I see you put a question mark after your full stops. full stops are the end of a sentence, and you're starting your next sentence with a question mark?

two can play at that game matey.

It isn't a full stop, it's an ellipsis which is also known as an mission marks or a suspension. It is used to show the sentence is deliberately unfinished, and shows that the writer has simply "tailed off" into silence, deliberately leaving something unsaid.

So I'm completely entitled to place a question mark after the ellipsis.

And because you seemed to have interpreted what was simply an off-hand remark about randomly dropping capital letters from your posts as a personal affront, I have went into this detailed explanation over grammar. Let's stop it now.

Actually, Ronn, I hate to break it to you, but your new habit is actually in violation of site policy.

I'm afraid I can't do periods. Don't want to get too technical as to why so all I'll say is that it's because I'm a dude. ;)

You and your silly UK vernacular. Full stops, whatever. :P

We say 'full stop' in Australia, too, but I say 'period' here because the main language of the Internet is American.

You mean "American English" surely. ;)

Or the worst name "English (US)". Just a tad contradictive, that.

German is the language of Gods. English is a Germanic language. American English is English for people who got too used to spelling words exactly as they sound.....I blame the Romans.
