Uggggg Help Please

Every time I try to print all I get is a ball of melted filament on the nozzel.

This has two causes:
1) Your bed is not trammed correctly i.e the bed is not parallel to the XY axis
2) Your filament is not adhering to the bed due to lack of kapton tape, blue tape, hairspray, sugar water, etc.

Also how do you learn the settings and what to put with what print such as infill, temps, and other items that I have no idea of how to set.

The CTC is a FlashForge clone, no? In which case you may want to read this
Beyond that you don't give us enough information i.e. what are you trying to print, what material are you using, what slicer are you using, etc.

I have this thing for a year and have gotten maybe three good prints.

Again, if your CTC is a FlashForge clone then you have a very decent machine that can - with the right settings - give you great print every single time.
