Bunch of reasons, but mainly 6 years with one league is a long time to stick with one thing!

Plus I think the conversion from 6.5 to 2007 hurt a little, since the new engine took the game away from the more comfortable (dare I say, predictable) world of 6.5 for many owners. We all enjoyed the history we built, but in the end being able to create a league we were all super excited about and doing it from scratch in 2007 won out.
Plus I think with fictional leagues (as the other thread has alluded to), you really had to stand out with some unique features to attract and keep owners and I think (hope) we did that here... the JOBL, as fun/stable/long running as it was, wasn't too unique. That made it hard to attract good owners.
