Having "Walkup OK/Welcome/whatever" is still very much a one-way thought. It means you are fine with someone coming up to you! ....but nowhere does it imply that you would do the same to someone else.
And I think that's part of the issue with it. We've got too many people who would like to be approached instead of approaching others. I'm guilty of it.
I don't think this in itself is necessarily an issue. I think the issue begins when the people who wallflower all the time get upset or disheartened that no one approaches them, like others are obligated to approach them even when they would not do the same (not the case with the OP here, just something I've seen rampant on the RPC and in RP communities in general). It's okay to want others to come to you, but you can't get mad when they don't.
