On : some systems the end would get chopped off even if it wasn't on the : system of the person who posted it. : OK, putting them at the end won't work. So what could be done to keep : them, but also make them less annoying? How about all lower case, in ()? : I did this post that way as an example. No i think not... The shorter the better so we can ALL see the whole subject (I see it all anyways but this way it's better) ... Now: I think question can be abbreviated with Q: Line with L: etc...
