Welcome back to EQ! As far as guilding up I just kinda let it happen if I meet a cool group of guilded folk in my adventures. I think it's more important especially at low levels to remember or /friend people you enjoy grouping with.
As far as shaman goes choose the race you want, troll Regen is a solid plus, ogre frontal stun immunity is helpful for getting off root while being beat on, barbs have good race and polar bear going for them. Ogre and troll get to start close to guk/ec/port spots and don't have to travel nearly as far to buy spells. It's really for you to decide, your group/guild won't care at all which flavor shaman you go.
