Also something to keep in mind:
RPing is not limited to taverns and cities.
In fact... I -prefer- to RP in the world, in a group, killing stuff and adventuring. Strict Tavern RP makes me restless and kinda bored after awhile.
Small group/intimate (aka not chicki-bow-wow, but one-on-one character development focused RP) is my favorite... speckled with adventure and storylines.
So yah.. you can grind AND RP. Simultaneously, if you want.
Or... if group RP whilst grinding isn't your cuppa joe... there's bound to be virtual taverns via LS you can RP in as you OOC smack things.
All depending on what you're into.
RP is not anti-PvE... or PvP.... or dungeoning....
You CAN have your cake and eat it too.
