RP isn't scary at all, it's just not everyone's taste. Because they keep being mocked and are often victim of witch hunting they tend to not show themselves I guess (I'm not talking about the good old perv roleplayer everyone believes to be the norm loll). Things are different on Balmung I suppose. I've seen it on other servers (I enjoy making alts), it does happen if two people are roleplaying somewhere and someone cromes accross them, that person can stalk them or intrude and ruin the fun. For what I've seen in EU roleplayers are hiding more in order to avoid the trolls and twats, making things more difficult when it comes to find RP partners.
