Tarnished Coast?
Not really the best place for this, but there is a guesting system in the game. Bring up server select, select Tarnished Coast, and click ‘guest’, and in theory you should be plopped in with the roleplayers (the megaserver’s sorting algorithm isn’t very transparent, though, so it’s hard to be sure). Being part of a roleplaying guild also helps a lot, and I hear having RPers on your friends list does too.
By the way, on these forums it’s safer to say that you’re “kittened”. The mods don’t like it when you bypass the profanity filters.

I’ll keep the profanity thing in mind.
The reason I am even asking is because it’s asking me to set a home server, and since that is where my friend is, I figured I would try there. Does having a home server even mean anything?
It does, but it can be circumvented by guesting. There are limits on the system, though- you can only guest to two other servers in a 24-hour period, you have to toggle it back on every time you log in or switch characters, and you’re stuck with your home server for WvW.

Home server only really matters for WvW, thanks to the megaserver.
Having a lot of RP’ers in guilds/friends list will often pop you into maps that have roleplayers in them already, you don’t necessarily need to have TC as your home server.
Only time it really matters is if you want to WvW with your friend.
Dear ANet writers,
Stop treating GW2 as a single story. Each Season and expansion should be their own story.
