I don't feel that it's necessarily bad to tag your own RP as light, medium, or heavy, but it's always going to be subjective to other peoples' definitions of what each of those labels means, exactly. As long as they're viewed as very broad, loose descriptions of your desired RP involvement, I think they'll remain fine, too.
One of the more ridiculous things that happened to me in-game, recently, was a sudden and unexpected PM from someone that wanted to dispute the definition of "heavy RP," my free company, my free company's story arc, and the characters in the FC, and whether or not they could actually fit that definition. It was obnoxious, to say the least, but fairly telling of how badly people want to pare down a lot of criteria and experience into a single label.
What is boring, what isn't, and what is "too much" compared to what's "just enough" is always going to be subjective to individuals and groups. If the light/medium/heavy tags are getting you down, I find the best practice to be creating some brief bullet points of why RP is important to you. Provide some examples if you wish, and stick it somewhere that's accessible when you need it (I find the RPC character wikis to be a good place for this!)
