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.

Yes, the Barclay Arrival Plus is offering 70000 , I applied for it for my brother last week, was instant approval, but he was at 0/24 . He has all the Chase cards he wants for now.

Interesting to see I have 330 boards set to receive notifications.

 I think the most effective way to receive notifications for a reply and comment is via taptalk.

I have enabled "Turn notification on when you post or reply to a topic" and "Instantly" (and there's a bunch of threads listed on that page) but receive no email notifications ever.

1. How do you "like" a post?

2. What are "hat tips" and how do you give it?

3. What are the various levels and how many posts is necessary to obtain each?
