I want to echo the excellent advice Sastra gave and add this point: if you want to get RP with a broody anti-social character, it's best to not be a broody anti-social player. What I mean is I've seen people create that sort of character and then just stand around looking gloomy while wondering why no one's RPing with them. There are dark, broody anti-social people in the world, and if you want to play one, then fine! But talk to people OOCly and try to set up RP that way. Be cheerful with them. Be constructive. Try to work out ways that your dark and broody anti-social character can add to other people's RP. Join one of the linkshells that are set up for OOCly organizing and discussing RP. And when you're talking about what your character would do, try not to focus on the "no's". Instead of saying "No, sorry, my character wouldn't be caught dead in that tavern, I can't be part of that RP", say "Well, my character doesn't hang out in taverns, but we can say he just arrived in town after a long journey and he's in there just to get a meal". Instead of just being that guy sitting in a corner, arrange to have pick-pocketed some other character in the RP (or they pick-pocketed you), with the victim recognizing the thief.
In short, be out there as a player and help enable other people's RP. That's the best thing you can do, really.
