Interesting topic.
It is my - completely unscientific - impression, that RPing has worn off with time. Perhaps ppl got fed up with it or perhaps it's just because the Stars! community has shrunk and the wildest weirdoes and hotheads have moved on to something else?
In any case, I haven't seen any real RPing the last couple of years. More like ppl will crack a joke or come with a sarcastic remark in a third person way, but I wouldn't call that RPing.
On my own part, I rarely RP systematically. I did it in one game where I had almost every turn some comment to everyone of what was going on inb my empire. It was ia. because I was trying to awaken a sleepy game where the vast majority did nothing at all to stop a runaway leader.
I was in a low ranking position (like 5 or 6 out of 10) so my public appeals and press announcements earned me the full attention of #1 who attacked while #2 and 3 twiddled their thumbs. Fortunately this gave me the opportunity to broadcast even more propaganda about my big victories (mostly true - I managed to pull off some very low odds victories, ia. in defense of my HW).
Eventually I needed a diplomatic shift at some point where some players had almost been convinced to join me. I 'killed' the primary character I had used to make room for a new one with another style. That helped, I think.
During all this time, noone really picked up my RPing, but OTOH noone complained either (I sometimes see hosts ban messages to everyone. Why? You can just click past).
In case anyone of you happened to be in that game, it was the 'Late Birds' aka 'Birds' race - a HP SS going against a -f HG SD (suicide anyone?
