Hello,
I asked a mod question today, and feel I already started off on the wrong foot.
So let me just say hi to this forum.
I am a newbie (game-wise that is,I did play a little Uncommon Valor and War Plan Orange).

This looks really good, but oh my, so detailed.
I'm sure I'll have some questions, so be kind.

Thank you

Welcome Mr Mitty.[8D]

Indeed I am a relative newbie myself.

I have always found this forum and these experienced forumites to be helpful, kind, intelligent, and informative.

I am unsure there is a 'wrong foot'; other than to say you will have many many questions no doubt.

My advice is:

1) Be specific as much as possible; with the title of the thread and the question. So many details within this game can be answered "it depends" on your circumstances.

2) Post a screen shot, a picture is worth a 1000 words.

3) Check out the Newbie thread FAQ in the war room, and other links such as the tutorial mentioned by BBFan. There is a tremendous amount of self help contained in these links.

You may end up reading something you don't understand yet...but 6 months (game time) you will say "ohh that makes sense".

Further clarification is often provided by the helpful community

+1 to all Macclan5 said. I would also suggest the following:

Find a few AAR's to follow. There is typically a lot of wisdom dispensed in these postings.

Pay close attention to any post by forum member "Alfred". He is THE authority on how the game works internally. I also suggest you read his "Logistics 101" and "Ship Repair" guides.

There is also a treasure trove of all sorts of AARs accumulated through years.
A couple of newbie-useful ones are Sardaukar's Newbie GC Tutorials tm.asp?m=2940156, tm.asp?m=2564541 and Mike Solli's all-things-Japan encyclopedia tm.asp?m=2959613
Too hard to mention all the others, there are so many of them, ranging from dry-report ones to full blown historical novels. AAR sectionof this forum can provide countless hours of enjoyment if you like to read
