I'll echo Berrod in that its a case by case thing. I'm sure a serious RPer will get serious RP no matter what race they picked.I think this is what turns people off lalafell is the stereotype of Popotos and such. I feel a lot of lalafell players arnt taken seriously and dont rp at all and so as a rper of another race you dont see many.
A shining example of Lalafell done right would be Gus Pumpkinweed.
As far as being taken seriously, you chose one of the "out" races who resemble small children. Most of the Lala rpers I've seen have actually made their characters seem a bit immature, which is fine.
So not only do you have a character resemble a small child, but then you have people playing the stereotype and pretty soon they have a universal reputation to all the other races.
There are exceptions to this, but from what I've witnessed, it would be pretty rare.
