Because it's just so easy to do.

Why does this make me think of GP? Oh, right, because a GM-controlled character is acting like a god.
I know I snark GP a great deal, and it was two years ago (or more) now that it was at its height, but I keep running into the same people time and time again, and not a one of them has ever admitted there was a problem. In fact, I was told not that long ago that I was the problem because I gave up too soon, you know after only screaming at them until I was blue in the face. And now, there's a new guild game with Saanjun as the co-head GM. The other night he claimed he had learned a great deal about what not to do in a guild campaign. He said GM-controlled PCs were a bad idea, but just when I thought I could pat him on the head and give him a cookie, he added, "But Quavax was a good character!"
Pardon me while I laugh. I may desire to join a new campaign, but I think I will stay far, far away from this one, and I will continue to snark those involved in GP and other campaigns who go around with their noses in the air as though their shit doesn't stink the same as mine, if not worse.

But yeeeaaahhhh not going there again.
Or going to RP-ville in general, really. Except for blowing some giant robots up.
