sorta sounds to me like I would never actually get a chance to do what I wanted to with my characters.

Oh, that reminds me of something I did on my own RP wiki (prior to it dying, I mean.) I had one person be the 'GM', as you said, except they ALSO had a character. The character actually ended up fighting the environment alot and it ended up pretty much how you said, other than the GM having a character. I personally prefer that because otherwise you never get real control of your characters, as you would only be doing campaigns that the GM made the RP for. For instance, I was trying to get my factions to attack the ghost stars, and there were several environmental enemies- which I would be fighting myself. I understand, theres the obvious danger of the GM being biased, but my personal opinion is that its better for there to be a few bad RP's and some excellent ones, than for them all to be merely 'good'.
