I'd of course be put off if I was rudely rebuffed for trying to participate in the scene, but given that I ask or try to read the mood before approaching, this isn't a problem I encounter, save for in literally one instance, and it had nothing to do with their availability or privacy.
I feel the same way for the most part. Sometimes it's nice to just watch other people's RP go by. Especially if it involves people I'm thinking about RPing with. It's like getting a trial period to see if my characters would mesh with theirs and to also think of potential hooks. The same could be said in regards to people's forum posts as well.
