It completely does not matter how many people who watch the stream play the game themselves. We have people on this forum who have self-admittedly not played in years, because life has gotten in the way. There are other people I'm sure who are still running their homebrew worlds from 3.5. We aren't WoTC, so we can't do anything about their schedule, all we control is ourselves. So, should we as members of this community tell people who haven't played a serious game in years that they are no longer "true fans" while elevating those who play multiple games weekly? How about pay to play games, should we rate them higher or lower than charity games run as after school programs for children? There is a DnD alphabet book I saw once, so if a 5 year old runs up to me with that book and says they love it, are we rating them as less of a fan than the 55 year old with disposable income who purchased only the "original setting" books? Are DMs bigger fans than players? IF you only play in one game are you less of a fan than the person who DMs three? At what point, do we have the right to analyze someone else, and decide how much of a fan they are?</blockquote>
