Not only because in many ways it is this game's version of Goldshire (though there are shining gems to be found amongst the muck) but because it didn't really make sense for my character to go there.To compare the Quick Sand to Goldshire is horribly misleading. Â Yes, there is that there. Â But its a quiet background matter amidst what is otherwise a mostly pleasant and active RP scene. Â Not liking the place (perfectly understandable) doesn't mean that it should be made to seem worse than it is. Â It is not a Goldshire with shining gems among muck, it is a fun and energetic place with public RP-a-plenty and some undeniable background unsavoriness that is, fortunately, not difficult too ignore.

The QS should not be "infamous" in any sense of the word.
For the OP: Finding RP, like making friends, is challenging. Sometimes its just circumstantial. Â All you can do is keep trying. Â There is more RP going on around here than in any other game or environment I have ever seen before, and while that really doesn't make it any easier to tap into, it does give reason for hope that persistence can pay off.
I would not advise large events as a good place to meet people (though I have met quite a few people at social events, such as balls). Â Just continue to keep you eye out for public RP like you have been, and maybe try to find some LSes that might lead you that way.
