New player with some questionsFollow

Hello I just bought LoTRO the other day and been playing around with it. A few things confuse me so I wondered if you all could help abit.

I play wow, and I notice some similarities and some differences. Is there some type of forum for us newbies I can look at? I noticed there's a wiki but alot of it seems to parrot whats already said ingame and some parts of it are incomplete, is there a better wiki or something that I'm missing?

I have some quests that are in a crafting catagory, like get some woodworking lore, how do I do these?

Kinships are the equivalent of guilds I assume? If so, is there one on Bradywine I could join that would put up with my newbiness? Hmm I think that's it for now! Thank you ^^!
