I will say first, I did not read the rest of the posts. But I have an answer to the question at hand!
It isn't that playing a good guy is boring. I love playing the good guy personally because the good guy has many trials to overcome and most of all have many personal challenges to overcome with each enemy they face.
It isn't that it is boring at all but more so it is more <b>challenging</b>.
A bad guy or villain is actually quite simple to play. You do things for your own good. For power or control. This can also extend to the "neutral" characters who truly only are out for self gain but can be seen as villains because it could affect a community negatively as a whole.
A good guy must continue to remain true to themselves and their morals. Where it would be so simple to kill the opposition, someone who is Good would not as they would show mercy. They would give them a second, third, or even fourth chance. They must continue to keep to the moral compass or even overcome their own weaknesses to continue to do for the greater good. This is by all means, much more difficult to achieve that if you play a villain.
Thus, there is a harder time to keep to a characters morals because there is more opposition. You'll find more villains in an RP world than you will heroes.
