From video gaming to card games and stuff in between, if it's gaming you can probably discuss it here!

You'd have to say all 3 of those, and then you'd still be missing a ton of the other groups that also fall under "normies", even in just this specific instance. "Non-hardcore gamers" would work in this context, but the whole point is to have jargon for it as a concept ("someone who is not a member of your specialized in-group"), rather than saying the specific in-group being discussed each time. "Non-Supernatural fandom-nerds", "non-/a/ lurkers", "non-r/SocialistRA lurkers"... or just "normies".
Welcome to the internet, I guess?
