    Your best bet is to try to get into groups of other players. After around level 15, you can leave noob isle and hit the mainland. At the freeholds, you should look for other player groups.

    You can also help yourself greatly by going to the official SB Server forums and looking at the Political or Enlistment forums. There you can find other guilds who are accepting members, and will be more than happy to help you.

    It's best to actually try to hit level 20-23 while you're on noob isle as when you go to the freeholds there are many that will try to PK you as soon as they see  you on track near the freeholds (as far as farming/XPing spots are concerned).

    Also here's an idea for how to get some leveling (since I and most others hate being on noob isle more than a few hours at the most).  Get in a group kill those spiders/ants.  From there run to the lizardmen until level 5 or 6 at the most as the reward for killing them becomes pretty much worthless at that point.  After that if you're at Kestamir (I generally use this as a default starting city) head directly East of town to the Grobold camps, you can easily hit level 10 or 12 (you can hit the maximum negative xp maximum at these camps also, the negative xp develops from you hitting level 10 and not promoting... you can only go to about -110,000 xp or the equivalent of level 13).  From there either head over to Fort Baelin and kill Bandits till you're level 15 (of which you can kill bandits from level 5 to 17 and still get xp) or head over to the Nail Tooths and Pythons as they're what will sustain you till level 22-23 when you have to leave the island anyway because you'll no longer be guilded to any of the cities (I believe you are automatically kicked from all starting island guilds at level 22).  From there you can either leave and head over to a guild if you're sure they'll grab you at that point or you can head over to one of the 3 freeholds til you reach level 36 at which point you'll be booted and sent on your way to join any guild that you wish/is interested in you.

    Otherwise there really isn't that much to do on that starting isle and well.. the freeholds are fun but there are too many PKers over there and you will level a lot faster in a guild that has it's own city(s) and well.. its PL groups will help you level very quickly.
