As I have taken an RP sabbatical if you will and don't know what the current RP situation is, I will say what I -think- may happen.
Some people are so inundated with very chatty Linkshells that though you may not have seen the chat as fast-scrolling theirs may be. I've had this same thing happen to me. Outside of RP. try to contact someone and not get a response past 30min later.
Another factor may just be tunnel visioning. Sometimes it's very easy to pay attention to the current group or persons that one is interacting with that they don't pay attention to other people emoting or directing conversation at them. (they may be only checking what people they know may be saying etc.)
Alt+tabbing is very real so unless they already have an idea that you may have said something to them (tunnel visioning) they may not notice it either.
