			Go for gold, do it with other people to get renown for killing the mobs, with that renown buy the equip from the shiphand vendor, put basic runes of your main stats in that equip and voila, you can do dungeons to get a better equip there

			I just hit 50 today and i am pretty lost on what to do gearing wise. I did a few vet ship hands. One of those being daily. I really would just like to see if anybody has any step by step guide or advice on what to do end game wise to get me started here. Also, on vet shiphands, should i go for gold or just go for completion?

			Well... what do you really want to do in end game? Do you want to raid? Do mainly PvP? Become a housing expert? What do you want to do?

			i also just started and my issue im having in my mind is that the population is so low that i wont be able to do anything like my example is how can i get into raid groups when nobody cares anymore and no people to do it with etc

I think alot of people are in the beta instead of in the game.
 
As for gear I feel like holding off a little.  I don't know exactly what is coming down the bend as far as runes go and how they fit into the f2p model.

Join a guild. I cannot tell you this enough.
Being in a guild brings you in contact with people that have done it all before, and can point you in the right direction or even craft you the gear you need to get going.

I would recommend you start taking missions from the Contracts Board each day or however often you play and complete them over the course of playing the game.  They can usually be fit around whatever playstyle you prefer, and award money and decent gear at each of the milestones.
 
Shiphands I would definitely try to get gold each time for better rewards, and you could try to join with other people for increased renown but to be honest unless you can get a premade group of 3 together you may as well join solo.  Otherwise you could end up waiting for a long time for even a 3-man group to get together, but the shiphands scale down and are easy enough to complete solo.

Here is a nice guide to read over:

Take a look and see what you still need to get done and start doing it :)
