I have the same inclination that of all the existent ljs a large portion than seems to be the zeitgeist were created by fans--I mean think about sockpuppets and joke journals and coms and just randomosity that fans create and forget about. Over the years, I don't know how many journals I've made, 30? 40? And I'm just one person, and not even a rpger or someone who actively sockpuppets. Idk, this is just a feeling I have about those supposed 13 million journals. Who knows, maybe everyone in Moscow is an active ljer!
