Just because it was deliberately created (which is what 'contrived' means) doesn't mean it wasn't sincere.

I was being sarcastic, it doesn't seem contrived at all. If it's made to seem spontaneous, then it's spontaneous. A more contrived (and better) thing to do would be to have people sign some kind of petition, I'm sure there would be lots of names.
Bold mine - I do not think you know what that word means.

We’ll add it to the list of words that mean whatever Ahri wants them to mean at any given moment.

I think it's no worse than any other ideas you've had.

Ok, so you think it's a good idea. And what if I told you there is actually a petition on the first page of this thread? Would you sign it?

I think every word in the English lexicon means “waaaaa, I need attention” to Ahri.

That is absolutely not what I said.
No, I wouldn’t. As a general thing, petitions are pointless gestures.

Right, and I'm sure you think voting is pointless too. (it isn't, it matters)

Do I really need to explain to you the difference between voting and signing a petition?
