Hello and welcome back!Â
As for your questions, I will try to answer them but I need to stress they're all based on my opinion so take it with a pinch of.. that. Yes. Words.Â
1. Most people roleplay in real-time at a point after the most recent MSQ events - However it's very rare for things in the MSQ to be mentioned directly. There may be hints or anecdotes to a version of events that may have been carried forth to the general public. Most people treat the WoL as an undisclosed person indeed. One of the big reason as to why the MSQ isn't mentioned a lot in RP around hubs etc is because there's a strong culture of not spoilering the MSQ to people who have not completed it. Just because they have not completed it doesn't mean they're not in the same time as everyone else and such.Â

It gives a brief run down of the jobs and their options. You can check out the lore section on this board where there are some topics and the likes that touch on things more in-depth.Â
3. Not that I know of. We have a pvp-area that has an arena type thing in it but there's no big open world pvp zone per se.Â
4. Both! FC's are good for getting some friends and connections that go for the same things you go for in RP, and linkshells can supplement with both ic and ooc connections based on interests, themes, finding rp and so on. I'd say you'd do well with not focusing on just one thing. It's a big community out there! Embrace it all.Â

A lot of open world/open to all RP come in the shape of events. Ul'dah is a general hub - for better and worse. Think of a more diverse goldshire where you may find quality roleplay and you may also well, find goldshire. Most people who are actively IC will have the RP icon turned on - A lot of guilds that cater to RP have their tags ending in -RP & finally if you right click a person you can inspect and see their search comment which is also a good way of figuring out if someone is a roleplayer. Don't be afraid to ask oocly and reach out, most people are friendly
