Some rpers like the more plot heavy stuff than others. This is just what I've come to accept.
There are things I have just stopped trying to include certain people on. It's waste of time and effort. They, as players, want slice of life RP despite their character's IC tradeskills falling into these specific plot roles. You need to realize that YOU, as a DM (Dungeon Master) cannot FORCE people to work with you or work into these roles. You will kill yourself.
I have HANDED people RP on silver platters and they just....stare at it before dropping it. Once I've isolated that a player is that kind of RPer I move along. I will not break my ass to loop everyone in if they're going to make me enter the damn Konami code every time just to get their participation. You wanna be there? Show up. If not then I'll write the plot and event to cater to a more closed group.
