It's a Feature, Not a Bug

[Mahoodle-wyrmrest-accord (Mahoodle)]

I’ve been playing since late Vanilla/Early BC, but I’ve never gotten a beta invite in my life. My wife has been playing nearly as long, but hasn’t put in nearly as many hours. Still, she got one for BfA and I didn’t.

I’m pretty sure there’s a more complex algorithim at work than simply time subscribed/played. They probably want to get opinions across a wide swathe of player types. You’ll want people who seem to do a lot of PvP, people who only quest, people who have explored every inch of the gameworld but have never stepped foot in a raid, married women in their twenties, single men in their forties, and all types in between.

I once memed on Twitter about how ESO gave me a Summerset Isles beta invite, and then Blizzard gave me the BfA beta invite.
