Hiya TRS80 and Welcome to RG!
Looks like Durango linked you the video to get your feet wet. Below is some additional info that help as well once you've watched them all.
When you have an idea of how things work, you'll want to look into some automation options. Check out
Kissassist Beginners Guide,
Kissassist Commands ,
RGmercs, and especially
cwtn plugins ( you can also
/testcopy your toons and use the
cwtn plugins there for free and you'll want to spend some time looking at
CWTN Plugins Explained.).

I suggest getting your feet wet slowly and be patient as it takes time to absorb all this information. Try taking your toons somewhere safe and lower level at first and explore the automation options. It takes some time to get used to, so don't be surprised it if feels overwhelming at first.
Once you feel like your're getting the hang of it (or to get a more in depth idea of what this site can do), then check out the plugins,
macros, and
lua's available to complement your automation. Things like
MQ2pluginmanager,
buttonmaster, mq2autogroup,
MQ2Autoaccept,
MQ2Status,
GuildClicky,
Boxhud,
MQ2Buffme ,
Magellan and more. You'll also want to see
Lua event manager.
Looks like Rob gave you a few months of level 2, so you're all set there. To maintain it you have 2 options. First, you can subscribe (paid method) or second, you can use Red Cents. What the heck is a Red Cent you ask? Red Cents can you help with your subscription and it's the currency this site uses. Contribute helpful information (post here) and others will give you red cents and each red cent you give others returns one to you. check it out!

Lots of info and a super helpful community here to help when you get stuck.
