You're misunderstanding how bnet works. Your description is perfectly normal behaviour. Also you couldn't possibly get "high gold" out of placements, you get placed with 0pts.

You could get placed in a division that's not yet full. I've gotten placed in a new division that only had a few spots (which quickly got filled up, mind you).
Obviously, it doesn't mean much to say you're Top 8 when there's only 8 people in your division, but I think it's quite obvious that the first few people who play in the new season will get placed in a division and have a gold star icon until other people fill up their division.
But barring these exceptions, I agree with you about how you're placed in a league with zero points, not in a league with the purposeful intention by the MMR system to put you at low, middle, or high. It's just however full the division happens to be.
