Greetings Kouhai Raichu, welcome to the RPC.
I hope you've had the chance to meet plenty of interesting people on Gilgamesh already, Thaliak knows theres a lot to see and do out there but hopefully you've been able to lurk around and see a few people if nothing else. Nice to see another Forum roleplayer making the jump into the MMO community, plenty of us used Gaia [including myself] or another forum site at one point or another. Thankfully if you'd like a mixture of in game and out there is some RP that occurs on the forums. [In both long form and short.]
Anyways, i've got some links i'd like to share, maybe you'll stumble on something you over looked.

This RP Handbook provided by Eva is an amazing source of knowledge on a variety of styles and situations. Maybe you'd like to see a different way of approaching a scenario, or maybe you'd like to hear about some Eorzea specific mechanics that you might not be sure how to incorporate into your character, This is a great place to start.
If you'd like to know a bit more about the community I highly suggest jumping into the forums like you mentioned, or taking a look at the linkshell hall and messaging a few people to ask them more about ther groups after reading the introduction posts.
I do have one suggestion for a linkshell on Gilgamesh, an OOC hub for roleplayers to connect named "Coalition"

Just a good chance to get to hear people and see what the community might be up to. Chat a bit, make a few connections, come along on a lalafell parade.
Hope that helps you get a sense of whats out there. Best of luck out in Eorzea
