I am in no way an "innate chemist". I am also a beginner. But my critique isn't that you don't understand, it's that you didn't even TRY.
First of all, search the forum for the syntheses you are looking for. BEFORE asking questions. It's a simple search, has nothing to do with being a chemist.
Then, when you find it, read it. If there are things there you don't understand, google them. If you get stuck, ask about those specific things.
If you ask, like you did, "How do you make amphetamine?" the answer is "Read the goddamn synth description on the forum!".
However, if you ask "Sorry, I read this synth description *link*, and I don't understand what it means to basify the solution" (or some other specified part of the synth), you can get tips and answers. I for one would happily help you with whatever knowledge I have. You can find several examples of this on this forum.
It's ok to not know chemistry. It's not ok to be lazy and not even try yourself. And if you don't know how to search a forum or ask questions that people can actually answer, you need to learn that first. If you're not prepared to do that, noone can help you and this is not for you.
At least that's my five cents.
