I keep seeing it after posts in MPSIMS - ‘Kinda TMI’ ‘Probably a bit TMI’ ‘Could be TMI’ ‘Possibly TMI’
whatever it is - nobody seems to be able to decide weither their post is it or not.
I know the answer is probably embarrasingly obvious. But you don’t know [even the obvious things] uuntil you ask.
And the reason for this is that what may be TMI for one person is not for another, so it’s up to the reader to judge whether they want to even open the thread.
Me? I normally open it right up.
IANAL - I am not a lawyer - While I may be talking about legal matters, it’s not the profession I’ve trained in, so get confirmation with a real professional before you do something that could get you in trouble.
IAAL - I am a lawyer
‘L’ can be replaced with other letters (most commonly ‘D’ for Doctor in threads seeking medical advice) to indicate other professions, but (other than ‘D’) these are not as common and should probably include an explanation of what you’re referring to.
