I think this thread needs to be locked up…
To be frank, you’re only looking for confirmation bias. You’re only caring about what’s supporting what you want, rather then anything else disproving it. If all you’re going to stay is “This guy said it’s true, so it’s true”, then you’re not looking for help, or making a suggtion, you’re just repeating what others say to pass off what you believe isn’t right to you and trying to play it off.
No, it need to be locked up, because of the heinous amounts of misinformation being pushed.
I mean, you can believe the Blizzard employee that actually knows how the system works, or you can believe the streamer trying to create drama to generate clicks and views and, ultimately, ad revenue.
You already acknowledged the vast majority of these are trolls.
They are only trying to get a rise out of you.
Don’t take the bait.
While a streamer might be able to have enough viewers at a time to try to manipulate the system (misguided, but what you gonna do) anyone that’s tried to even run a raid knows how hard it is to get cooperation out of players to coordinate on a ‘task’. Rather like herding cats.
There is no need for this to continue to be belabored if you aren’t going to accept what I’m telling you about the system.
