jesp Posted July 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 (edited) When someone is selling something why do people leave a post that says, Pm'd? Does that mean they want to be messaged or that they messaged the person or what? Edited July 9, 2009 by jesp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceturf Posted July 9, 2009 Report Share Posted July 9, 2009 When someone is selling something why do people leave a post that says, Pm'd? Does that mean they want to be messaged or that they messaged the person or what? This just means that they have sent a private message (ei, pm) to said individual about said topic.

jvision Posted July 10, 2009 Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 MTS used to always mean Malaysian Trumpet Snails, but since so many of us keet NEEDING to buy more tank, hence the Multi-Tank Syndrome. PMed = Private Messaged OP = Original Post(er) BN Pleco = Bristle Nose Pleco CS = Cherry Shrimp Those are the ones I use most of the time... if there are others you need to know, just ask Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
