@LeviKornelsen Shrug from me; like sex work, there's nothing wrong with paid DMing, but I'd rather be in a relationship with the DM/GM and other players where we were friends and where things ran on a gift economy, DMing and playing alike.
Written having just finished a use-once writing project for a larp con, the kind of work (litform, connection/plot building won't be reused, most players aren't close) where IF it were a stand alone game, the writers/GMs profiting would be very appropriate.
