If it is at the end of the subject line it could mean there is more if you click on it.

Thanks! I don't really understand its usefulness, but perhaps I'm missing something...

On some boards, you have to click on each post to read it. On boards like that, people use abbreviations in the subject line like "nt" for no text or "m" for more so readers know whether to bother clicking into the post or not.

Sometimes you have just a short comment and you put it all in the subject line.

I'm glad this board is not like that. I hate reading boards like that, it doesn't flow well.

Always a wealth of information...thanks Karen! :) I'm glad this board isn't like that too. I can see how it would be very annoying.
