As an old school, paper and dice, gamer I love playing my toon In Character as I would if it were around the dinner table. Yes, I've created some back history for them and using MRP I post some information on them. I've even collaborated with other gamers on fanfic-let write ups of character interactions - much safer than attempting certain themes in game ;)

What I've not really been able to get used to is the 'RP dates' some players and guilds set up - where everyone gets together specifically to just RP. I'm pretty much always IC if I'm chatting in general with other toons - even type my troll's responses in a version of dialect. Some trade chat is OOC, raid mechanics as well - but otherwise I'm always IC so the concept of making a special event to RP is a bit odd to me.

Either way I hope RP doesn't ever really leave the game - its a big part of the fun for me.
