Oh, there's plenty of us who lead both "lifestyles" in-game, so to speak. I know with me, I plan on both running my heavy RP linkshell and remaining a member of my endgame linkshell/free company from 1.0.
Some of us are more into endgame and other game related content than others, of course. I know with me it's more of a 60/40 split (Maybe, just maybe a 50/50 split) leaning more towards endgame than roleplaying. I take great strides to keep the two separate, however. I usually just did endgame with close friends, some of which also roleplayed. Most didn't.
They are simply two experiences I preferred to keep separate. When I was with my endgame linkshell, RP wasn't something that ever came up. When it came to hanging on mumble with the linkshell, it was just a bunch of us friends playing the game itself, like anyone else.
Of course, if you're the kind of person who would prefer to have both roleplay and endgame mixed, there's probably going to be shells that exist for that purpose as well.
But I get where you're coming from. Just because I'm not 100% in-character all the time doesn't mean I take my roleplay any less seriously. When I am in character, I get in-character. I roleplay "heavily" and aim for serious character development and experiences. You can still be a heavy roleplayer and not roleplay all the time. To me, heavy implies the amount of commitment you have to being in-character when you actually are in-character, not the amount of overall time you spend in-character.
Other people will see it differently, of course.
