From the page on Storytelling:

[quote="Wikipedia"'']In traditional role-playing games, storytelling is done by the person who controls the environment and the non playing fictional characters, and moves the story elements along for the players as they interact with the storyteller. The game is advanced by mainly verbal interactions, with dice roll determining random events in the fictional universe, where the players interact with each other and the storyteller.

These oral based role-playing games were very popular in the 1990s among circles of youth in many countries before computer and console-based online MMORPG's took their place. [/quote]

Because the other players CLEARLY don't contribute at all to a cooperative narrative, and only the DM can make up the story. Because all stories should be like this.
