not everything needs to be taken so literally.
What is a ‘content creator’ ?
Sure … on the interwebz they are guys (and girls) who creating content for content sake, because it is their job (or attempt at one).

I’d say in OTT terms it is anyone posting updates on one of their projects on a fairly regular basis. Sure … my once in a decade posts are technically ‘content’ that I ‘create’, but websites needs something with a higher frequency if they want to attract more viewers/readers.

@PanzerKaputt creates a ton of content by posting about his hobby which happens to be painting all the Barons’ War minis he can get his hands on.
@sundancer likes to comment on stuff other people do within OTT, because (a) it keeps him sane and (b) it is fun to see what other people are doing.

I for one am looking forward to seeing what other “content creators” OTT wants to highlight with one of these ‘interviews’.
Picking a few of the more famous and active community members who are testing the ‘channel’ feature is as good as anything else. They got to start somewhere to see if there is something useful for people to read that is more about the folks behind the hobby and less about specific games or manufacturers.

It would be kind of cool to see interviews with the golden button winners.
Sports shows love to talk to athletes after they win things, so maybe something similar to further showcase the people doing the hobby instead of just the products ?
Of course it all depends on people wanting to be put into the spotlight to begin with … but seeing what people have to say can be quite interesting and inspiring.

Nothing is ever set in stone.
