How do I get started playing?

What do I need to do to get started playing?

i need to know this too..
and i'm on a mac. can someone please help me out getting on a server, thanks:)

The link to the FAQ in my sig should answer most questions. There is a playguide wiki page linked in the FAQ that should explain the rest.

There isn't currently a mac option for playing EQEmu other than to run a windows emulator to install EQ onto.

There isn't an official mac option, but check this post out:

I've used this fairly extensively and it works very well. On my computer (2.4Ghz Core 2 Duo, 4Gb RAM), I can't really tell the difference between this and booting into Windows directly. Obviously, you can't run additional programs (MQ2, eqPlayNice, etc.), so it might not work for everyone.

Thanks for posting this.
