[QUOTE="Minigiant, post: 9032566, member: 63508"] You're not using the mathematical logic here though. There are more Boomers than Gen Xers. So if Boomer still exist and are prominent on FB and still are very visible on other Social Media, if Xers are at 19% then Boomers shouldn't be less than 1%. The idea that "people get older and leave due to lack of time" doesn't make sense either as the biggest group in the survey is Millenials and they are mostly in their 30 and early 40s. Well old enough to be grown adults with lack of time to pursue hobbies. So either the numbers are off, the survey is in a space Boomers don't frequent, or the classification of what WOTC is calling D&D is something Boomers would not call D&D (aka 5e). WOTC's actual actions have made it clear that they will sell to people who don't play 5e. But if the people tried 5e and went back to their old game, WOTC doesn't want to sacrifice the game to get them back anymore. Thet tried appealing to Boomers at the start of 5e and as the survey shows... the Boomers mostly didn't stay because they already had an edition that does everything they wanted. [/QUOTE]
