1.) Are you supposed to play the original game first, and then move on to the expansions, or do you just go straight to Lich King?

2.) Every time I try to play, I'll log in to the realm and everyone else is either standing still or running in place. Then it will boot me out withing a minute. Can anyone help me fix this?

1) you level through the original game, then move on through the expansions, 2) I'm no tech guy, that happened to me sometimes when I had lag, but your problem sounds more permanent, someone here may be able to help.

You can go straight to Lich King. It just opens up far more options than the original or BC (if you have those versions, the game will install enough to recognize their additions, but leave them locked to you).

Can't help with the second thing, though...

1. You level into Lich King, no worries there

2. You're probably having either a bad connection or there is some server problems. Such things should stop. If not, try to check your connection or play on a different server.

1. Was answered by others
2. If your computer isn't able to handle the load it will disconnect you as well. The reason you can log on the next time is most of the data is already in your memory so it doesn't need to reload. Several things can be done to fix this.
a. Upgrade your computer if possible
b. Log out in less populated areas. Dalaran is a particularly bad place to log out in as it lags like hell.
c. Use fewer addons, particularly high memory ones like Auctioneer, Quest Helper, and DPS Meters.
d. Do not restart your computer, put it on standby between sessions. This can be a detriment if you lack RAM, however, as it will quickly fill up and slow down your computer.

1) Like other have said you have to level into the Lich King. Its like having the Lord of the Rings books and starting at the return of the king not reading the other two. You would be very lost so thats the games starts at the classic game and you level up from there.
2)You're being booted out of servers probably because of lag, i'd do what the poster above does. Also if you go into a heavily populated server i found on my old realm, you tend to be disconnected. Try a quieter (spelling :S) realm. However i'm not exactly techy but my bf does agree as he shouted out lag when i asked him.

um ok, youre sposed to play the first one first you cant use BC till youre level 58 or unless you wanna roll a blood elf or a draeni, and you can use lichking till youre 68 or want a deathknight then its like 55, so yeah you dont play them right away, the other problem is that youre clearly lagging HARD, check your net is working fully and if it is then perhaps you should try to avoid major cities or too densly populated areas coz it sounds like youre being lag booted to me.

You level through the expansions. You don't need to buy them until you hit 60, though obviously without them attached to your account you can't start a Blood Elf, Draenei or Death Knight.

Get a better connection.
