I understand wanting to be inclusive and inviting to other RPers but it's just unrealistic that people would jump into strangers' conversations, and RPers seem to do that all the time. It's an admittedly very mild case of metagaming (realistically, the people talking in the street wouldn't stand out at all) but it still bugs me.
Then, please, tell me how you expect people to start up RP with you? Because all you're doing is isolating yourself from the community and potential RP. No one can tell whether or not you're just standing around afk or chatting OOCly, or if you're RPing. And I certainly wouldn't want to engage in RP with someone who only wants to do it in /p. I want RP public and open, and your own reluctance to start up conversations with people in public spaces does not mean it's some kind of strange thing.
