We do a lot of small RP around the Ul'dah area, and are happy to help new people make connections. Poke me or Sukaretto if you ever are bored and want to make friends.
I definitely get the pickup rp issues though. Lately my character has been selling cookies for charity (and by charity I mean herself), just so she has a reason to bug strangers. Having a little mission every time you go to the QS helps.
