will be more relative to how long you've been playing and therefore only relevant if your start date is included and how many days logged in and if you can be bothered to sit there with a calculator to crunch the numbers.
In all honesty most of these stats aren't really going to be useful in selecting potential guild mates. I think a players roster will be more useful.
@fudgra - They most definitely won't be auto assigned
Some might be jerks, and do that, but I don't care. Money does not equal a descent squad. Unless someone's spends thousands to max the character's out. Which would take a substantial amount and I haven't met a whale that fat yet. Might gut them and sell the blubber if I do.
The only Guild will be of the FO.
Yes! The Furball Order.
We Ewoks will subjugate every last one of you.

And I've got a Really Big Can 'o Raid.

I beat the REAL T7 Yoda (not the nerfed one) and did so before mods were there to help
