one rarely uses the term "IMO" one, with intelligence enough to actually hold a conversation with another, would know the difference.You see it typed over, and over on the forum boards though. It is odd.
I think more than distinguishing fact from opinion, it might be that we feel the need to be extra careful how people percieve us, because others only know us by what we type, our written word. We can't use other forms of nonverbal and verbal cues..so I think it's just an extra precaution people take...an insurance policy so to speak.
