I wish that a certain demographic of fans were capable of looking at fanfic writing without feeling like they were obligated to ship. You don't have to do shipping to be a fanfic writer. I think the loss of big fanhubs have contributed to that though. There is nowhere really to gether and bounce ideas around, nor anyone organizing fan writing contests, so it all just spirals inwards.

People who were only in fanfic for the ships have always been a thing. They were a thing when fic was passed around in paper zines, they were a thing in the usenet era, they were a thing when webrings were the new hotness, they were a thing on LiveJournal. The mass decentralization of fandom might make them more obvious to people who skew towards the gen side of things because they're not off in their own communities revolving around their ships any more, but shipping has been the primary reason a lot of people have engaged with fandom in general and fanfic in particular pretty much since modern fandom's inception.
