"you are also making the assumption that "the resolution they play games" is the same as "the resolution they browse the web"."

I may have no way of proving it, but I'm certain the majority of gamers don't bother to change their resolution between gaming and browsing. In fact, those who do are probably in the "oversized monitor and apparently 'selfish' wikia editting." Only because it doesn't really make much of a difference unless you have a hefty maximum res. I think that's is a very logical assumption. If you already have an average/slightly above average/lowish res like the majority of internet users, why bother toggling it?
