I'm another of the resident villains, so along with agreeing with the lovely and talented Xheja, I'll add a few things:
There are many types of villains under the stars. You will not want to play with all of them.
C'kayah, for instance, is a criminal. He's a smuggler and the head of an organized crime syndicate with the aim of amassing power in Ul'dah. He's very distinctly in it for the money, but that's because money can be thought of as potential power in Ul'dah (in the same way that gasoline is potential flame). By the criteria of the OP, he's not a villain, so the OP probably wouldn't want to RP with him.
Askier, when he put together large arcs, played villains with world-shattering goals: Killing thousands of people in Ul'dah; blowing up Ul'dah; etc. He would be someone the OP would want to play with, I imagine.
I've seen a lot of people who's villain RP largely revolves around specific kinds of ERP. I don't have a problem with this - some of them are fun to play with. But if they bother the OP so much, the obvious solution is to not play with them.
