How many people have to say "My ally list is a literal ghost town" before it becomes a step above anecdotal?

It will basically never be enough, because there will always be millions of people who are perfectly fine and just not saying anything. The overwhelming majority of people playing don't use forums, Reddit or Discord. You're in the "hardcore" bubble where people are quick to seize on every flaw and loudly announce their dissatisfaction, but for every person like that, there are hundreds that are just screwing around on their phone during their poop break at work, then going on with their lives.

I've been expressing this belief for a long time. Human nature tells us to speak up loadly when we are not happy abouy something, however the flip side is that when we are content and happy we tend to not want to rock the boat so we stay quite.

How many people here have complained about food at a restaurant and will make sure the server, manager, etc.. know you are unhappy. Now how many people have gone out of their way to complement those same people when you are happy with your meal? Sure you tell whoever asks you that it was good but who hunts down a manager to tell them how great your experience was? Not many people do that.
