conversation: User (Rayven52): "I have 12 hard inquiries in the last 2 years according to Credit wise on the capitol one credit card app I have. 12 is a really high number but it's from when I was trying to get my first car a couple of years ago. Do I have to wait for them to go away  or is there something I can do? Does it take 2 or 3 years for them to be off my credit report?"
  Self: "Wait 2 years is the only way. Your credit score is not significantly affected by having multiple inquiries close together. They understand you may be shopping for the best rate."
  User (Rayven52): "Got it thanks. That and me owing on my credit card are the only knocks so far on my credit and I'm working on paying off the card. I just didn't know how much weight they carry only saw that credit wise told me it was below average "
