With more than 40 000 members (without counting those who come here and who are not members) this website might be more important than you think.

6 billion ...like it would matters.

No they don't, and even less that do have computers play naval sims. Hence you proved my point, and Platapus point.

Wrong sample. We don't care about the 6 billion people out there, we care about those that play subsims and specifically those that play the SH franchise.
And you can bet your *** that the people on subsim represent a non negligeable fraction of the Silent Hunter player base.

And SubSim it's self represents a significant part of the genre's journalism.
