My SK hits about right in PvP. But in PvE I routinely miss 4-5 times consecutively with a 12-56 weapon. That's like 30 seconds of whiffing. My group complains of the breeze I'm creating.

Pretty sure combat skills play a huge part. Having a 2h slash at 25 contributes to you missing a lot.

Also you are no doubt using a shit garbage two hander so that doesn't help. So that coupled with terrible combat skills due to low level you are:

1. Missing due to skills
2. Hitting like a turd on the rare occasion you score a hit

Things will change whenever you get a better weapon and level a bit.

This is skewed a lot by perception and inaccurate memories. The hit rate was always lame until higher levels, but after playing weird emu servers or modern MMORPGs where whiny players made devs reduce or eliminate misses, many people can't remember what classic melee was like anymore. It feels especially bad right now because everyone's in crap gear and low level. The main factor in hitting your opponent is level difference, and you don't fight mobs 6-7 levels below you when you're level 12 because they'd be green. At 40+ you fight low blues more as the range grows bigger and it becomes more effective to chain-pull endless easy mobs rather than kill shit close to your level.

The hitbox for melee hitting me is crazy. I have cable 5/15 etc and think my connection is pretty good, but it looks like I am getting hit from 50 feet away...

That's just default server lag. The actual hitbox isn't particularly big.

The hitboxes are absolutely tiny here compared to Live, to answer one of your questions. I also seem to miss a lot, but so do mobs, so it tends to even out, just make fights last longer which is unclassic and tedious.
