Oh boy.
My first recommendation is to learn how the JVM works. As well as the arguments that go with them. It's allowed me a much greater understanding of the why behind the code and errors.
I also suggest getting a reference book. A how to learn java guide.
Then get myrathi to give you lessons.

To do FTB support you only have to know simple java like reading crash reports and JVM arguments well unless some crazy stuff happens at the help desk 
If you find something good, mind letting me in on what you find? I, too, feel like I should get to know some more of the technical whys and hows of Java specifically (as opposed to computer programming in general) due to recent events.
Technical support maxim #673: Never underestimate what the customer can manage to do to cause problems for themselves.

I love how you say simple
To understand those crash reports, you need to know Minecraft Forge inside out...Well I defiantly have that doing a year of this and making forge modsI love how you say simple
I've gone through forge a hundred plus times and still don't understand it in and out

I've gathered that. I've been looking at modded crash logs for almost 2 years now. One year with FTB, and frankly not much has changed. It would be nice to understand what causes it.

Yeah, a year = simple..., also I think your signature is leaking ... a lot (its got heaps of whitespace)
I love how you say simple
I don't know shit about forge.
You know shit about forge
also dont you do tech support you need to know alot about forge debuggingYou know shit about forge
Not at all. 90% of all problems brought to be a solved by troubleshooting, because people are not intelligent.
and out of the other 10%, about 75% of the answers are found on google
I have maybe ran into 4 or 5 problems on the forums that I couldnt find anything on google[DOUBLEPOST=1378348664][/DOUBLEPOST]ahh look at that ash, you are my 500th liker I did the math once. I don't remember exactly but the help desk demographic resembled this at one time:
Ex. 100 tickets (just say I reply to all of them)
85% do not reply to me, they get closed after 2 days
Of the remaining 15%:
75-80% solved by troubleshooting
10-15% solved by other articles I've posted

I was suggested to read this: https://www.google.com/#q=head first java
I have a Java "manual" that my father in law gave me, and a few other books. Hubbyz says it's not something I'll learn from a book.
