Why so many ?'s????????

[lovemachine]

Lately, there have been thread titles with a bunch of question marks.
For example:

Which holster?????
Which gun?????

I don't get it. 1 question mark is all you need. What's the point of having multiple question marks?

 

[eldirector]

Maybe they REALLY want to know?

What do you mean exactly??????????

 

[gungirl65]

It makes the question more intense? I take it as someone is saying, I have no clue what to do, please help me.

My favorite are the ones who are so busy that they don't have time to write out the whole word:

"? for hunters"

"ur never going to believe this!!!!"

"y do people..."

 

[Sylvain]

I have no idea why they do that!!!!!!!

And then you have the guys who make an entire post in "text" talk.

I hate "ur" with a passion that is not reasonable. If you want me to hate you, just type "ur a liar" and you will be put on a list no one should want to be on.

I'll use multiple exclamation points to compound the conveyance of excitement.

I only use multiple question marks with multiple exclamation points for a very feisty yelling kind of question.

E.g. "Are you freakin nuts?!?!?!?!"

ur a liar

I just assume those people are about 12-13 years old. Call me old fashioned, but I don't even like the "txt" spelling when I'm texting. They don't charge by the letter, folks.

I hate text spelling. My texts look like emails. With spelled out words and punctuation...the whole shabang.

The only time I'll used any "text spelling" is if I'm texting someone who has a carrier that I know doesn't combine long texts as 1. so if my text is over by a few characters, I'll edit a few words down to make it only 144 characters long. But I always feel like I die a little inside when I do. But I figure it's better than them gettting a second text that just says "lat tire".

Awesome, didn't know I could still post while banned. So, the big question is what am I actually banned from?

I have a problem writing in text too. It's hard to intentionally spell things wrong. I have to capitalize & use punctuation. Although I admit I am OK with using & instead of having to type and. Does that mean I am not completely OCD???????
