    *** Help

    I am hoping someone can explain (in short) what the purpose of *** is on this forum. I have been a member for awhile now, and I see this being used more and more.

    Thanks for clarification

    Mike

    It just means "Ditto" or "I agree" or even "Amen".

    This is kind of the way I took it Henry. It's ok if this is what the writer chooses, I just cant learn as much from *** as an explanation or opinion. I spend a lot of time on this forum and enjoy reading the post.

    A lazy way of not adding to the conversation.

    At 10,000 posts do I get a free kilt?
    If you see abbreviations, initials or acronyms you do not know the Xmarks FAQ section on abbreviations may help.
