Conventional thing-having-fans-type-business wisdom is to Engage With The Fans but this is wrong and encourages obsession and parasocial relationships, to ensure the longevity of your business and your own mental health you should instead identify your biggest fans and ask them hey have you ever played Undertale, you should try it, it's brilliant

This is my confession, back in 2008 I was introduced to an informal group of exhausted small-time webcomic/fiction/game producers who all had 999 normal fans and one scary fan. We shared stories about our scaryfans and consoled and comforted one another long into the night. We hatched a plan together, and on April 1st 2009 we all went into our respective fan forums and asked if they'd ever heard of MS Paint Adventures, hey scaryfan you'd probably dig this,
