Looking at https://www.warmane.com/information , they seem to be pretty evenly matched in terms of population. But regardless of the side you join, if you /join global, you'll get people complaining how the other faction is soooo much better in battlegrounds and how only the other faction ganks lowbies.

Very, but for some guilds, the guild rewards aren't unlocking properly. It's been an ongoing issue for a while now, so you may want to ask around and see which guilds actually have unlocked rewards at the vendor.

It does, but most people tend to form a group either in their guild or on global before queueing up, so solo queues can take a while, especially if you're a DPS class during off-peak hours.

No comment, I suck too much to make a reliable healer.

Warlocks, mages, hunters and warriors seem to be popular picks.

Guardian druids are another popular pick. It's not uncommon to run into a bear on the Timeless Isle with 900k+ HP who just curb stomps you if you're there for the first time.

That really depends on what you're looking for, but I've no doubt people will claim whatever guild they're in is the best and every other guild sucks ogre butts.

They do, but the gear tokens you get from them may not always give you what you want. Even though they should open up and give you a piece that matches your spec, it's quite often that you get something you can't use at all. For instance, my DK has opened a number of tokens hoping to get Blood spec gear, and though I did eventually finish the set, I got a lot of intel pieces. However, if you find a Burden of Eternity and use it on a token from a chest, you will always get a 535 piece that matches your spec, so at least those aren't wasted. Also, if you're a cloth user, it's not so bad as the worst that can happen is that you get a decent piece that happens to have spirit on it which you may not need if you're a mage or a warlock, but that's not too terrible.

If you can get enough of them, sure. But even without them, it's still very easy to level up as long as you plan ahead. Especially once you reach Pandaria as there are vendors there selling green ilvl 372 gear that makes it much easier to murder stuff on your way to 90.

I'd lean on the better side. Now, don't get me wrong, it has its fair share of issues. The above mentioned gear tokens make it more difficult to gear up early on, doing battlegrounds is a hit or miss depending if you run into a 550 premade steamrolling everyone, there's quite a few broken quests and so on. But there's plenty of good stuff as well. Especially if you find yourself in a decent guild with decent people. For instance, I really enjoy solo running older raids, and most of vanilla, BC and Wrath raids are open save for Sunwell, Ulduar and Ruby Sanctum. I'd say give it a go, it's free so it's not like there's anything for you to lose except a bit of time.

dont waste ur time on frostwolf if going to play pve very very buggy.
