I'm thinking of rooting my EVO but I don't know how to and I don't know how to unroot if I had too. I'm hoping to get some good info and maybe some links..

Read thru the Dev sec there are threads on how to unroot

All the info is here. You are in the right place. Check out the dev section and you will find exactly what you are looking for. I started right where you are at and came here, but instead of asking people to show me the links, I read and read and read every post in the dev section that had to do with rooting and unrooting. Now both are very easy for me. I suggest that you go to the dev section and look for [ROOT] at the beginning of the thread title and read them all. That's what everyone else did and I seriously doubt someone is going to give you all the links to root your EVO.
Why would you want to unroot your EVO? I've never wanted to go back.

Okay so i been lurking around XDA for sometime now and i own an HTC Evo which i love, and would love more if i could root it with some cool Roms but every tutorial i have seen, I get stuck or it just gets too complicated or it's outdated and i just quit because i really don't want to brick or damage this phone. I don't know if it's me or the tutorial probably both or just me but too me this feels like rocket science so if anyone could help me root my phone i would very much appreciate it, I can Chat through Gmail or a different messenger.
Sorry if i posted in the wrong section but i figured since this is the development section mostly everyone in it must know how to root.
Check this thread out from android forums. http://androidforums.com/evo-4g-all-things-root/194918-rooting-dummies-extras.html
I recommend using the unrevoked method if you do not have the new h-boot. Whatever method you end up using just make sure you read/follow the directions carefully.

going to try out the method you posted since my Evo has 3.29 and not the new hboot
I just got the HTC Evo today and I am trying to the most recent thread about rooting it. I am sorry for asking but this is the first time I use this site. Can someone post the link please?
You need to go to the EVO Sub-Forum. Here is a link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=619
There, you will see additional sub-forums. The specific one you are looking for is the 3rd one down called EVO Android Development. In there is everything you need to know. There are many threads about how to root the phone and much much more.
If you feel overwhelmed and need to ask a question you are better off asking it in the Q&A sub-forum of the EVO section. But, there is a sticky in the Development thread called "Useful Threads" which will likely provide more clarity. Here is a link to that:

the new unrevoked3 doesn't work with the new phones yet unless they released a newer version other than 3.22

look around the board lol LOADS AND LOADS of info here DIVE in !
check the stickies at the top of each subforum. You will find PLENTY of info and how-to's. Also, it really helps to just spend a few hours on here browsing around, you will be surprised at what you will learn.
Pretty much what everyone has already said, but I'd also like to mention the IRC channels. There's a sticky post for that. The guys in the chat rooms have been friendly and helpful in my adventures as an EVO newbie.
Since somebody put it on the general topics and not in the stuickies I decided to put it here will post mine in a little but other then that go ahead I'm interested in seeing the creativity!!
Edit: sorry tried posting this in the stickies anybody know how to do that??? Lol FAIL

You can start your search for info HERE.
And when you are done reading that you can try http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1473373 . Which is currently the thread right below this one. There's probably literally hundreds of threads here on rooting. You have to read...especially the stickies.
