I have characters on both RP and RPPvP realms, as well as PvP and PvE.
I'd say it's the same on RP servers as the others. When people RP an inn, they RP an inn. When they raid Onyxia, they raid Onyxia. When they fight in WG, they fight in WG.
Occasionally, there are RP runs of instances, but this is not that common. And you wouldn't RP run anything for gear drops unless you're desperate. It takes too long.
But I prefer adding RP to the realms, if only because it reduces the amount of stupid names and increases the cases when a ganking is replaced by an RP experience.

RP itself is currently dying on most realms, obviously, if you find the right people you can get into some active RP guilds you can have a great time. However, not all realms are in this situation, for example on my realm, Earthen Ring, most people are tollerent of RP but not many people do it.
As where PvE is concerened, its the same thing, "Link Achievement" i think you will find that on all servers, its stupid, but its what happens

There are no 'pure' RP realms, where everyone runs around in character all the time; most RP'ing occurs among friends/guild mates. If you find a good circle of friends or a really good RP guild then your golden, if not, then most people just treat the RP realm as they would a normal one.

The best RP server I have played on is Wyrmrest Accord. Unfortunately, I have more in-game friends on Earthen Ring (and it's a joke to call Earthen Ring an RP server), so that's where I am.
WoW RP is kind of like sex or pizza. When it's good, it's really good. And when it's bad, it's really bad.
The best thing to do is find a few people that you can RP with on a semi-regular basis. All of my RP characters are Horde and I find Silvermoon to be a great place to RP. I'm not sure why that is. I guess it's because it's usually empty so there will be fewer griefers.
