Pocket D's bad reputation for ERP comes from CoH's ERPers being more open about what they do, than ERPers in other games - to an extent. Not nessecarily openly cybering, but openly searching for partners, and describing whatever strange sex-based powers their characters have in their bio.
This isn't really CoH-specific either. Even though CoH ERPers are (from what I've seen) far more open about it, there are places with similar reputations in basically every game. WoW has Goldshire/Silvermoon, SWG has Mos Eisley Cantina, we have Pocket D.
It's not that you can't find more mundane RPers within the D. It's just that you notice the more extravagant ones first.
There could be a H-Side (or V-Side) specific hotspot, but it'd have to be some sort of community effort. Sometimes these things work out, sometimes they don't. Generally, people will go there for a week or two and then migrate back to the usual location(s), but it all depends on who's pushing for it.
