6. I always put it in the text, but you're supposed to put it in the title

It's a stupid inside joke I have with myself.

Historically, you put "nt" in the title of your post so people don't have to scroll down to read it. It used to be helpful in long messages in the days of 24k and 56k.

Several years ago on another message board, in a real long post, I did it by accident, and somebody griped at me about it. Now I do it all the time.

So if you see me do it....it's wrong. Just put it in the post title when you've got no text.
