Here are some of my ideas, partially based off of some events from other RP communities I liked:
In TOR:Â
There was a couples mixer for a rave dance. Everyone who signed up for the event was tossed into a blind date system and when you attended you picked up your date to spend the dance with. I think there may have been a music channel or vent you could access to listen to the music being played. Could do something more fantasy-like with more folksy type music.
That was a lot of fun.
In WoW and GW2:
There were a lot of walking/traveling events. Things like pilgrimages and protecting caravans. I actually find these to be a lot of fun. Plus whenever you reach the destination people can just hang out and RP.
