I'm getting confused by the acronyms and abbreviations on here that seem to make sense to the posters but aren't explained in the 'official' list of 'abbreviations'. They seem to have been made-up.
Eg what does RTFT mean?

Well, personally, I always boil my potatoes first. wink

Oh my God I am special then. This is great. GN is obviously individually tailored to my needs.

Well, I am on a Samsung phone and the OPs posts are not highlighted (apart from the first one) - to whom do I complain?

Sorry, you're not special enough, Kitty

I feel unchosen in every way on GN so stop stealing all the thunder.

I'm Penny Plain as well, although I'd like to be Tuppence Coloured ☹

Might highlighting of OPs depend on one's browser as well as one's device?

They are highlighted on both my laptop and my phone and my own posts on whatever thread are highlighted too. Green for OPs; GN muddy pink for me.
