WoW: Battle Reports

My first day in the WoW went something like this: I materialized in front of Northshire Abby and basically stood motionless for a good long while not knowing what to do. Any passerby would have probably noticed drool slowly escaping my mouth. A female character approached, laughed at me, then opened a trade window. She had to do this a couple times before I caught on what I was supposed to do to complete her requested transaction. I received some tarnished armor and a better mace than the one I was born with. Not the best equipment but much better than what I would have been able to procure on my own for some time. I figure she sensed my confusion and took pity on me.

Afterwards I began exploring and started learning the mechanics of the game. I completed a few quests and joined the Agony guild. One thing I'd like to know is why can't anyone in this world deliver letters their damn selves? Here's what a typical quest involves:

Person A: Give letter to person B
Person B: Go to person C to get permission for A and B to do something.
Person C: Go to person D and fetch an item for A and B
Person D: Go kill E, F, G, and H to get needed materials for person C.

I really want to play as the Undead but a friend of mine from my sims online days got me into this game and she plays as Alliance. I'll probably start an undead character on a different server later.
