[QUOTE="Hussar, post: 5183859, member: 22779"] I wonder if this hits on something. I know I tend to kinda grind my teeth when the players won't pony up and start advancing their own goals. Could it be that the players are looking for some sort of sign or permission that they can put themselves forward like that? I mean, just about every "good player guide" out there tells players not to hog the spotlight. To be polite and not dominate the game. I wonder if players take this a bit too far and become almost afraid of "being a bad player" by trying to take a bit of control. I also wonder, thinking about the groups I have played with, if this explains a bit about why one or two players can so dominate a group. If one or two players doesn't feel bad about putting a foot forward, and the rest do, that player becomes the one eyed man in the land of the blind. Sure, there are players out there who just aren't interested in getting behind the wheel, but, I wonder if there aren't at least just as many players who are too polite to drive. Not sure how to deal with that. [/QUOTE]
