I, personally, am of the mind that holding events like this (in a housing district) does not encourage cliquish, exclusive behaviors. I've personally had great experiences joining in on group RP that has been removed from a city and put into a housing area. I've met an eclectic bunch of players/characters from many different companies and have made connections that will help further my own stories.

The quicksand can become super crowded. One can -easily- get lost in a sea of text as a group next to your own RPs. Some people like that, hell I do it all the time in the Wench, on the other hand, others tend to shy away from it and prefer to go to a less populated, but just as accommodating an area, like a personal house. many have just as much ability to become crowded Quicksand taverns ... but at least we have the option of new scenery. The city states are large. Why wouldn't they have more than a couple of taverns to crawl through? Personal lots make this a viable reality.
I think most people know what to expect when they do a tavern RP. They don't find it monotonous or trite they find it is an exciting opportunity to make connections and further the reach of their characters.Â
New players wandering through the towns will find RP. It would be nice to see more RP outside the cities and I know many people, myself included, that stay in character while moving from hub to hub. In my experience, though, people (even if their search info calls out for RP) who are out to level and are traversing from quest to quest are wanting to do just that. They're not interested in stopping for a random chat at that moment.Â
Outside of FCs and LSs I'm not certain what type of RP is expected to be found in the world that is more than "tavern style" without a little legwork on the part of the searcher.
Everyone has their own time and place. Eventually the connection will be made, I think. Â
