I don't know where to look for creating a pathfinder society character. I went to The PFS create a character and got to the creating part. But, where is the link to how to make the character? Such as, restricted classes, point buy amount, restricted races, starting gear, and so on.

And the Additional Resources page will tell you what character options are legal or not for your character. Most stuff is, but double check when you use anything that's not in the Core Rulebook, just to be sure.

Being a jerk in character is still being a jerk.

And making an obvious joke in character is still making a joke, even if it's a bad one.

You can dance around this all day but you are still going to end up at the fact that you called a new player stupid for asking a question. The only way I can see you saving any face here would be to apologize and move on.

I'll just move on without the apology so that the thread doesn't get any more attention than it deserves.

HAHA, you both are stupid[.] (Facetious Punctuation)
Here is my character. I'm still working on it, but this should be right.

After reading the Guide to Organized Play, a good idea is to print out the core 1st level pre-gen PCs to get an idea. You can even start with one and play it for a couple scenarios then change anything on it to suit your style.

Meh,I've played since DnD 3. I have a pretty good idea. Most character's I make are just on a piece of loose-leaf. I just wanted to try and get into the society. Seems pretty neat. Is there a map, or something. I have had this character in the past. I know his backstory, I just don't know how it fits in the world. There is a lot to read, no problem, but to try and find out who might be warring against who; that would be 27 years ago, so how long is a season. Maybe a retired faction was in my backstory.

It's actually a great question and great website feedback.
After you go to that Pathfinder Society page, to get to the link to the guide, you need to first click on Player Resources on the right hand side or Products on the bottom right. Very easy to miss if you're brand new since you don't know what you're looking for, even though you're the target audience! And you did the most obvious thing to do by clicking the big bad "Join the Pathfinder Society and create a character now!" link.

Clicking on your character name to see the PC, the one thing that jumped out at me is that you're missing a point on your point buy. If you just want to keep your stats incredibly balanced, I'd recommend just throwing the extra point on constitution. That'll give you one more point that you can go negative before dying if you happen to get knocked unconscious.
As for warring nations from 27 years ago... ummm... good question. Since you want sandy areas, Osirion and Qadira are the obvious choices. Qadira and it's neighbor to the north, Taldor, are always in a state of cold war, even when they're not actively warring. I don't know exactly what the situation was 27 years ago in the game world.
