I really like your guide, however it seems to be written for players who already are playing or are familiar with the game. You don't define many abbreviations or acronyms. For someone just starting out with the game this can be fairly frustrating reading. Can you add a section for abbreviations and acronyms, this would be very helpful. Here are examples:
DPS
AP
AoE
PvE
TBC
GCD
MS debuff
AE damage

That is a very nice Index! - Thanks for the reply. On a 'nub' note - I meant for this to be a reply to rpZIP's WarriorFAQ, but mis-posted it. By the way, how do people find and reply so fast to messages? Are you using some kind of notify tool to do you just happen upon the new messages?

-Thanks again

Messages being threads? For threads you just kinda wander around and stumble on them. Messages as in Private Messages, there's a little thing at the top of each thread telling you if you have any.

If you go under the 'my account' thing up top and go to posts, you can tell if you've been rated on any posts and can use that to check threads of interest if you've posted in them. The "replies" thing to the right will almost always say zero, because it only logs replies to threads that you've started.

Threads is what I meant - I was surprised at how quick some threads are replied too. Thanks for the tip..

Lol, mainly the reason is that you get someone who posts, and then will stay on the board waiting for a response, or (more likely), the poster will wander off to another thread, reading, answering, etc, and keep checking the threads he's been in recently. That's how you normally see conversations that sometimes appear to be real time.
