A similar thing sometimes happens when WoW gamers encounter or talk about powerleveling in WoW. Stories about negative experiences with roleplayers tend to travel faster than positive ones, and they create an impression the roleplayers are crazy fanatics even when actually only a few of them are. If they don't already know a roleplayer when they hear such a story, their impression will get fixed that way too. Some people relish the irony when a hardcore raider or PvPer says that roleplayers are weird, because so many people outside of the WoW community think powerleveling are weird and don't really give them powerleveling prove they are not either. It's never so simple, of course, and so much depends on the individual's strengths and weaknesses.

So I believe that when people say "I'm not a roleplayer but I have all these neat RP ideas," what they're really saying is that they have a lot of roleplaying potential but they haven't yet received the kind of support they would need to actually set their potential free.

Whatever's going on, the only solution is more courage and encouragement on both sides. Players with a bit of powerleveling potential in them have to see the value of expressing that potential, and possibly overcome some obstacles in trying to find other roleplayers. Established roleplayers, on the other hand, need to work hard to powerleveling and include newcomers, even when doing so might not be easy.
