This is a HUGE part of why I don't RP here (also because I have a weird shyness about making initial contact with new RP partner's).
I prefer a well thought, prose-style RP with at least some semblance of a plot. If involved in this kind of roleplay, I prefer it to be several sentences to a paragraph, and well thought out. I like detail, especially about the characters' movements and actions, or what they look like. But I'm also a detailed writer, and prefer to read detailed writing.
I do also enjoy one-to-one RP as well, mostly over instant messenger, and mostly with my best friend. We've been IM role-playing since 2006, and still play with a lot of the same characters from eight years ago! We prefer damaged characters, the kinds who have faced trauma in the past, or lost a loved one in a terrible way, or who are so overlooked no one even remembers their name! We like to bring them to our world and let them fix themselves and each other.
That sort of RP is script-style, but we put description in asterisks.
I'm really picky about who I play with and have had exactly five long-term role play partner's who have caught and held my interest. So I totally understand your plight.
