Howdy, Ranor! Welcome to the forum!
First of all, allow me to dismiss your concerns of elitism. Whilst I cannot speak for all members of the community, the actual game is nothing like reddit. Of course, some people have a dislike for World of Warcraft (myself included), nut the majority will not shove it down your throat or attempt to "convert" you.
 We're a friendly bunch like that. Also, feel free to ask away! We don't bite.
Secondly, you'd be amazed at just how many Miqo'te exist which -aren't- the cute, flimsy kitty people. Not to say you should roleplay that type of character to stand out, I would shoot you, but the Miqo'te community as a whole are very mature. Either way, you won't be crucified for playing one like certain forums suggest.
As for your timezone issues, this may come as a pleasant shock to you but I, too, am an EU player. Balmung certainly (not sure about Gilgamesh) has players and roleplayer from all timezones, so you'll never be short of company. As a bonus, I'm a bit of a night owl and am up when the US players are, but even if you're not, there's still many others ready and willing.
I hope I've managed to answer all your worries, and look forward to seeing you in-game! Must hook up for some RP if you're ever in Limsa. Once again, welcome to the forum!!
