For me, it's a friendliness thing. (I think my search info on L'yhta is something along the lines of, "Adventuring mage, always LFRP! Come say hello!") I often wonder if a lot of people aren't sure if someone's an RPer, if they only do scenes that are already set up, and so on. So, I try to give key information in my search info -- character concept, that I'm always open to RP, and that you can just come up and say hi, even if you don't have a hook other than, "Hey, you look interesting." I think this is particularly important because I don't usually spend a lot of time idling in taverns, so I want people in the field to know that, yes, they can come up and say hello if they want.
L'yhta will sometimes walk up and strike up conversations with people, but she's often doing something. Unless something really stands out to her, she's just going to go about her business. Also, as Melkire points out, just like a real person, she needs a reason to engage. If there's no obvious reason, then we should probably come up with a hook -- whether it's bumping into each other (possibly literally), an interesting trinket, or so on.
