It can be off-putting at times so I possibly would do the same. (unless he is uber hot). |

Uber hot. Uber.
I’ll send him a pic of my face, that should stop the madness. |

yes....but what drives me more bonkers is when they have used their phone emojis and all i see is a ?? or a ????!
It's not shallow btw, it's knowing how much more irritating it could become so I would say its damage limitation |

"low levels of grammar equals low levels of intellectual substance lol! ! ! ? ? ? xxx"
I would tend to disagree with your statement, I have never been good at grammar but being a highly respected professional engineer in R&D and being on the engineering council register would indicate that my intellectual status is higher than most. |

As annoying as poor grammar is, and I find it really bugs the life out of me sometimes, it's not the end of the world. He might be great to chat to in person so don't write him off just yet. |

I tend to use double question marks sometimes when I’m asking a sarcastic question or double (or more) exclamation marks when answering sarcastically but I don’t know where it’s come from. Just something that started happening and I don’t know why. A bit like shoertening the word though to tho. Bad habits that I need beating (pleasurably) to remove |

Sounds a bit like me as I'm fond of ellipses, the odd exclamation mark or three. |

There's only 10 types of people, when it comes to understanding binary code. Those that do and those that don't.
I worked out your code 
It's two words that are in cryptic crossword fashion
1. Goes into cork, with some bottle (5)
2. The Queen won't say this word to one(3) |

It's almost as bad as a sentence, note sentence, not question, that finishes with a question mark?
ARGH! (deliberate use of an exclamation mark there  ) |

Yes. Along with the guys who have a one paragraph profile with no full stops and the ones who put 'lol' at the end of every bloody sentence. Not funny ! |

Well on the plus side, he may be better orally than with a pen and paper. I don’t think poor punctuation is necessarily equated with substandard intelligence. Even writers have editors and proof readers after all. |

If he speaks with exclamation marks, then you're in trouble.
It would irritate me, but if his style is good ( despite the !!! ) and he's hotter than a hot thing from Hotsville, then perhaps let it slide? |

Talking to you? You hadn't even posted.
Still doesn't distract from it being an exclamation mark, not an explanation mark. |

I disagree, English is a very difficult language with alot of rules and some exceptions that you are just meant to remember.
I personally don't think it a sign of unintelligence.
Though I don't reply to messages in text speak as that just shows poor effort. |

Txt so often lacks all the non verbal signals that make up such an important part of communication.
If other choose to use emoji or punctuation to try and add some expression to txt where is the problem.
If it annoys that much it's simple, tell them, ignore them, or meet them and see if it's just another attempt to find a way to bring some additional expression to the limitations of txt as a means of communication.
Helpful OP???? |

Personally I am a fan of repeated punctuation in short messages, it is the original emoji, and I find myself regretting the punctuation options removed by concatenation at the start of the printing industry.
¿Why do we no longer mark a question in full?

Ha!
This thread made me laugh.
Although I do use the exclamation mark more on here than I would do in real life. It’s a bit like an extra emoji.
But like many things in life, sometimes less is more. |

English is a difficult language.
We have two identical words... which sound different , and mean different things
For instance
See and sea
Here and hear
No and know
So confusing for so many people . |

"Handsome bloke just messaged me!
He uses exclamation marks after every sentence! Sometimes more that one!!!
Sometimes they are not even full sentences! Now I just can’t bring myself to reply!!! He will answer and do more!
Then I will hate myself even more for finding it so irritating!!!
Does it drive you bonkers?"
why!! Just don’t see what the problem is!! He might have phone issues!! He’s not shouting really!!!! |

Yesh, that is almost as bad as locked CAPS. Im not really a big fan of text speech, leaves a lot to be misinterpreted ,especially when some people dont know or don't use basic fundimentals |

Yea, this.
I don’t find this as annoying as the misplaced apostrophe before an s just because there happens to be an s after a word or a plural of a word,
It’s gotten so bad I even see printed letters on vending machines with a misplaced apostrophe. And this is the country that invented the language! |
