A rp comes from old board games like Dungeons & Dragons where players would Role-Play a character of their choice. (aka: playing the role). RP maps first came out on Starcraft, where players set up the playing grounds, made the units, and pretended they were things like swordsmen or marines or such. This is basically the same, where you Roleplay the units and the setup you make however you want. Everyone has their own tastes, some like to rp, some don't.
And, yeah, rp = Role Play, which is where you're completely free. The there's RPG = Role Playing Game, where you play on a path already set for you.
