First and foremost, join the "rpgnet" channel in order to be able to chat with the rest of us, no matter what server you're on. To join, either right click on a chat tab and choose "join channel", or use the command:

A lot of people use binds to make it so that when they press a key (the p key in the example below), they can just start typing and have the text go to the rpgnet channel.
examples:
/bind p "beginchat /send rpgnet "
/bind p "beginchat /send rpgnet [$name $level +VIR] "

Useful Links
COH/COV's "Guide to Guides" - Your #1 resource for COH faqs.
Invention/Consignment tutorial video from NCSoft, hosted by MMORPG.com. About 4 or so minutes of your time.
ParagonWiki is another invaluable resource. Some good topics for new players:
- Hero Story Arc which can help you find story arcs to play through. No wandering around aimlessly, plus an asset for role-players wanting to take on certain storylines/enemy groups for RP-purposes.
- Enhancements - A good overview of City of Heroes/Villain's Enhancement system (enhancements being the closest thing to actual equipment in COx).
- Consignment House - Now that you can create things, there's a place to sell them at too. Its different than what other games have to offer - its not like a City of Heroes eBay.
FAQ - This FAQ was put together by people on LiveJournal, and was then linked to by a dev on the forums.
The CoH Livejournal Community also has a great many active players.
For City of Villains players, Khaiba's Mastermind Numeric Keypad Pet Controls are head and shoulders above the default Mastermind pet interface and can spare a player many pet-related headaches.
