Are there any rules in English?
Grammar, spelling, syntax, pronunciation, etc.
Not just guild lines.

Yes. I’ve posted an example for you here
Spelling is also important.
Welcome to Fluther. The grammar police will be here soon to assist you.
Of course there are, what do you mean? Do you want a list?
Note that no language in the world comes with rules. That’s something we tend to forget. Rules come later to explain how languages work to the people who are trying to learn them (especially non-native speakers). And the funny thing is that a language is a living thing, and therefore changes, and so the rules eventually have to change. With huge fights among linguists every time.
Welcome to Fluther, enjoy your stay!
The first rule of English? Don’t talk about English. Oh wait, that’s Fight Club.
Nevermind.

OK.. There are rules. This book points a lot of them out.
@SuperMouse . . .that was so gonna be my answer. well done.
Αn English guild is an entirely different kettle of fish from a guilde. It is true that followers of both are craftsmen, and Guild members tend not to mix metaphors.

Ah ok, thought you were asking an actual question.
What’s with this “English?” Theres no English. There’s never been any English.
Kind of like the Mafia.
@Jack79 I think he/she is.
@Flutherings It would be helpful if you put some details in your profile or the details part of your question so that we know if you are a non-native speaker.
There are many rules in the English language and unfortunately, there are also many exceptions to the rules. If you want to study it seriously, you will probably want to go to a bookstore and get yourself a book of English grammar and usage. There are many good ones to choose from.
