Ah, thanks for the info! :D I'm admittedly a bit of an outsider to slash fandom (I dabble in it, and have friends in it, but I'm not really part of it) but that had been my general impression; I get the feeling that there are quite a lot of people for whom fandom itself is their fandom -- not that they aren't into the individual shows and characters that they fan on, but they tend to move on regularly. (I actually used to be much more that way, as far as the moving on, though I tended to bounce through microfandoms rather than hitting the big ones -- it's really unusual for me to either fan on a show as big as SGA, or to have stuck in one fandom as long as I have with it -- but anyway, I can understand the moving impulse even if I don't seem to have it anymore.)
And it does make sense to me that it would be uncomfortable for someone who's used to moving regularly (mobile fans, I like that :D ) to get stuck in one place, just as monofannish people don't like to be moved.
