New here and not up on the jargon. I keep seeing "n/t" and "k and r" mentioned. Can someone please enlighten me?
Thanks,
Trudy

"n/t" means "no text" - the post has only a subject line (so users don't waste a click to open an empty message)
"k and r" means "kick and recommend" - it's a way to bump the thread to the top of the group or forum (kick) and indicate your support for the thread (recommend).
