its the darkmoon covenant restricted the the 10% soul level rule when Invading and being summoned?

For invasions via the Blue Eye Stone, it's restricted to the 10% SL. Being summoned via the ring, no restrictions, just like the Forest Hunter ring. Though the game always seems to pair you up against much higher SL players.

ive noticed i keep getting summoned to a player in Anor Londo who wears the Smough armor and it seems hes seriously good at the game, ive never beaten him and ive also been summoned when theres been another Darkmoon Covenant member whos also there. and he taken us both out with ease. he must be soul level 250 or something, because im 201 now with my first and only character but it seems i no match for him.

Well, you can wear full Smough and be at your level or below I used to go full Smough for PVP at 140. 

But yeah, those situations aren't unusual. When I was PVP'ing in the garden, I got invaded by a Forest Covenant member who was at 335 (I asked him afterwards), because he dropped a huge amount of souls (over 130K). He was a full fledged magic wielder with a shitload amount of HP (99 Vitality), but even then I managed to kill him (he depleted his entire stock of magics).
