I'm not a new RPer, I've been at this for 5 months. 5 months of having trouble not only asking people if they want to RP but also to find some that's "free". Free, being that the RP is open and not a closed thing that's only for "my clique".Â
1. Have I gone up to people and asked? Yes! I've burned up a massive amount of courage to do so (I'm actually terrified of people due to a mental issue) and I've always been shot down. Now admittedly I don't ask often mostly because, as I've said before, I'm scared of people. Yes, I am scared of YOU. Don't know why, but my mental issues pushes my brain to be afraid of people and OOC conversations. IC I'm not and it's all good.
2. Have I asked to join a particular event or have I been to an event? Yes! I've gone to quite a few events that my character would go to and all of them have resulted in me shying away in a corner after trying to make a greeting response to a few people and either being ignored (I'd like to think it's just the scrolling chat log) or be told that they're not interested and that talking to two people is too much.
3. Have I tried scheduling RP with other people? Yes! They never logged and I stood there for a hour waiting. It's happened more than once and sadly I kinda gave up afterwards due to trust issues (plus afraaaaaid).
Conclusion, I suck at finding RP. I wish people would help me sometimes but even asking for help is a hard thing to do. As a result I'm not really RPing until Heavensward (my character is technically dead) and even then I'm spending the first few days I can get on due to server issues grinding AST.
