Sorry, I am a complete noob when it comes to this game.
I honestly haven't played in 3 years.

My goal is to be somewhat good at chess. I'm not expecting to be a master or anything right now. I just want to get the basics of the game.

How long do you think it would take to achive this goal. Also, do you guys have any advice for a begginer. I just joined today and was wondering how it works.

Play as much as time allows. I recommend 10/10 minutes games. After playing a few dozen games, ask the forums again. Chess Fundamentals by Capablanca would be a very good beginner's book.
