Other players in game?

Hello.

Well thing is i began playing last week, as a blood elf mage (never played Wow before), and it all works out pretty well...
But why haven't i meet any other playes so far?
Seems game would be a bit more fun if there where other people around, if you know what i mean.

Also i would like to know how to enter chat with who ever is online in the game?

Well we're not a VERY highly populated server so you might not find a lot of players around,but get to 70 and you will find a lot of them either hanging around in shattrath city or duelling,or raiding, or MOST probably pawning each other's asses in the nasty battlegrounds ...and u can just type in /join world to join the mainstream channel of the server,where u will find most of the players
