I agree 100% with that statement. I was once in a mod team for Battlefield 2... At first I created only models for for the mod and left the skinning to other team members. Eventually I begin unwrapping and skinning the models too, also I began skinning other team members models and it just became so tedious that it actually felt like work..
While I was creating my own models for the mod I was happy as could be, pumping out content all the time.. As I was drawn in to take up some of the skinning slack.. I was unwrapping models created by multiple people, and I must admit some of the team members models were "sloppy" and a sloppy model makes it that much harder to unwrap and texture it. It got to the point that I hated finishing a task because the next would be just as bad if not worse. I was not alone as many of the members started vanishing, as I did eventually..
Moral of the story is exactly the point you made Jagr.
