To strive to be one of the elite, to be the best, is fine. Elitism, the attitude that you are among the best and others are below you, is bad.
That's my opinion based on the notion of the direct definition.
Magellan touched on a tightrope topic as well. Helping to give new RPers constructive criticism is not something everyone is good at. It's not elitist to offer suggestions and help try to make someone a better RPer so they fit into the game's setting better. And yes, part of RP should be trying to fit into the game's setting.
