I can see you like being in a guild with many people. But why would a "huge, friendly" guild beat a "low level friendly guild?" Err. Maybe you didn't mean it the way it seemed. I know occasionally having low levels in a guild can cause many inactives, but when did levels prove anything? They most definitely have never proved loyalty or character. Having a "huge, friendly guild" with everyone being an officer isn't an automatic win-win. Personally, in a guild, I like working to become an officer, not join and become an officer straight away. And the other downside; any officer could invite anyone. This, no matter how it is now, will slowly if not quickly turn into a huge problem. There's almost no organization, and most people in the guild won't have knowledge of each other.

That's a problem with huge, extremely active guilds; there is very few members actually bonding with others. To me, a guild slowly built, a huge, family guild, beats a huge guild with no-organization or guild-bonding anyday. (Not saying your guild is that. I'm saying that is what most guilds that have that kind of system are.)
