FD call to arms

Not sure anyone will be interested in this or if this is even the right way to go about this but here it goes. I have been a long time lurker and leecher of information of this thread. In the 4 or 5 years I've been reading this thread, I think I've had 2 successful FD's that I've been able to figure out and use for vacations. Also, in all that time I've never given back any useful information. Mostly because I feel like I am always behind on the current tricks and don't even understand half of them. Plus, I don't even know where to start.

Well, I'd like to change all that and and start giving back if I can. I have quite a bit of time on my hands and if anyone is willing to "mentor" me, I'd like to learn how to find useful information, like low bf's or 3X's, that the community can use. And by no means am I asking for free advice but more of "homework" if you will, to help me along the path of becoming proficient at FD'ing. Granted I dont expect to become a guru like WWE, ag2000, Raffles, et all, but just looking to become a productive member for once.

With that, I've started to re-read this thread from page 1 (currently on page 240) and have compiled a list of terms, 3X's (old and new), and definitions and terms.

If anyone better than I finds this interesting, please shoot me a PM.

Thanks.
