What do K&R and n/t mean? i'm pretty new here
i see people post K&R all the time and have no clue what it means. I seen n/t also which I'm thinking refers to when a post is just contained with the subject line or something.

2. You're correct on the n/t
Can also read eom for "end of message"

K&R is "kicked and recommended"

9. And every time you post a response, it kicks the thread up.
So in theory, by just typing R, you'd still be kicking the thread up. :7:

And the button to recommend is on the original post (OP). (Just in case you didn't know.)

6. I usually use n/m (no message) instead of n/t
Although I'm definitely in the minority around here.

11. You might even see "eom" at the end of the subject line. That means end of message. Welcome to DU!

12. The way I understand it, K&R
means, KISS BUTT and REPLY, and NT- Means NO Telling!
