Truth hurts, doesn't it. The average game out there IS just a bunch of crappy weapon mods. Take the entire Starsiege: Tribes series for instance. The mod community was built around a scripting engine the game featured. Nothing but "double warhammer shotgun flameball thrower plasma bomb launcher" weapon mods were created.
There are several different examples of why scripting languages usually lead to crappy weapon mods. Too many to list.
