I doubt that Miqo'tek is a Miqo'te-only LS, I think they're just playing on the fact that the founders are both Miqo'te. Send a PM to Aylis to clarify, I'm sure she wouldn't mind.
Guilds/LS's and RPing--well, it really depends on the linkshell (LS). Guilds in FFXIV are different from other games. We get a physical item, called a linkshell or linkpearl, which you can hear and speak into to communicate with your guildies. So yes, you can (and very often do) have RP occurring via the linkpearl (audio only). Of course, people meet up and RP in person too, don't get me wrong. Sometimes, a pearl is used strictly for RP, sometimes it is used for OOC socialization (denoted by speaking in ((parentheses)) or [brackets]) as well as RP. And of course there are plenty of OOC only social and game-content related linkshells.
People will talk about free companies too, which are a new feature that we don't know that much about yet, but are kind of like an "upgraded" LS with in-game benefits such as a guild house.
Oh, and welcome!
