I don't know about the others, but Ravenholdt is/was amazing for RP. With an officially sanctioned RP server, you also have an avenue for recourse if your RP is getting griefed or for reporting names (which I have gotten results from).
Ravenholdt -was- a great place to RP years ago. Back when PVP was a standard for conflict and virtually everyone, even people who hated the guild, followed the 'Alaskinaroth Rules of Conflict'. The shadow wars, the PVP duels, the dedication... Geez, it was just impressive. Maybe Alliance side is better but when last I checked, Ravenholdt wasn't very good anymore. It imploded after the revival of the Convocation of Silvermoon, when so many Belf houses started up. Then the major Orc clan on the server died and the Shadowtusk Clan moved to Wyrmrest Accord, where I'd already moved. After that it was a mass exodus.
The only trolls I ever encountered in the couple years I played on WrA were recently, after Moonguard and WrA were joined together. Anytime I was sitting anywhere RPing with anyone or any number of anyones, people from Moonguard undoubtedly showed up to sit on our faces and make poorly-spelled commentary.
Yet to see any in FFXIV.
