While it's been mentioned to visit the Runestone and Grindstone (which personally helped me meet so many amazing characters by now), it can be wall of texty for the first few rounds of combat. Make comments about fighters you're watching, and people will comment back generally because they will defend their friend or favorite fighter.
If fighting isn't your, or your character's, style. I would suggest going to a bar/tavern night. You'd be surprised the random people you meet if you're willing to give it a shot. (Fair warning, Bar/Tavern nights can be wall-o-text also along with ALL EVENTS)
I can't speak for those FC's, maybe your characters didn't fit the FC's plot/theme and they rejected because of this. Or it could be any number of things as have been mentioned.
Quicksand... It's hit or miss at the Quicksand to be honest. If you see an Au Ra in a Yukata sitting at the bar, sit down and see if she says hi to you without prompting. ~.^ It's a rule of thumb for Aoi to greet people when they sit next to her. (Even though I've been MIA as of late doing other plot related stuff on other characters. XD)
While you're first experiences aren't to great, don't let them deter you from RP'ing if that's what you want to do. I know it can be hard at first, but as people start seeing you repeatively and get to know you, more RP will come. In a twist of FATE, I seem to get more RP when I'm not in a FC. There's a certain freedom to it, but it's not for everybody I know.
