DMing is a service provided to the players, which is usually done for mutual enjoyment. If the DM feels that his skills are superior and has no attachment to the players, it makes a level of sense, since the DM is doing a lot of work setting up each adventure, not to mention the cost of books they need. As a player, however, I would expect a level of quality from a DM I'm paying, and I've found few DMs worth it. As a DM, even though I feel my skill would be worth it, I wouldn't want to do it because it changes the game from a labor of love into "work." I have charged in the past (non-D&D) where we collected $1 per player each session, but the money was used to buy books, dice, etc., not for my personal use.</p></blockquote><p></p>
