I laugh when people put + 2 and then + 3. They talking on behalf of their friends?

It's completely ridiculous. If someone makes a statement of fact on a bulletin board, then people should just leave it there with no need to comment or repeat the same thing. But no, the idiot collective think that by putting +1 or +2 makes the previous comment somehow more valuable and believable
It's not ebay, we're not bidding for right answers!!

+1 is a convenient way of saying that someone else has already put the same opinion that you feel.

None of them are as bad as when someone posts a huge load of photos, then someone replies with the quote button, the whole lot gets put on the thread again and they reply with one line saying "thats nice" or something just as short!

The "+1" has been around internet forums for a lot longer than Passionford mate.... Same with LOL, ROFL, PMSL, etc etc... Just cos you didn't see it before, doesn't mean it wasn't there

Thats not an abbreviation
"Bye" is an abbreviation of goodbye, and people say that all the time.
What you are talking about is something different, its an acronym.
