I'm not the ideal person to be speaking about being nice in BQ (although I've rarely posted with bad intentions just maybe a bit moody) but this is once again a really common thing for people to think.
Understanding variance is really hard. I understand variance really well compared to your average person, I'd argue better than most poker players, and I still find myself overestimating/underestimating my abilities off small (relative) samples.
It has been heavily documented for those interested why people are bad at variance and a lot of it boils down to I'm winning = I've won when a 70/30 is really very common to lose. If you do that 4 times and lose which isn't exactly uncommon to a playerbase you can understand why people feel that way.
The funny thing is that poker sites in teh past literally have been rigged. Assuming that poker sites follow the regulations in place, which they are forced to in most countries, these days they literally can't lie about as they have to be able to prove everything.
