Hard not to troll what looks to be a troll thread....
I'll take it seriously, though. Amanda has the "join other people" part right. The down side is if you aren't trolling, not many people are going to take on completely new people. There's a really good thread stickied at the top called "Sevenless's guide for beginning players." You should read through it. Play for a few weeks, get the hang of the game, and others are more likely to accept someone that's just "green" and not completely new.
