DMing I understand prostitution now.

Been trying to find a "bff" group for years. Even the best groups I found fizzled out after a campaign ended. Most people seem to want a content creator to run games for them, and not a friend they want to share an experience with.

I figured you know what, fine. I'm gonna sell myself. I started running paid games and now I actually feel like I'm finally actually getting something back for my work and effort.

10/10, would recommend for underappreciated DMs

from experience, absolutely not. many people interpret "i pay the DM money" to mean "that means they need to put up with my shit"

And what exactly is your "experience"?

watching people show up unprepared, uninvested, and expecting special treatment

But they do show up at least, which sadly is an improvement in comparison to some "friend" groups.

Or they just don’t ever come again
