I know I'm STUPENDOUSLY late to the party on this one, but I figured I'd toss in my two gil here...
Basically, the events calendar on this very site is a great way to put yourself out there. Being a social butterfly at a variety of events is a good way to see and--especially--be seen. That's my best possible suggestion, since those sorts of things foster the abolition of cliqueing.
Unfortunately, I have not played any MMO ever that did NOT see this behaviour. I think it's a defense mechanism in a non-designated RP server to have people create their own little self-sealed groups.
Or people are just a-holes.
I'll parrot the advice to not give up, though. Please don't be discouraged...there are truly, genuinely awesome and inclusive roleplayers in this game and this forum.
