As someone who has only recently (since the merger) gotten involved with RP, then I can only agree with the comments made advising you to 'suck it and see' - just test the waters, you'll know soon enough whether the person you are speaking to is a RPers or not.
Or as Gami said, check out the Next Renaissance forum - particularly the 'Tourniquets and Demons' thread - that should give you an idea of who is currently involved in that scene. Don't be too shy - start small, if theres someone in those threads who has a penchant for partying, then perhaps send them a short, in-character message asking if they know where you can find the bext nightlife - those sort of things.
