There's actually quite a few reasons I can think of for not actually using it:
1) Player is an idiot who doesn't read server descriptions
2) Player wanted the option to legally buy money, but never ended up actually doing it (if EQ2 players are anything like WoW players, a server full of gold buyers would be trivial to make vast amounts of money on)
3) Player with multiple accounts, and only traded on one of them
4) Alts/abandoned characters. It sounds like someone who rolled a character on a SE server and only made it to level 2 would be counted as a non-partipating person, dragging the percentage down.
