Comments when awarding "Karma" on forum posts

Ask us anything. Cambodia Expats Online has a huge community of long-term expats that can answer any question you may have about life in Cambodia. Have some questions you want to ask before you move to Cambodia? Ask them here. Our community can also answer any questions you have about how to find a job or what kind of work is available for expats in Cambodia, whether you're looking for info about Phnom Penh, Siem Reap, or anywhere else in the Kingdom. You're also welcome to ask about visa and work permit questions as well, as the immigration rules change often, especially since COVID-19. Don't be shy, ask CEO's community anything!

I see many different users doing so and I have a question; what do these mean?

It only happens on CEO as far as I have noticed

PM = point made?
IDK, hence the thread


Thanks

People aren’t seriously seeing pm and am and thinking that’s part of a thumbs up comment, are they?

Here's an example of a "pm" comment. It's far from exclusive to the user "Random Dude"

It’s not a comment, it’s 4:01 pm. Ghostwriter is the only one who left a comment in the examples you listed.
