Topic Wiki

This is the thread where you can ask any random question you have. Feel free to ask even the most basic questions that you otherwise might be embarrassed to ask. This is the thread for beginners, so veterans here will treat you nicely. Ask a beginner's Q in some other threads and no guarantee of that same treatment. ;)
People here want to help, so just have some patience, follow the tips below and hopefully someone will help you when they have a chance.

If you looking for a particular thread you once saw and can't find it, this is not the place to ask. Check out Help Me Find It and ask there.

How to ask a question in this thread:
Click the blue reply button at the top or bottom of the page, type your question, and click post!

Some helpful tips for eliciting answers from other members:
- Keep your question short and precise. No one wants to read a megillah.
- The more questions you ask in one post, the less likely any will be answered. People are willing to answer a question or two, but if you ask all the questions that apply to your particular issue, you're expecting to be spoonfed. Members don't like holding out the spoon, so ask accordingly.

How do you get a notification when you are mentioned or your post is quoted?

Can you take subway from Hyatt/LGA to Kith - 644 Broadway, New York, NY 10012?
Need to be there 9:00am tomorrow morning. How much would Uber be?
"LESS IS MORE" It is the cumulative effect that kills deals!!! How many times do I have to say this?  >:(

are you taking this thread over as your personal thread? You're not a beginner if you have close to 2K posts. (Even though you might soon be a beginner again)

Anyway yes you could take the subway and it would take 45min to 1 hour. If you want to know how much an Uber costs you could enter it in to your app

I take beginners to mean in certain areas. Thanks for your help!
