Tenhou is quite easy to use.

This is the room most 4chan users play in. The standard one ends in L0000 and is quite a bit more active, but has a very big mix of good users and complete newbies that have a high rage quit ratio.

Once you enter your name and come to the screen in the pic:

1) You don't need to worry about these tabs as you'll be on the main page by default, but the 1st one is the main page, 2nd one shows current games being played in the room, and you can follow the url there to see time delayed games. The 3rd tab shows your game history and has replays of the games.

2) Your name and stats.

3) All these buttons are for different rule sets of mahjong. The most popular one is the 4-player one that allows for red 5s and is both east and south round. In the screenshot, the 2:8 means that there are 2 players currently waiting to start a game using this rule set, and 8 players playing already. Just click the button to line up to play, and once 4 players are waiting a game will start.

You might want to play some singleplayer mahjong outside of tenhou first if you're completely new though, the discard timelimit can be quite stressful for new players.
