One of the more notable aspects of playing with people I’ve met online, either people who I connected with because they read my blog or that I met via G+, is that it’s much more common to have a table full of people that usually referee. My online games are generally at least 75% DM types, sometimes 100%.

I’m sure that changes the way people engage in a number of ways. And of course it’s easier to preference match relaxing geographic constraints, so the whole potential buyin problem is pretty much nonexistent. I just run exactly whatever it is that I want to run and people that are interested show up. No compromise needed, generally speaking. Even a lot of my in-person gaming is with turbo nerds met online.
