I agree with Swashbuckler, you need to ask yourself what your into. I created a character and starting playing just to get a feel for the game before I came up with a RP character first, and it feels like there are a lot of different way's to RP on here.I think I am going to start a character and build as a I go to get a feel for RP. I think I am going to start on Balmung and just feel things out and if I feel like things are going well/good fit I will build a back story for my main and transfer her over from Adamantoise.Â
In terms of starting, there seem to be 2 different takes on it, depending on how you like to do it. There is 1. Planning a character and backstory before you start to play, and 2. Going in and developing your story as you go.
I personally LOVE creating a character and backstory first.
What I am really looking for is a group that doesn't mind helping out a noob get her feet wet.

When I first joined WOW, all my friends who persuaded me to join were like all awesome to chat with and they gave me all this gear to give me a head start and that, but they were all maxed out and going on raids and that. They wanted to help me out, but they didn't want to be bored killing level 10 monsters all day.
My point being, I decided to make new friends online as well that were new and my level, and we helped each other level together and progress through the quests together and were much more helpful then any seasoned player could have been. And most of them ended up becoming the core friends I played with till I stopped playing wow.Â
So I would love to accompany you with your new character if you will have me.

However, I am not transferring any characters to Balmung unless by the time my character is well leveled the server isn't open still I will. :/
