There was a fantastic and lengthy response provided as to what ERP (Erotic Role Play) is, I think it's important to note that 18+ RP doesn't have to be ERP. While ERP is certainly a set of 18+, it doesn't constitute the entirety.

Generally, the community flags something as 18+ when it may be a good faith effort to note where content may be inappropriate for minors, or there is a desire not to interact with youth.

Dating and romance for example, even if they don't lead to ERP are likely inappropriate for an adult to engage a teen. That interaction could be 100% safe for work. Some players will explore romantic themes and not conclude with ERP.
Gambling venues are another which the community tends to consider 18+. While allowed in the ratings, the community tends to policies itself, often due to real-world considerations.
The short of it, 18+ RP is indicative of played-out scenarios where an adult morally would find it inappropriate to have a youth sitting on the other side.
