Not at all. The drop rate was horrible before the last update. 10 minutes I got far less than before on three separate days. I already stated it was harder to judge since I can't look into the code to see what it is.

However, I tried it recently since I had the time to check amd each time I got a better average.

Also I don't see the point in your behavior which is passive aggressive and condescending. This isn't a race, there isn't a prize to win whatever notion you have for an Internet argument.

I am just trying to look at all sides various people have brought up. I also brought some of my personal experience with the mob drops. So while I have certain advantages over others I was trying to be as fair about it as possible.

Looking at comments from another site similar findings were had and it looks like it was done around two or so weeks ago.

Soooo, if you roll a die 12 times one day, and get a one three times, and then roll it the next day and get a one five times, you would conclude comeone had changed the die?

What nonsense. Statistically significant evidence that the drop rate changed would take more than your casual remembrances. It takes methodical recording of kills and drops, and lots of kills, to have any evidence worth presenting.

Stop pretending you understand statistics and how random processes work. You obviously don't, but I do, as demonstrated in this old thread:

That's data, not anecdote: you need to learn the difference.

And I don't see the point of you stubbornly sticking to a position that looks more and more false with each new data point. If you can't recognize your mistakes and own up to them, I think you have a dim future.
