I think the biggest issue with shy roleplayers is that they are afraid to actually ask anyone in case the other person/group don't find their character interesting at all.
1. If I want to take part in public RP, I'd really like to do it in the outside world and not confined to the likes of the Quicksand(not that I wouldn't mind visiting it once or twice). Though with that said, RP'ing in a place with lots of regular, non-RPers around would make me very nervous and self-conscious, like the markets for example ;
2. People who weave ERP into their stories don't bother me in the slightest. People who ERP for the sole purpose of ERP'ing do. So with that in mind, seeing what seems to be a large increase of those people standing around in the Quicksand - where I sometimes like to idle to look out for other RP'ers - makes me very sad. It's always going to be there and whatever, that's fine... but I just dislike how it's always consistently in my face and even outnumbering actual RPers on certain occasions. Honestly, I don't think I'll feel comfortable RP'ing there in the future for whenever I get around to playing that miqo'te scene I've had pending since months before Heavensward(oh my God, someone help me).
