Some day you'll learn. 
EDITED to say: Maybe not.
Appbar, what happened to waiting so that you would get a good CL? Not to mention you are going to take ANOTHER FICO hit. You were just complaining in another thread that you want better limits. You will never get them this way. Even if they approve you, which is still not decided, it will only be for like $500 or something. You agreed it was best to wait.
WHY APPBAR???? WHY????
Starting Score: 693 TU FICO, 679 EQ FICO 
Hauling....... The eating popcorn emoticon was really inappropriate. The face slapping on the other hand sort of worked!
Oh, I'm sure LS will show up at some point Logan, at least I hope so LOL. He has the experience to guide Appbar better than most of us.
And yes, I was refraining from using the term "Appbar" since you were trying to garden Afbar. I too hope they give you a decent limit, out of some fluke of some kind, but that after this one, you actually garden and let what you have grow a bit as inq's fall off.
Appy (yes, you know who you are), you need to hold off the submit button before you get CLD, AA'd, closed etc by your other cards. I doubt that you'd consider that a step in the direction you want your credit history to go. 
I say this because I don't want to see you go down that road either, think of most of your accounts being closed and how that would reverse, not just slow, your credit building goal.
You should look at the long term goal, in 6 to 12 months, you might consider asking one of them for a CLI, that means no appying between now and then. During that time, if you treat them well (which I hope you plan to), you may even see an auto CLI of some kind before you request one, but not if you keep appying.
