Well... no. That list just means you're a fan. It doesn't mean you're heavily committed to *fandom*. I'd admit to "fannish activities are a way of life", if you include gaming and e-gaming which traditionally have been considered a bit marginal; but "fandom" is a meta-social / meta-cultural collective entity that I consider more of a sometimes-necessary evil to get certain sorts of fannish activities done.
It's also becoming increasingly obsolete; "fandom" in the traditional sense is mired in 1960s to 1980s culture, with strong heritage dating back to so-called golden age fandom; and seems to be failing to really modernize.
