> I urge to join a corporation with well experienced and active people

Absolutely this ^^^

After a couple of months learning the basics I joined a mostly UK based corp who's members had been around since the inception of Eve back in the early 2000's. This was around the time Eve introduced the faction war update (Empyrean Age - 2008) and these guys wanted to encourage new players to do PVP but in safer non-null sec space, which the faction warfare update was sort of intended to do.

Being in my early 40's at the time I wasn't a hugely "social gamer", however it turns out many committed Eve players are in that older demographic (30's or older I'd reckon) and many of us had the same interests and senses of humour.

To cut a long story short, I had an absolute whale of a time with these folks (Dark Rising - who're still around operating back out in null-sec again) for a year or so. I don't think I've laughed so hard such as at the times we had spies...on TeamSpeak...in opposing faction corps and they had no clue we'd infiltrated them. The game really took over my life for a while and was amazing fun, and the way to have that kinda fun is to join a corp.
