Delete HE cleric and make a Dark Elf.

Dont listen to this clown. Halfling is clearly the cleric master race. Sneak > all. Seriously, sneak is a super underappreciated skill by most players. Brella is just cranky that he chose an inferior race. Literally the only downside to halfling clerics is no robes - fashionquest is pretty important stuff.

Like other people said, make friends. Don't just got LFG in popular zones - send tells to players and organized duo / trio groups. When you find someone who isn't bad, /friend them and then harass them whenever you see them online. If you're good, people will want to group with you. If you're not good, ask questions or for suggestions on how you could do better. Nothing makes me want to group with someone less than them getting defensive over constructive criticism. Chances are you'll run into quite a few players here with multiple 60s and who know just about everything about this game, and most of them are cool and just trying to be helpful.

Clerics duo well with a lot of classes - ench, mage, nec, monk, war, ranger are all good partners. Find one of them and start a duo - if you're a social person add more group members once you get rolling.
