I just don't get ERP in WoW. The game's not built for that. Now, you could argue the game isn't really built for a lot of RP scenarios, but ERP especially so. You can't even two characters to hug or kiss each other, let alone other... uh... interactions. Take it to a MUD, MUSH, some kind of user-run virtual world, message board, whatever.

As someone whom RPs frequently both in and out of WoW, it CAN be a strong part of a character's development if done right-like the culmination of a relationship that's been in the works for a long time, not just "lol let'sdoit". A lot of people think the contrary because of "touchy" a subject it can be (or jus tthe urge to go "Giggity"), but-again-as someone who's RPed for a long time...there can be far deeper meanings. Unfortunately, many self-proclaimed "ERPers" don't have even an iota of the RP skill, common sense, or even decency to type properly that comes with that kind of a roleplay...

TL;DR: I've ERPed a couple of times, but it FAR from makes up the majority of my RP on WoW, and there's more to it than just "cybering".
