I am going to echo what C said (never gonna be Setoh!), that I really prefer RP that comes about naturally. That's not to say that I do not enjoy plotlines, which I do enjoy (and which I appreciate even beyond my enjoyment for all of the effort, work, and creative energy they require), but if it feels like the story is already developed and we are only writing in the dialogue, I tend to lose interest.
I also don't care much for real "dark" RP - so often it feels like forced drama meant to make itself worthy of the title; something more akin to a depressed soap opera. It just ends up feeling forced and trite. It has its place: life is full of darkness and negative things, but I prefer to find that in stories and plots that did not set out just to achieve that.
Slice-of-Life is my bread and butter. Its what I do to pass time and just have fun, its what I do to meet people, and to try to make our RP community a more enjoyable, more immersive, and more satisfying place to play. Its not the end-all-of-end-alls, but I don't think that you can have a well-rounded, believable character without it. And, in terms of meeting people, I still feel like it is just the best.
