qft... think there are a couple of uses...


some use it to reinforce their agreement with the poster..

some use it to quote the original poster (OP), before they can go in there and edit the remarks they made..

thats my take on it..

I can't find any reference to IGIT but am going to guess "I Guess It's True" and will go with that for now.





"Igit" (Idiot) was originally used as a derogatory term for basement (off topic) posters and it worn by them (us) as a badge of honor.

Nms,

WTB usually means "Wanted To Buy" and is found in the classified section. And I'm surprised that it isn't already in the "acronyms list" --- I'll add it on my next update if there is one.

Thanks for bring it to my attentions.

Regards, Joe
