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.

Right! So I guess there is no way online... So annoying when apps have more features than the web version...

Also, do you guys select that the most recent post should be on page 1 or most recent post on last page (i.e., page 123)?
Your post history is a chronological list of all threads you participated in (although there are doubles if you posted multiple times).
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

There is an option to see participated. It only shows a limited amount, though.

You're right. I thought it was limited, like post history.

How do you search things on a ladder if you don't use a phone (if you don't mind me asking)?
