Did you mean: 

Exclamation points!!!

Anyone notice how there's an increase of buyers who message with multiple sentences ending in exclamation points? Do sellers do this too? I've always thought to use that punctuation sparingly. To me, I see it right up there as typing with caps.

I've probably received more exclamation point messages from buyers than I've noticed because I only usually catch them when it's a buyer who sent multiple messages within a short timeframe. Although I've gotten quite a few from different buyers over the weekends whose initial message is "Did you send it yet!" 

Happy Holidays

I love the buyers who are so mad they mis-spell words or can complete an English sentence. Its real funny sometimes.


I don't have spelling issues, but I'm always in such a hurry to finish that I leave out entire.

What I do wonder at is all the people who seem compelled to end their statements with "Just sayin'" - that can die already.


It annoys me when people use the phrase "if you will". Sounds like a sentence filler to me.

Or writers who put "And with that..." after a character makes a statement. Verbal throat clearing.


Hell is empty. And all the devils are here.

You need the interrobang.

How do you type interrobang?

Interrobang. Shortcut: Ctrl+Shift+/ writes an interrobang character.

Re: Exclamation points!!!

I have some very dramatic repeat buyers who always communicate with multiple exclamation points.

 

I love them dearly, as I do the money they spend.

 

I am sure that in person, one can hear those exclamation points when they speak.

It would be better if they ended their statements with, "Just sayin!!!!"

I wish a buyer would message me, and they can use any punctuation they want if they're actually going to buy something.
