its probably best to join a guild that are registered here
http://www.guildwarsguru.com/guilds/search.php and then you can join up with
other like minds at the same level as you who help you out along the way. I
joined a guild a bit late in my development, so I ended up helping out all
the noobs in the guild because I am the all powerful one with no other help
found.
