While I agree that some posts and posters of the "you shouldn't RP this" go far and beyond, I believe that for the most part people are quite polite and that they are only giving a forewarning for caution.
It sounds like you disagree so my question is, what do you believe people should do? I do not believe that everyone should and need to RP with everyone. I believe that if you do dislike it and someone comes up to you asking what the response may be like that you should express it. If everyone is just fine with the reactions and are happy to RP X Y and Z in their own group, I believe everyone else should quietly grumble that they do not like it and will not engage and then -stop-.
If a new roleplayer comes with something most people will not want to roleplay with, what is your suggestion? Should we then be silent and watch as possible other threads are made about "why won't someone roleplay with me?" Or should we say, "Here's some things in the game I believe can support your idea. Not everyone will like it but I'm sure there will be someone who does and some people may not roleplay it. If you are fine with this, go for it!" At least then, they won't be without a clue.
If your response is that everyone should welcome that idea and roleplay with it, I vehemently disagree with you.
Edit:
Also your idea of PVEr vs RPer is, in my opinion, ridiculous. Most of shout is a trollfest shitstorm. Through all that, I raided through 2.55, beating T13 before it was unlocked into Duty Finder. For my early raiding, I raided with a great group of people in an RP FC (to T7). After that I raided almost exclusively with just PVE FCs and groups. None of them gave a shit's arse about RPers.
