This is an excellent point. I've encountered a lot of role-players in FFXIV who appear very reluctant to initiate contact when it comes to role-play. This, unfortunately, also extends to them maintaining contact once an initial introduction has been made.
Obviously it's a two way thing but I'd be lying if I said my friends list didn't have more than a few role-players on it who haven't messaged me again after adding me. Sometimes this is understandable due to the real world/other responsibilities getting in the way but other times it feels like people are just too scared to put themselves out there and say 'hey, up for some role-play today?'
