You wouldn't, because you are not in Chain.
Hm, Maplestory is at #5. I'm guessing that is more because of the Asian market than NA. Like how DFO is #3 and NA version was shut down

No, probably because Maple is Pay2Win and WoW was Pay2Play (I think, never got near WoW).

Because the numbers only include micro-transaction sales. WoW's subscriber revenue is not included.
From the article:
Quote:Despite its chronic subscriber loss, World of Warcraft managed to generate $213 million in micro-transaction sales in 2013, he said, in addition to its subscriber revenue.
