The problem with that is not every game has more than one person actively running plots. Smaller games especially, even if they have more than one mod, often have only one plot runner. Yes, you shouldn't give yourself all the good plot developments (and should probably take fewer than the rest of the players, to avoid the appearance of plot-hogging), but having to never\ participate in plot just because no one else ever runs them is equally unfair.
Nah, that's way less unfair. If you want a fanfic where everyone exists just for your characters, then write a goddamn fanfic. Games aren't there just to make mod characters the center of attention, sorry. Why not participate in player plots?
Oh, right. Those don't give your character that center of attention, and you'd actually have to work with players. The horror.
why do you think it's either center of attention or not participating at all? there's nothing wrong with a mod wanting to participate like twenty other players may be doing as long as they don't infomod or anything
