'Probability'-based

While the rare emote variants are thought of as having a programmed random occurrence, (e.g. random number chance) Wikipedia they are actually set to only happen at certain times—usually in the hundreds of miliseconds, or seconds for the rarer emotes. This serves to reduce the chances of multiple chatters from getting them at the same time. This is done by changing messages with a certain Unix timestamp Wikipedia ending in predetermined strings (gold with "69", platinum with "420", emerald with "6969", and diamond with "42069") to the rare variants, making it unlikely to be able to game the system (as a user would have to post the emote at the exact millisecond needed for the rare variant)—effectively creating what appears to be random chance. A few days after being added, rare variants were 10 times more rare than they are now (and were originally).

User-based

User based rare emotes date back as far as the rare variants of dggL and GIGACHAD emotes.
