Forgive my stupid question but why does the same thing not work for everyone? I mean for the most part these are the same diapers everyone is using, I'm still new to this so I can't understand why something would work for one diaper and not on another

Different water quality, washers, detergent, diaper type, and kid all effect how you need to clean diapers.

This. Hard water needs more detergent, soft less. An old fashioned top loader is great for most folks, but sucks for folks with super hard water (more mineral deposits). A wash routine that works for the flats user might not be effective on someone else's ON fitted with tons of layers. Kids with sensitive skin won't have as many detergent options. There are lots of variables to every routine. That said, it's not rocket science. There are some pretty basic places to start and simple variations that can be added, as needed, based on your specific variables.
Oh and also not all diapers are the same. Synthetic fibers are much more prone to issues than natural fibers. Synthetic fibers are shaped differently and harder to get clean.
Hey, just think about this. One of the FLCDS admins is a member of the TT fan club and they dominate the troubleshooting posts. Think about all those pretty TT's getting washed in 3 times the regular amount of Gain and sitting in bleach baths.
I saw a picture of TT bath tub stew today and wanted to weep! Those poor beautiful diapers!
Gotcha. So my HE front loading washer will probably have a different routine than a regular top loading washer. Speaking of which I need to find a good detergent for my type of washer...

More like what detergent is good for your type of water. Do you have hard water or soft? Then you need to think about possible skin sensitivities in the family. We don't have super sensitive skin so DS never had a problem with powdered Tide.
