Thank you so much for getting back to me! I was so worried my post sounded a little bitter, but I didn't know how else to word it.
I've tried games based in certain fandoms, and games based on that sentient island and god-like figure thing. The most unique setting I had was a Warehouse 13 setting where and artifact was causing dimensional travel.
The problem is that it's just me and my co-mod. We plug the game as much as we can, but we mainly play in HP games because we'd rather mod the panfandom games than play in them, so the players we've become friends with are hesitant to try panfandom. You think we should just bite the bullet and play in panfandoms to make the friends that would help us in our games?
