1.)There's 3 guilds raiding. Fresh Azrael and Holocaust.

2.)Holocaust is the zerg, there's no PVP only guilds, Azrael does both PVE and PVP.

3.)Holocaust is currently the only guild that really manages to get big targets, and this is due to their overwhelming numbers. (raiding with 80 players). Why did Holocaust manage to get that big? Because the staff failed miserably at emulating weekly patch day respawns. Because of this all of the content spawns at the same time for months on end, and zerg type guilds can present themselves with an overwhelming force and cancel PVP opportunities. (Simulated respawns were implemented in an effort to emulate this feature, but most of the times months pass by without triggering and guilds have no opportunity to generate meaningful momentum because of it). In addition to that, Kunark has very few bosses and zones worth Raiding, making it additionally easy to monopolize the content through zerg methods.

Holocaust is not unique in the zerg business, the guild Nihilum before them was similar. Except they had some level of standards, so their size wasn't as insane and occasional PVP occured with them.

4.) Some members of friends enjoy participating in lower level PVP, since the higher end PVP is pretty dry(refer to answer #3) . Some categorize this as griefing.

5.) Many guilds like Fresh have come about in the past, with the intention of being different. However, once more refer to answer #3. These guilds never have much of an opportunity to generate momentum past your planar trash clear. Most of the times guilds like this one get absorbed, or are bullied into an alliance that ends up making them weaker in the end, or ceases their existence.
