Re: What killed crossover fandoms (ie. Superwholock)?

[fishnchips]

Dashcon wasn't a nearly big enough event to "kill" some very popular fandom mashups, imo.
Personally, I think these things collapsed for several reasons. Once the whole "omg let's all fock to this new thing it's awesome" sense had worn off, a lot of people got bored with it. Then there's people moving on to new fandoms - and even if it's just partially (like for example moving on from Supernatural but not Sherlock), it still kills the whole mashup thing. Given the fact that a lot of the fandoms involved in those mashups where classic cases of "migratory (slash) fandoms" and in the case of Doctor Who, there tends to be a big divide between Doctor incarnation preferences, this probably happened a lot.

And one of the main reasons is probably that each one of those fandoms usually involved in the huge crossovers are very drama- and lately, discourse/wank-prone fandoms. So things probably imploded due to infighting and calling each other out and accusing each other of being problematic in various ways.
