We're at an all-you-can-eat RP buffet and can pick and choose who we want to rp with, when, and about what. This can have the apparent effect of shutting many others out.
In my experience, I've found that it's always feast or famine. I'm either over-booked or it feels like an rp desert. T_T lol. And of course, when I am free and want to rp with people, they are offline or busy or wanting to just grind content instead. XD
I like rp events cause I can have a casual (or less than casual) conversation with someone while having something to interact with (wait staff, menu, drinking, etc). For me at least, this relieves a lot of the stress that just one on one rp can bring.
Similar to Kilieit, I have a chronic illness. In my case, I actually can't plan rp as well cause I never know if I'll be well enough to run a scene with people. Events, like I mentioned, help ease some of the work load, so I can talk as much or as little as I'm able to.
I am also not keen on the vague question of "Anyone wanna RP?" For all I know, you're an amal'jaa airship pirate and I may not need amal'jaa, airships, or piracy in my characters' lives right then. Or more to the point, I don't want to sit with a person who asks this and then expects me to entertain them for a couple hours without any commonality I can use. :/
