I made a list of the 50 largest clans in September 2011, now I'm going to compare that to the modern top 20 or so.
As a note, "Was not ranked" means it wasn't in the top 50 in 2011, it doesn't mean the top 20. Many clans listed as "was not ranked" most likely did not exist in 2011.
It has been roughly three and a half years since the 2011 rankings were taken.
#1: -2011: FEAR - 90084 members -2015: RAT - 186635 members
#2: -2011: VS - 71136 members -2015: FEAR - 168934 members
#3: -2011: RAT - 51260 members -2015: VS - 121891 members
#4: -2011: WIJ - 31099 members -2015: TD - 120327 (WAS NOT RANKED IN 2011)
#5: -2011: TRA - 25451 members -2015: Veloxic Empire - 108870 (WAS NOT RANKED IN 2011)
#6: -2011: UCR - 24208 members -2015: USA - 103498 members (WAS NOT RANKED IN 2011)
#7: -2011: UAF - 14312 members -2015: BWE - 89692 members (WAS NOT RANKED IN 2011)
#8: -2011: FC - 11759 members -2015: Ice Legion - 67789 members (WAS NOT RANKED IN 2011)
#9: -2011: GoA - 10280 members -2015: JC - 65933 members
#10 -2011: APN - 8300 members -2015: LS - 62661 members (WAS NOT RANKED IN 2011)
#11 -2011: RBA - 7439 members -2015: USSF - 62147 members (WAS NOT RANKED IN 2011)
#12 -2011: RSF - 7383 members -2015: TRA - 50492
#13 -2011: SB - 6913 members -2015: VSO - 54373 members (WAS NOT RANKED IN 2011)
#14 -2011: JC - 6576 members -2015: FWC - 48963 members (WAS NOT RANKED IN 2011)
#15 -2011: RT - 6259 members -2015: HAU - 47680 members (WAS NOT RANKED IN 2011)
#16 -2011: NB - 6225 members -2015: WIJ - 47022 members
#17 -2011: Spetznaz - 6097 members -2015: IF - 41339 members (WAS NOT RANKED IN 2011)
#18 -2011: FEAR - 5736 members -2015: UCR - 39227 members
#19 -2011: RoC - 5638 members -2015: SWC - 38025 members (WAS NOT RANKED IN 2011)
#20 -2011: VK - 5435 members -2015: RS - 37385 members (WAS NOT RANKED IN 2011)
Interesting notes:
* RAT quadrupled in size, passing FEAR. FEAR nearly doubled in size but not quite.
* WIJ dropped from #4 to #16. UCR went from #6 to #18. Both tied in rank loss.
* 13 of the current top 20 clans were not ranked or possibly even in existence in 2011. As such, 13 of the top 20 clans from 2011 are no longer among the top 20.
* UAF is the highest ranked 2011 clan to not make the top 20 current clans. Their rank dropped from #7 to #30.
* The 20th ranked clan now is larger than the 4th ranked clan in 2011
********* Though not listed, the 50th ranked clan now (USM - 16092 members) is larger than the 7th ranked clan in 2011. (this one kind of blows my mind)
* JC grew to 10x it's previous size, rising from #14 to #9
* The top 3 clans from 2011 are still the same clans as the top 3 in 2015, but the order is shuffled around.

| yeah, RAT looked like it was going to fall hard after Donkeyo4 / ColourTheory left (and they really did fall hard for a while). I'm impressed with the turnaround they made |

i like to call cj's era the dark ages because it was one of the only eras without a significant tech upgrade.
and because he liked to halt any attempt at progress.
Frigid is cool |

I wish APN and the BTMpire were still there. That was fun.

| I missed the RAT - X101st but I hear it was great. Fighting against X101st was always fun and I never even actively participated in a war against them - their bases were just fun |
