Having played in both styles of RP, I have to say that honestly, LJ is not very well-suited to prose-style RPing much of the time. It's usually games that take place on BBS/messageboards with flat threads rather than branching threading that seems far more conducive to prose. I've seen it done both ways on both, really, and the majority of the time forums seem to lean towards prose while LJ RP goes for more dialogue/interaction-based play.

The idiots and bad RPers are everywhere, though, regardless of style or forum. Oh, and coming from someone who admin'd more than one message board-based RP before? I've generally seen better character development in the LJ stuff regardless of the overall RP quality, even if the forum prose sometimes allowed for plots to be accelerated more quickly and obviously.
