Yes U are missing something. a lot of the user count is afk levelling pigs or skills.
There is a difference between active players who are in game 4 ot more peak times a week and others that log on less often
I cannot check how many are in each guild but I estimate 60 in Elite with 20+ active regularly at peak times
Hells gate looks more like 40 with 15 active
The rest are small guiilds like original poster said with 5 irl life mates members - there are quite a few of these and people who left guild to get 30% exp buff. There's a couple of guild with maybe 15 members.

Its not all about ping.
Its mainly about kit. People who spend ALL day or Multi have the most gold. They then refine their items beyond what should be allowed tbh.
This then ends up with OP players and players who are not at the same kit level crying about balance.
SPEED has always mattered TINY XP n acpi tweak players always smashed everyone else. Few can even land a hit on fastest players because they moved before slow one aimed. Ping and pc stats and set up = speed.
AFter that its level and kit here. So the players that had 1% dc items before anyone else had a real couple months head start over the rest.
In regards to the guild situation i presume you are referring to Elite and Hellsgate?
You only notice them because of the likes of Mihawk shouting abuse at people 14hours a day. Their are a few other bigish guilds, whom know better than to mouth off and cause grief
.
I said there's other guilds quite a lot of em. They might get Pk or not depending on mood of teh big mouths - who will then advertise it.
Point is that few can or even try to oppose the big one. SO it isnt even a two guild server any more it's a one guild one
