I just started as well. IMO the entire scene (lets say EC for example) does not revolve around new starters. Why should it? I've gotten buffs unasked, I've been handed gear unasked. I'm not looking for some druid to shadow me with sow and thorns, because I want to play the way it was - and from what I've seen so far, blue is spot on.
Even if no one had cast a spell on me, or handed me a piece of bronze, the new player experience is so close to what it was in 2000. Maybe you get a buff, maybe you get a freebie, but mostly you are on your own. Ask a question? Someone answers. When you want something, ask, donate, give. When you have something, offer, sell, donate. This is why I love EQ.
