Is there any guide that covers Low stakes NLHE ring games on this site or elsewhere? If not I think I may start to write one if nothing else than to improve myself as a player. Any tips or suggestions would be awesome.

Here you go:

Raise AA - JJ AK, AQ
Call with KQ, KJ, AJ, QJ - Fold to any raise
Call raises up tp 10% the raisers stack with pocket pairs <QQ
Reraise with QQ and better
AA, KK are the only all in preflop hands
Fold TPTK if you get raised at any point in a hand.
With low pp its no set no bet after the flop
Dont chase draws.

All the above can change in a flash if certain conditions arise.

What about suited connectors? or gapped suited connectors?

You need dead money in the pot, eg a few limpers before you act or a raise and a few cold callers.
You also need position

I would limp in if you're in late position and there's not a lot of limpers, and fold if you don't hit your straight. If you're UTG or anywhere mid-position I'd fold.

Shouldn't you be more inclined to limp with suited connectors when there are limpers in the pot because of the odds you're getting?

too many people limp with suited connectors and not enough dead money in the pot before hand. SO find some dead money (i.e fish)
