Giving high level herb nodes a ~1% chance to give a Lotus would end this madness overnight. You’d never go for that though given the stacks of Lotus you admit to exploiting during layering.
Glinda is just a troll. I wouldn’t take what she says too seriously.

shows maybe 4.5 to 5k but because of the issues i already described with using the /who method this number is likely inflated.
The graph shows a very clear cap of 5k starting from some time in January. Remember, not every one of those scans is going to be done at full capacity.
You mean it’s deflated due to people logging out.
They won’t.
Not an exploit, just taking invites from my various accounts so we could wave at each other.
Just wait until the wipes start in Naxx.
You know flasks last through death, right?
You can post them at that price, and you’ll move very few when the wipes start happening in naxx.
Watch what happens to the price when 40 people start flasking instead of just the tank.
Prices won’t change much, because people aren’t going to have enough gold to pay 500g for a flask.
40 people won’t be flasking when the wipes start happening in naxx
Oh, I think you’ll be surprised.
Which is the result of an inaccurate calculation method so it can’t be taken at face value.
Those census addons might be nifty to give an overall long term picture of a realm but they aren’t reliable for snapshotting concurrent logins.
And inflated by people logging in.
Prove it. 
They’ve been remarkably accurate for doing exactly that.
So the two effects balance.
I’ve gotta be honest with you. With way the census addons scan people, there isn’t much deviation due to either of these effects.

got a blue citation on that?
Prove it.
Not really, the queue system doesn’t fill in people who left with the exact same class/spec/zone.
They scan through names methodically by level, race, class, and name, so the error from this is minimized.
If you want proof, you’ll need to use the addon yourself.
You’d rather be wrong.
Prove it.
Over a long period of time, so it is not an accurate snapshot of players logged in at any one time.
That’s just how the add on works.
I did use the addon, and when you see how it works it’s pretty apparent how much room it has for error.
I did, I already showed you a quote saying that the end goal was realms the same size as vanilla.
You have yet to show anything that disproves that.
Nope. They used to take a long time when there were 12.5k people online, and were still remarkably accurate. Now that there are far fewer, it takes a few minutes.
That’s just how the addon works. You’d know if you had ever used it.
Where did you post this proof?
I can see from the data that the realms are much bigger than they were in vanilla.
You have yet to show anything that disproves that.
