Unfortunately it's not as simple as that. Nothing worse than seeing a guy and saying

"Christ, hot day isn't it? Driving these Brahmin to Vault City is no easy work to make a living. Say... If I give you a few bucks your more than welcome to come along. I'm not saying it will be easy, but I could use the help."

and them turning around and saying

"STFU NooB11" *Burst fire*

I'm a roleplayer, so maybe we could start a topic, get a few people together and after the wipe have some jolly old times?

1)There are more project?
There were some attempts to make a RP in fonline. For example WWP project was kinda successful imho. It still exists but without more people involved it will never be as famous as in the times of Redding. There are also some smaller projects like Children of the Cathedral (there are maybe more but I don't know them all).
2)If yes,what are they and how can I enter?
I think every person who likes RP is welcome. I don't know about any special requierements. The best thing you can do is joining an IRC channel of the project you want to join and talk to its members.

To be honest why not both? Every now and again these roleplay topics pop up and they get a fair few views so there is definitely a demand for it.

If we get a few people together then after the wipe we could meet up.

I like the Idea of RP in this game. It sounds like it would add an interesting aspect to an already interesting world this game takes place in. I would give it a try myself, but I mostly hang out around the hub, and its hard to do it when all the other person is asking for is 10 brahmin hide so he can make his tent.

- Others, protecting the wasteland agains't human being.

The thing with roleplay, is that it doesnt have to be a project, just stick to your character's personnality and act like he would, *projects* can be done *in character*.

The key to roleplay, is not to get out of character, I saw too many so called roleplay projects that only meant chatting and beign nice to one another, not even playing another personnaly then there own. Just forget about yourself!

This.

We don't need to be a faction or a Tribal society. If we get a few people together and agree when to meet up every so often we could have a real blast.

The only problem about roleplaying all the time is the fact you do get the trolls who want to destroy it for you. Also sometimes you do need to just ask for 10 Brahmin hides. Unfortunately without a dedicated server Pure Roleplay will never really be an option. Although I do hear of another FOnline called 2077 which sounds promising (in theory)

I'm newcomer here too. Once I joined the server for the first time I got frustrated a bit, since I expected that this mod is RP-based. I was wrong.

In my opinion this kind of plot could be used for RP than freeroaming instead.

Well... that's too bad that I got a bit disappointed about the mod. However, lets hope that this will change in future (probably, a new RP-only server will be opened).

there is the wasteland 2155 server which is in the works right now but which will be a dedicated RP server once complete. All characters need to be accepted by admin, and this way each player only gets 1 character.

As far as RP projects go on 2238 the 'Hub Project' was pretty awesome, you can read about it on the wiki.

Also I just started this thread http://fodev.net/forum/index.php?topic=17967.0 (http://fodev.net/forum/index.php?topic=17967.0) so if you are still around please come and introduce your self. thanks!
